<span>The 2nd truck was overloaded with a load of 16833 kg instead of the permissible load of 8000 kg.
The key here is the conservation of momentum.
For the first truck, the momentum is
0(5100 + 4300)
The second truck has a starting momentum of
60(5100 + x)
And finally, after the collision, the momentum of the whole system is
42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x)
So let's set the equations for before and after the collision equal to each other.
0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x)
And solve for x, first by adding the constant terms
0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x)
Getting rid of the zero term
60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x)
Distribute the 60 and the 42.
60*5100 + 60x = 42*14500 + 42x
306000 + 60x = 609000 + 42x
Subtract 42x from both sides
306000 + 18x = 609000
Subtract 306000 from both sides
18x = 303000
And divide both sides by 18
x = 16833.33
So we have the 2nd truck with a load of 16833.33 kg, which is well over it's maximum permissible load of 8000 kg. Let's verify the results by plugging that mass into the before and after collision momentums.
60(5100 + 16833.33) = 60(21933.33) = 1316000
42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + 16833.33) = 42(31333.33) = 1316000
They match. The 2nd truck was definitely over loaded.</span>

A box is sliding up an incline that makes an angle of 14.0° with respect to the horizontal. the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface of the incline is 0.180. the initial speed of the box at the bottom of the incline is 2.20 m/s. how far does the box travel along the incline before coming to rest?

Explanation:
In order to use a device rated for use in 240 volt for use in 120 V , we have to use a step down transformer . In step down transformer no of turn in secondary coil is less than that in primary coil .
For transformer the relation is as follows
V₂ / V₁ = N₂ / N₁ = turn ratio
Where V₂ and V₁ are volts in secondary and primary coil and N₂ and N₁ is no of turns in secondary and primary coil.
Here V₂ = 120V , V₁ = 240 V
turn ratio = N₂ / N₁ = V₂ / V₁ = 120 / 240 = .5
turn ratio = .5 .
