2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Given that,
Mass of Jeremy is 120 kg (
)
Speed of Jeremy is 3 m/s (
)
Speed of Jeremy after collision is (
) -2.5 m/s
Mass of Hans is 140 kg (
)
Speed of Hans is -2 m/s (
)
Speed of Hans after collision is (
)
Linear momentum is defined as “mass time’s speed of the vehicle”. Linear momentum before the collision of Jeremy and Hans is
= 
Substitute the given values,
= 120 × 3 + 140 × (-2)
= 360 + (-280)
= 80 kg m/s
Linear momentum after the collision of Jeremy and Hans is
= 
= 120 × (-2.5) + 140 × 
= -300 + 140 × 
We know that conservation of liner momentum,
Linear momentum before the collision = Linear momentum after the collision
80 = -300 + 140 × 
80 + 300 = 140 × 
380 = 140 × 
380/140= 
= 2.71 m/s
2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.
Answer:
1.19 hours
Explanation:
divide distance by speed. hope this helps
Answer:
0.011 m.
Explanation:
Energy stored in the spring = Energy of the projectile.
1/2ke² = mgh ................ Equation 1
Where k = spring constant, e = extension or compression, m = mass of the projectile, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.
make e the subject of the equation
e = √(2mgh/k)............................. Equation 2
Given: k = 12 N/cm = 1200 N/m, m = 15 g = 0.015 kg, h = 5.0 m
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute into equation 2
e = √(2×0.015×5/1200)
e = √(0.15/1200)
e = √(0.000125)
e = 0.011 m.
