two cars collide at an intersection. one car has a mass of 1600 kg and is moving 8 m/s to the north, while the other has a mass

of 1400 kg and is moving 12 m/s to the south. what is the combined momentum?

Answer:

27 . 10^-7 or 27/1000

Explanation:

We use the Coulomb Law

k = Coloumb Constant

q1 and q2 are the charges

d is the distance between the spheres

A bodybuilder loads a bar with 550 Newtons (~125 pounds) of weight and pushes the bar over her head 10 times. Each time she lift

mafiozo [28]

Work = (force) x (distance)

Each time she lifts the weight, she does

(550 N) x (0.5 m) = 275 joules of work against gravity.

Each time she lets the bar down gently, gravity does

(550 N) x (0.5 m) = 275 joules of work against her muscles.

If the human physical muscular system were 100% efficient, and capable
of absorbing work as well as spending it, then the bodybuilder would do
exactly zero work in the process of 1-up followed by 1-down.

A car slows down from speed of 72

Nastasia [14]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 72km/hr

Final velocity = 0km/hr

Time taken = 25s

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, convert km/hr to m/s;

1000m = 1km

3600s = 1hr

72km/hr;

1km/hr = 0.278m/s

72km/hr = 0.278 x 72 = 20.02m/s

Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the time taken;

Acceleration = $\frac{final velocity - initial velocity }{time}$

Acceleration = $\frac{0 - 20.02}{25}$ = -0.8m/s

The car is actually decelerating at a rate of 0.8m/s
