Answer:
, where the minus indicates the direction is opposite to that of the throw.
Explanation:
a)
Since MKS stands for meter-kilogram-second and we know that:



We can write that:



These are conversion factors, equal to 1, so multiplying our results by them won't change their value, only their units.
So we have that:



b)
Newton's 2nd Law tells us that F=ma, and the definition of acceleration is
, so we have:

Taking the throw direction as the positive one, for our values we have:

Answer:
24.8m/s
Explanation:
Given data
m1= 10kg
u1=25m/s
m2=17kg
u2=16m/s
v1=10m/s
v2=??
Applying the conservation of linear momentum
m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2
substitute
10*25+17*16=10*10+17*v2
250+272=100+17v2
522=100+17v2
522-100=17v2
422=17v2
Divide both sides by 17
v2= 422/17
v2= 24.8 m/s
Hence the velocity of the red cart is 24.8m/s in the opposite direction of the blue cart
Answer:
F = 1,875 N
Explanation:
force=

∆H = m∆V
where ∆H ----> change in momentum.
( final momentum - initial momentum )
and ∆V ----> change in velocity
( final velocity - initial velocity )
and m ----> is mass
then f =

= 1,875 N
