The answer is C : 15.7 m/s
Use the idea of : momentum before collision = momentum after collision
Before collision;
For car:mass=1.1×10^3, velocity=22
For truck:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=0
After collision;
For car:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=-11
For truck:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=V
(1.1×10^3 × 22) + (2.3×10^3 × 0) = (1.1×10^3 × -11) + (2.3×10^3 × V)
24200 = -12100 + 2.3×10^3V
2.3×10^3V = 36300
V = 15.7 m/s
Explanation:
(1) The nucleus is positive and the electron cloud is positive.
(2) The nucleus is positive and the electron cloud is negative.
(3) The nucleus is negative and the electron cloud is positive.
(4) The nucleus is negative and the electron cloud is negative
