Answer:

Negative acceleration occurs when an object slows down in the positive direction.

Negative acceleration occurs when an object speeds up in the negative direction.

Positive acceleration occurs when an object speeds up in the positive direction.

Positive acceleration occurs when an object slows down in the negative direction.

Explanation:

Basically same sign is speeding up and different sign is slowing down

At the intersection of Texas Avenue and University Drive,

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The initial speed of the truck is 21.93 m/s, and the initial speed of the car is 19.524 m/s

Explanation:

We can use conservation of momentum to find the initial velocities.

Taking the unit vector $\hat{i}$ pointing north and $\hat{j}$ pointing east, the final velocity will be

$\vec{V}_f = 16.0 \frac{m}{s} \ ( \ cos(24.0 \°) \ , \ sin (24.0 \°) \ )$

$\vec{V}_f = ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )$

The final linear momentum will be:

$\vec{P}_f = (m_{car}+ m_{truck}) * V_f$

$\vec{P}_f = (950 \ kg \ + 1900 \ kg \ ) * ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )$

$\vec{P}_f = (2.850 \ kg \ ) * ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )$

$\vec{P}_f = ( \ 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s} \ , \ 18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} \ )$

As there are not external forces, the total linear momentum must be constant.

So:

$\vec{P}_0= \vec{P}_f$

As initially the car is travelling east, and the truck is travelling north, the initial linear momentum must be

$\vec{P}_0= ( m_{truck} * v_{truck}, m_{car}* v_{car} )$

so:

$\vec{P}_0= \vec{P}_f$

$( m_{truck} * v_{truck}, m_{car}* v_{car} ) = ( \ 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s} \ , \ 18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} \ )$

$\left \{ {{m_{truck} \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s} } \atop {m_{car} \ v_{car}=18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} }} \right.$

So, for the truck

$m_{truck} \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}$

$1900 \ kg \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}$

$v_{truck} = \frac{41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}}{1900 \ kg}$

$v_{truck} = 21.93 \frac{m}{s}$

And, for the car

$950 \ kg \ v_{car}=18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s}$

$v_{car}=\frac{18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s}}{950 \ kg}$

$v_{car}=19.524 \frac{m}{s}$
