Answer:

He traveled 9km

Explanation:

To do this problem you need to use the equation which is Speed= distance/time and this problem gives you the speed which is 18 km/h and it gives you the time 1/2 hour so you write the equation 18= d/ 1/2 which his distance is 9km

On a cold winter day, a penny (mass 2.50 g) and a nickel (mass 5.00 g) are lying on the smooth (frictionless) surface of a froze

Answer:

0.78333 m/s in the opposite direction

1.566 m/s in the same direction

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of penny = 0.0025 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of nickel = 0.005 kg

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of penny = 2.35 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of nickel = 0 m/s

$v_1$ = Final Velocity of penny

$v_2$ = Final Velocity of nickel

As momentum and Energy is conserved

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}$

${\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{1}u_{1}^{2}+{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{2}u_{2}^{2}={\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}+{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}$

From the two equations we get

$v_{1}=\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_1=\frac{0.0025-0.005}{0.0025+0.005}\times 2.35+\frac{2\times 0.5}{0.4005+0.5}\times 0\\\Rightarrow v_1=-0.78333\ m/s$

The final velocity of the penny is 0.78333 m/s in the opposite direction

$v_{2}=\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{2\times 0.0025}{0.0025+0.005}\times 2.35+\frac{0.005-0.0025}{0.005+0.0025}\times 0\\\Rightarrow v_2=1.566\ m/s$
