To solve this problem we will apply the principle of conservation of energy and the definition of kinematic energy as half the product between mass and squared velocity. So,


Here,
m = Mass
V = Velocity
Replacing,


Therefore the final kinetic energy of the two car system is 72.6kJ
Answer:
<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>
<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>
Explanation:
Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft
difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft
a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.
According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,
your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>
b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.
the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,
the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,
therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>
Answer:
I'm pretty sure it's 3.
Explanation:
Because if you look at your options the only that would be relevant to tick marks would be either 4 or 3. And it said in the question that we're looking for the one for the dependent variable. And the dependent variable is on the Y- Axis and the 3 is the tick marks for the y-axis. So your answer is 3.
