Answer:
a) Acceleration of the car is given as
b) Acceleration of the truck is given as
Explanation:
As we know that there is no external force in the direction of motion of truck and car
So here we can say that the momentum of the system before and after collision must be conserved
So here we will have
now we have
a) For acceleration of car we know that it is rate of change in velocity of car
so we have
b) For acceleration of truck we will find the rate of change in velocity of the truck
so we have
Answer:
3.467 s
Explanation:
given,
distance , d = 49 mm = 0.049 m
initial speed of the of the rock, v = 17 m/s
time taken by the Heather rock to reach water
using equation of motion
taking downward as negative
4.9 t² + 17 t - 0.049 = 0
now,
t₁ = -3.47 s , 0.0028 s
rejecting negative values
t₁ = 0.0028 s
now, time taken by the ball of Jerry
using equation of motion
taking downward as negative
4.9 t² - 17 t - 0.049 = 0
now,
t₂ = 3.47 s ,-0.0028 s
rejecting negative values
t₂ = 3.47 s
now, time elapsed is = t₂ - t₁ = 3.47 - 0.0028 = 3.467 s
