After a hold up, Robin Banks flees in his 1575 kg getaway car at 20 m/s. He crashes into a 45 kg highway barrel which is at rest

. If Robin Bank’s car moves at 18.9 m/s after the collision, how fast does the barrel move after being hit?

Answer:

v = 38.9 m/s

Explanation:

v = 38.5 m/s

Explanation:

P1 = P2 (conservation law of linear momentum)

(1575 kg)(20 m/s) + (45 m/s)(0) = (1575 kg)(18.9 m/s) + 45v

Solving for v

v = 38.5 m/s

Water is drawn from a well in a bucket tied to the end of a rope whose other end wraps around a solid cylinder of mass 50 kg and
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

\alpha=78.4\ rad.s^{-2}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of solid cylinder, m=50\ kg
  • diameter of cylinder, d=0.25\ m
  • mass of bucket of water, m_w=20\ kg

<em>When the bucket is released to fall in the well, it fall under the acceleration due to gravity.</em>

We have formula for angular acceleration as:

\alpha=\frac{g}{r}

where:

g = acceleration due to gravity

r = radius of the cylinder

\aplha=\frac{9.8}{0.125}

\alpha=78.4\ rad.s^{-2}

What is the wavelength of a wave with a frequency of 200Hz while traveling at 125.5m/s
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

0.6275 metres

Explanation:

v = fl

125.5 = 200 * wavelength

125.5 / 200 = wavelength = 0.6275m

A 5kg object is moving at a height of 2 m. The potential energy of the object is closest to ___ j
elena55 [62]

Answer:

In this case, a body of mass 5 kg kept at a height of 10 m. So the potential energy is given as 5 * 10 *10 = 500 J.

Could the earth have decreased when the astroid hit
Anarel [89]

If an asteroid were to strike land or a shallow body of water, it would eject an enormous amount of dust, ash, and other material into the atmosphere, blocking the radiation from the Sun. This would cause the global temperature to decrease drastically..

You have two electrical devices plugged into the same socket in parallel and draws 120 V. The first device has a resistance of 2
erik [133]

The devices don't "draw" 120v. The 120v comes to your house from the power company. They decide it should be 120v and that's what they send you. It's hypothetically technically possible for you to change that, but if you try it, you'll definitely burn the house down.

The total resistance of those two devices in parallel is 6 and 2/3 ohms. That doesn't depend on what they're plugged into. It would still be 6 and 2/3 ohms if they were connected in parallel, wrapped in tissue, sealed in a jar of chicken soup and stored in a box on a high shelf.

But since they ARE plugged into 120v, they draw 18 Amperes from the socket, and they turn all of that electrical energy into 2160 watts of heat. That's about the same as a good size toaster oven, and you have to figure out a way to get rid of all that heat before you burn the house down.
