Answer:

2.1 m/s

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum;

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and u2 are the initial velocities

v is the common velocity

Given

m1 = 2150kg

m2 = 3250kg

u1 = 10.0m/s

u2 = ?

v = 5.22m/s

Substitute and get u2

2150(10) + 3250u2 = (2150+3250)5.22

21,500 + 3250u2 = 5400(5.22)

3250u2 = 28,188 - 21500

3250u2 = 6688

u2 = 6688/3250

u2 = 2.1 m/s

Hence the 3250 kg car’s initial velocity has an initial velocity of  2.1 m/s

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Chemical energy is converted to thermal energy and electrical energy.

Explanation:

The sugar present in the apple is broken down into Glucose. This is chemical energy stored in the apple which is broken down into energy which is utilized by body for everyday works. The chemical energy gets converted to thermal energy which warms the body and electrical energy due to which the heart beats.

Determine how many times per second it would move back and forth across a 6.0-m-long room on the average, assuming it made very
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The right solution is "24.39 per sec".

Explanation:

According to the question,

⇒ v=\frac{502.1}{\sqrt{3} }

      =289.9 \ m/s

The time will be:

⇒ t=\frac{d}{v}

      =\frac{2\times 6}{289.9}

      =\frac{12}{289.9}

      =0.041 \ sec

hence,

⇒ N=\frac{1}{t}

        =\frac{1}{0.041}

        =24.39 \ per \ sec

Changes of state
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

At segment T-U, the substance changes from a liquid to a gas and does not change temperature.

The reason is because latent heat of vaporisation allows for the absorption of heat in the change of state and temperature remains constant until it has fully changed state.
