Answer:

The collision is inelastic

Explanation:

There are two kinds of collision; elastic collision and inelastic collision. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

However, in an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved. So, when the bumper of two cars collide, the cars come to a stop because the collision is inelastic.

andrey2020 [161]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force, F=(-8\ N)i+(6\ N)j

Position vector, r=(3i+4j)\ m

(a) The torque on the particle about the origin is given by :

\tau=F\times r\\\\\tau=(-8i+6j)\times (3i+4j)\\\\\tau=(-50k)\ N-m

(b) To find the angle between r and F use dot product formula as :

F{\cdot} r=|F||r|\ \cos\theta\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{F{\cdot} r}{|F| |r|}\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{(-8i+6j){\cdot} (3i+4j)}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{-24+24}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=0\\\\\theta=90^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.

Help me to solve it . It’s urgent
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: 0°

Explanation:

Step 1: Squaring the given equation and simplifying it

Let θ be the angle between a and b.

Given: a+b=c

Squaring on both sides:

... (a+b) . (a+b) = c.c

> |a|² + |b|² + 2(a.b) = |c|²

> |a|² + |b|² + 2|a| |b| cos 0 = |c|²

a.b = |a| |b| cos 0]

We are also given;

|a+|b| = |c|

Squaring above equation

> |a|² + |b|² + 2|a| |b| = |c|²

Step 2: Comparing the equations:

Comparing eq( insert: small n)(1) and (2)

We get, cos 0 = 1

> 0 = 0°

Final answer: 0°

Mass×acceleration of a triangle =force​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The force acting on a body is always equal to the product of the mass of the body and its acceleration.

Explanation:

The force of a body is defined as the product of mass and acceleration of the body.

According to Newton's second law, wherever there is a change in momentum of the body for an interval of time, there is a force acting on it.

                         F = (mv - mu) / t

                             = m (v -u) /t

                              = m a

Where,

                                 (v - u)/t - is the change in velocity of the body in the interval of time. It is equal to the acceleration of the body.

Hence, the equation for the force for any body becomes, F = m x a
