Answer:
there will be collision
Explanation:
= speed of sue = 34 m/s
= speed of van = 5.20 m/s
= speed of sue relative to van =
= 34 - 5.20 = 28.8 m/s
= stopping distance after brakes are applied
= distance between sue and van = 160 m
= final speed of sue = 0 m/s
= acceleration = - 1.80 m/s²
Using the kinematics equation


m
Since
hence there will be collision
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
momentum depends on weight and speed
We can use the equation vf (the final velocity) =vi (the initial velocity) +at (aceleration times time)
We know the final velocity 100m/s, the initial velocity 0, and the acceleration (gravity) 9.8m/s^2. So, 100=0+9.8t. t=100/9.8
Answer:
b. 4 ms-2
Explanation:
acceleration = velocity / time
By definition, the momentum is given by:
p = m * v
Where,
m = mass
v = speed.
On the other hand,
F = m * a
Where,
m = mass
a = acceleration:
For the boy we have:
p1 = m * v
p1 = (F / a) * v
p1 = ((710) / (9.81)) * (0.50)
p1 = 36.19 Kg * (m / s)
For the girl we have:
p2 = m * v
p2 = (F / a) * v
p2 = ((480) / (9.81)) * (v)
p2 = 48.93 * v Kg * (m / s)
Then, we have:
p1 + p2 = 0
36.19 + 48.93 * v = 0
Clearing v:
v = - (36.19) / (48.93)
v = -0.74 m / s (negative because the velocity is in the opposite direction of the boy's)
Answer:
the girl's velocity in m / s after they push off is -0.74 m / s
