Ms. Garcia’s car can go from rest to 25 m/s in 10 seconds. The car’s velocity changes at a uniform rate. How far does the car tr
vampirchik [111]

We will use this equation:

s = 1/2*a*t^2 + v0*t + s0

where:

s = space traveled

a = acceleration

t = time

v0 = initial speed

s0 = initial space

In this case::

v0 = 0

s0 = 0

So our equation will look like that now:

s = 1/2 * a * t^2

let's calculate the acceleration first of all:

a = (vf - vi) / t

where vf is the final speed and vi is the initial speed. t is the time.

a = (25m/s) / 10s = 2.5 m/s^2

Now we can calculate the space:

s = 1/2 * (2.5 m/s^2) * (10s)^2 = 125m

Hope it was helpful! Have a great day.

Two hockey pucks, labeled A and B, are initially at rest on a smooth ice surface and are separated by a distance of 18.0 m . Sim
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The distance covered by puck A before collision is  z = 8.56 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The label on the two hockey pucks is  A and  B

    The distance between the  two hockey pucks is D   18.0 m

     The speed of puck A is  v_A =  3.90 \ m/s

        The speed of puck B is  v_B  =  4.30 \ m/s

The distance covered by puck A is mathematically represented as

     z =  v_A * t

  =>  t  =  \frac{z}{v_A}

 The distance covered by puck B  is  mathematically represented as

      18 - z =  v_B  * t

=>   t  = \frac{18 - z}{v_B}

Since the time take before collision is the same

        \frac{18 - z}{V_B}  =  \frac{z}{v_A}

substituting values

          \frac{18 -z }{4.3}  = \frac{z}{3.90}

=>      70.2 - 3.90 z   = 4.3 z

=>       z = 8.56 \ m

A 2.0 kg mass moving at 5.0 m/s suddenly collides head-on with a 3.0 kg mass at rest. If the collision is perfectly inelastic, h
liberstina [14]

Answer:

correct answer is (c) 15 J

Explanation:

given data

mass m1 = 2 kg

velocity V1 = 5 m/s

mass other  = 3 kg

so mass m2 = 2+ 3 kg = 5 kg

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum:

m1V1 = m2V2  ..........................1

put here value and we get  velocity v2

(2.0) × (5.0) = (2.0 + 3.0) × V

solve it we get

10 = 5 × V 2

V2 = 2.0 m/s

so here kinetic energy will be

KE = ½ × m × v²

so

∆KE = ½ × m1 × (v1)²  -  ½  × m2 × (v2) ²

∆KE = 0.5 × 2 × 25 - 0.5 × 5 × 4

 ∆KE = 25 - 10

∆KE  = 15 J
