Answer:
The value is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The velocity is [/tex]
The time taken is
The time taken for contact is
The velocity of the of the car after contact is [/tex]
From the equation of kinematics we have that
Here u = 0 \ m/s since the car is initially motionless
=>
=>
Answer:
a) 11 m/s
b) 0.0564 s
Explanation:
Given:
m = 2100 kg
vi = 22 ..... m/s before collision
vf = 0 ......after collision to stop
Δs = 0.62 distance traveled after collision .. crumpling of truck
Part a
Part b
Answer:
5 hours
Explanation:
Let the required time be x hours. The time will be the same for both cars.
The cars will cover different distances because they are travelling at different speeds.
<em>D=S×T </em>
The distance travelled by the slower car = 50×x miles.
The distance travelled by the faster car = 58×x miles.
The two distances differ by 40 miles.
58x−50x=40
8x=40
x=5 hours
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A second method:
The difference in the distances is 40 miles
The difference in the speeds is #8mph.
The time to make up the 40 miles= =5 hours
