An 800 kg fishing boat going south at 12 m/s runs into a stopped pontoon boat (1400 kg). The boats stick together and move south

. What is the velocity of the boats after the collision?

Answer:

the velocity of the boats after the collision is 4.36 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of fish, m₁ = 800 kg

mass of boat, m₂ = 1400 kg

initial velocity of the fish, u₁ = 12 m/s

initial velocity of the boat, u₂ = 0

let the final velocity of the fish-boat after collision = v

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

800 x 12    +   1400 x 0 = v(800 + 1400)

9600 = 2200v

v = 9600/2200

v = 4.36 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the boats after the collision is 4.36 m/s.

frutty [35]

Newton's subsequent law expresses that power is corresponding to what exactly is needed for an object of consistent mass to change its speed. This is equivalent to that item's mass increased by its speed increase.

We use Newtons, kilograms, and meters each second squared as our default units, albeit any proper units for mass (grams, ounces, and so forth) or speed (miles each hour out of every second, millimeters per second², and so on) could unquestionably be utilized also - the estimation is the equivalent notwithstanding.

Hence, the appropriate answer will be 399,532.

Net Force = 399532

How fast, in rpm, would a 5.6 kg, 25-cm-diameter bowling ball have to spin to have an angular momentum of 0.26 kgm2/s
solong [7]

Answer:

71 rpm

Explanation:

Given that:

Angular momentum (L) = 0.26

Diameter = 25cm = 0.25 cm

Radius, r = (d/2) = 0.125m

Mass = 5.6 kg

Moment of inertia (I) = 2mr² / 5

I = (2 * 5.6 * 0.125^2) / 5

= 0.175

= 0.175 / 5

= 0.035 kgm²

Angular speed (w) ;

w = L / I

w = 0.26 / 0.035

= 7.4285714

= 7.429 rad/s

w = (7.429 * 60/2π)

w = 445.74 / 2π rpm

w = 70.941724

Angular speed = 70.94 rpm

= 71 rpm
