Answer:

1.785 m/s

Explanation:

The momentum can be calculated using the expression below

M1 *V1 + M2 * V2 = (M1+M2) V3

M1= mass of van=9000 kg

M2= mass of car= 850kg

V3= velocity of entangled car

V1= Velocity of the van= 0

V2= velocity of the car= 5 m/ s

Substitute the values

(900×0) + (500×5)=( 900+500)× V3

2500=1400 V3

V3=2500/1400

V3= 1.785 m/s

Hence, velocity of the entangled cars after collision is 1.785 m/s

Question 2 (1 point)
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Actually, there is  no force (felt by the object) acting on the object.

It is similar to an  object in orbit around the earth (weightlessness)

F = M a    describes the motion of the particle where

M a = M g    where the acceleration of the particle is equal to the force of gravity acting on the particle

From an external view the only force acting on the particle is M g and it produces an acceleration of M g

It takes Serina 0.25 hours to drive to school. Her route is 16 km long. What is Serina’s average speed on her drive to school?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

17.78 m/s

Explanation:

Average speed is found by simply dividing the distance travelled by the time that it took to finish the trip. It's measured in meters per second (m/s), so first convert the quantities.

1 km = 1000 m, so 16 km is 16000 m

0.25 hours is 15 minutes. Since 1 minute is 60 seconds, then 15 minutes must be 900 seconds.

Thus:

average speed = total distance/total time = 16000 m / 900 s = 17.78 m/s

Hope this helps!

Brainliest please!
