Answer: 11 km/h at 339° compass

Explanation:

A sees B moving south at 0 km/h

A is moving north at 12cos30 = 10.392 km/h

Therefore B must be moving north at 10.392 k/h

A is moving east at 12sin30 = 6 km/h

B appears to be moving west at 10 km/h

Therefore B must be moving west at 10 - 6 = 4 km/h

B is moving v = √(4² + 10.392²) = 11.135... 11 km/h

θ = arctan( -4 / 10.392) = -21.05 = 339°

How would life on earth be different if earth’s axis were not tilted with respect to its orbit?
Vladimir [108]

If Earth's axis was "straight up and down" instead of tilted, then ...

<span>-- There would be no seasons.

-- The climate at any one place would be the same all year around. 

-- The days would be the same length, everywhere,
    and all year around.

-- So would the nights.

-- The sun would be up a little more than 12 hours every day.
    It would be down a little less than 12 hours every day.

-- At the middle of the day, the sun would be at the same height
   in the sky all year around, not higher in some months and lower
   in others.

-- The equator would be the only place on Earth where the sun
    could ever be directly over your head.

-- If you were at the north pole or the south pole, the sun would be
   down on the horizon, and it would just go around and around you
   every day.  It would never rise or set, and it would never get any
   higher or lower.

If a ping pong ball and a golf ball are both moving in the same direction with the same amount of kinetic energy, the speed of t
Liono4ka [1.6K]

If the kinetic energy of each ball is equal to that of the other,
then

(1/2) (mass of ppb) (speed of ppb)² = (1/2) (mass of gb) (speed of gb)²

Multiply each side by 2:

      (mass of ppb) (speed of ppb)² = (mass of gb) (speed of gb)²

Divide each side by (mass of gb) and by (speed of ppb)² :

     (mass of ppb)/(mass of gb)  =  (speed of gb)²/(speed of ppb)²

Take square root of each side:

       √ (ratio of their masses)  =  ( 1 / ratio of their speeds)²

By trying to do this perfectly rigorously and elegantly, I'm also
using up a lot of space and guaranteeing that nobody will be
able to follow what I have written.  Let's just come in from the
cold, and say it the clear, easy way:

If their kinetic energies are equal, then the product of each
mass and its speed² must be the same number.

If one ball has less mass than the other one, then the speed²
of the lighter one must be greater than the speed² of the heavier
one, in order to keep the products equal.

The pingpong ball is moving faster than the golf ball.

The directions of their motions are irrelevant.

A cart of mass m = 0.12 kg moves with a speed v = 0.45 m/s on a frictionless air track and collides with an identical cart that
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

0.006075Joules

Explanation:

The final kinetic energy of the system is expressed as;

KE = 1/2(m1+m2)v²

m1 and m2 are the masses of the two bodies

v is the final velocity of the bodies after collision

get the final velocity using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

0.12(0.45) + 0/12(0) = (0.12+0.12)v

0.054 = 0.24v

v = 0.054/0.24

v = 0.225m/s

Get the final kinetic energy;

KE = 1/2(m1+m2)v

KE = 1/2(0.12+0.12)(0.225)²

KE = 1/2(0.24)(0.050625)

KE = 0.12*0.050625

KE = 0.006075Joules

Hence the final kinetic energy of the system is 0.006075Joules
