Answer:
24.084 m/s
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of linear momentum
Total momentum before collision equals to the total momentum after collision
Since momentum=mv where m is mass and v is velocity
where
is the mass of the truck,
is velocity of the truck,
is the common velocity of moving and standing truck after collision and
is the mass of the standing truck
Making
the subject we obtain
Substituting
as 25000 Kg,
as 22.3 m/s,
as 2000 Kg we obtain
Therefore, assuming no friction and considering that after collision they still move eastwards hence common velocity and initial truck velocities are positive
The truck was moving at 24.084 m/s
Answer:
<h2>E. 3.95kW</h2>
Explanation:
Power is defined as the rate of workdone.
Power = Workdone/time taken
Given Workdone = Force * distance
Power = Force * distance/time taken
Power = mgd/t (F = mg)
m = mass of the sand in kg
g = acceleration due to gravity in m/s²
d = vertical distance covered in metres
t = time taken in seconds
Given m = 2000kg, d = 12m, t = 1min = 60secs, g = 9.8m/s²
Power = 2000*9.8*12/60
Power = 3920Watts
Minimum rate of power that must be supplied to this machine is 3920Watts or 3.92kW
Answer:
5 meters per second
Explanation:
5m is the distance
5m west is the vector
5m per second is the velocity
5m per second west is unknown
Answer:

Explanation:
According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electric force between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

Here k is the Coulomb constant. In this case, we have
,
and
. Replacing the values:

The negative sign indicates that it is an attractive force. So, the magnitude of the electric force is:
