Freight car A with a gross weight of 200,000 lbs is moving along the horizontal track in a switching yard at 4 mi/hr. Freight ca
zhenek [66]

Answer: a) 4.7 mi/hr.  b) 86,500 lbs. mi²/Hr²

Explanation:

As in any collision, under the assumption that no external forces exist during the very small collision time, momentum must be conserved.

If the collision is fully inelastic, both masses continue coupled each other as a single mass, with a single speed.

So, we can write the following:

p₁ = p₂ ⇒m₁.v₁ + m₂.v₂ = (m₁ + m₂). vf

Replacing by the values, and solving for vf, we get:

vf = (200,000 lbs. 4 mi/hr + 100,000 lbs. 6 mi/hr) / 300,000 lbs = 4.7 mi/hr

If the track is horizontal, this means that thre is no change in gravitational potential energy, so any loss of energy must be kinetic energy.

Before the collision, the total kinetic energy of the system was the following:

K₁ = 1/2 (m₁.v₁² + m₂.v₂²) = 3,400,000 lbs. mi² / hr²

After the collision, total kinetic energy is as follows:

K₂ = 1/2 ((m₁ + m₂) vf²) = 3,313,500 lbs. mi²/hr²

So we have an Energy loss, equal to the difference between initial kinetic energy and final kinetic energy, as follows:

DE = K₁ - K₂ = 86,500 lbs. mi² / hr²

This loss is due to the impact, and is represented by the work done by friction forces (internal) during the impact.

You hold a metal block of mass 40 kg above your head at a height of 2 m.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The work done by gravity is 784 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the block is, m=40\ kg

Height to which it is raised is, h=2\ m

Acceleration due to gravity is, g=9.8\ m/s^2

Now, work done by gravity is equal to the product of force of gravity and the distance moved in the direction of gravity. So,

\textrm{Work by gravity}=F_g\times h

Force of gravity is given as the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

\therefore F_g=mg=40\times 9.8=392\ N. Now,

\textrm{Work by gravity}=F_g\times h=392\times 2=784\ J

Therefore, the work done by gravity is 784 J.

A 100 Kg man is diving off a 50 meter cliff. What is his kinetic energy when he is 20 meters from the water?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

K.E=29.403125J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass M=100

Height 50-20=30m

Generally the equation for velocity before impact is is is mathematically given by

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2*9.8*30}

v=24.25

Generally the equation for Kinetic Energy is is mathematically given by

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\frac{1}{2}*100*(24.25)^2\\

K.E=29403.125J

K.E=29.403125J
