A 1400 kg car traveling at 17.0 m/s to the south collides with a 4700 kg truck that is at rest. The car and truck stick together

and move together after collision. What is the final velocity of the two-vehicle mass? If Kinetic Energy = 0.5 * m * v^2, calculate the KE before the crash and the KE of the combined vehicles after the crash.

Answer:

Final velocity = 7.677 m/s

KE before crash = 202300 J

KE after crash = 182,702.62 J

Explanation:

We are given;

m1 = 1400 kg

m2 = 4700 kg

u1 = 17 m/s

u2 = 0 m/s

Using formula for inelastic collision, we have;

m1•u1 + m2•u2 = (m1 + m2)v

Where v is final velocity after collision.

Plugging in the relevant values;

(1400 × 17) + (4700 × 0) = (1400 + 1700)v

23800 = 3100v

v = 23800/3100

v = 7.677 m/s

Kinetic energy before crash = ½ × 1400 × 17² = 202300 J

Kinetic energy after crash = ½(1400 + 1700) × 7.677² = 182,702.62 J

Aaden has decided to break up with his significant other. He has gone over what he is going to say, but can not decide where to
kow [346]

Answer:

The correct answer is: b. Channel

Explanation:

The Communication Process Model (CPM) is a model that describes the steps through which effective exchange of information takes place from the  sender of a message to the receiver(s) of the message. (Refer to attached image)

The CPM includes the following steps:

1. Noise- reducing physical/ physiological distractions that can impede clear communication.  

2. Communicator- the person who initiates the communication

3. Message- the information exchanged between the sender and receiver of the message

4. Feedback- How the information from the sender is received by the recipient of the communication

5. Channel- The medium by which the information is delivered from the sender to the receiver.

In this instance, when Aaden decided to have a discussion with his significant other in his home using face-to-face communication, he is deciding on the channel or medium through which the communication will this place. By choosing face-to-face communication at his home, Aaden has determined what he believes is the most appropriate context for the conversation with his significant other, given the sensitive nature of the topic. In this way, Aaden has selected a channel of communication.
