Answer:
1.785 m/s
Explanation:
The momentum can be calculated using the expression below
M1 *V1 + M2 * V2 = (M1+M2) V3
M1= mass of van=9000 kg
M2= mass of car= 850kg
V3= velocity of entangled car
V1= Velocity of the van= 0
V2= velocity of the car= 5 m/ s
Substitute the values
(900×0) + (500×5)=( 900+500)× V3
2500=1400 V3
V3=2500/1400
V3= 1.785 m/s
Hence, velocity of the entangled cars after collision is 1.785 m/s
Answer:
Option B. O because the net force was 5 N in Alfredo's direction
Explanation:
To know the the correct answer to the question given above, we shall determine the net force acting on the bat. This can be obtained as follow:
Force of pull by Mason (Fₘ) = 15 N
Force of pull by Alfredo (Fₐ) = 20 N
Net force (Fₙ) =?
Fₙ = 20 – 15
Fₙ = 5 N in Alfredo's direction
From the calculation made above, we can see that the net force is 5N in Alfredo's direction. This is the reason why Alfredo end up having the bat.
Answer:
1.995 m
Explanation:
Distance of penny as seen by the person = 5 m
Height of person from water surface = 3.50 m
Apparent depth of penny = 5 - 3.50 = 1.5 m
refractive index of water, n = 1.33
real depth / apparent depth = n
real depth = 1.33 x 1.5 = 1.995 m
Thus, the actual depth of water at that point is 1.995 m.
