Answer:

the mass of the truck is 2 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m₁ = 3 kg

initial velocity of the car, u₁ = 40 m/s

initial velocity of the truck, u₂ = 60 m/s

let the mass of the truck = m₂

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momemtum;

m₁u₁ = m₂u₂

m₂ = (m₁u₁) / u₂

m₂ = (3 x 40) / (60)

m₂ = 2 kg

Therefore, the mass of the truck is 2 kg.

The reasoning which is in use when large, angular rocks are interpreted to have originated from the outcrop at the top of the hill is; Fossil succession

<h3>Fossil succession of rocks</h3>

The principle of fossil succession in characterized by the fact that fossil entities succeed one another upward through rock layers in a definite and determinable order.

On this note, any time period can be dated by its fossil content.

While playing a scavenger hunt game, Anthony walks 48.0 m to the south and then walks 12.0 m to the west. What single straight-l
Alenkasestr [34]
As these are distances created by moving in a straight line, using a trigonometric analysis can solve the missing single straight-line displacement. Looking at the 48m and 12m movements as legs of a triangle, obtaining the hypotenuse using the pythagorean theorem will yield us the correct answer.
This is shown below:

c^2 = 48^2 + 12^2
c = sqrt(2304 + 144)
c = sqrt(2448)
c = 49.48 m

To obtain the angle at which Anthony walks 49.48, we obtain the arc tangent of (12/48). This is shown below:

arc tan (12/48) =14.04 degrees.

Therefore, Anthony could have walked 49.48 m towards the S 14.04 W direction.
