A) 0
because all of the forces cancel out, so it is not moving with balanced forces.
Answer:
(c) 97 dB sound intensity level
Explanation:
We have given the intensity of the loud car horn 
We know that 
Now the sound intensity level is given by
, which is nearly equal to 97
So the sound intensity level will be 97 dB
So option (c) will be the correct option
Consider velocity to the right as positive.
First mass:
m₁ = 4.0 kg
v₁ = 2.0 m/s to the right
Second mass:
m₂ = 8.0 kg
v₂ = -3.0 m/s to the left
Total momentum of the system is
P = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂
= 4*2 + 8*(-3)
= -16 (kg-m)/s
Let v (m/s) be the velocity of the center of mass of the 2-block system.
Because momentum of the system is preserved, therefore
(m₁+m₂)v= -16
(4+8 kg)*(v m/s) = -16 (kg-m)/s
v = -1.333 m/s
Answer:
The center of mass is moving at 1.33 m/s to the left.
