Answer:
A collision in which both total momentum and total kinetic energy are conserved
Explanation:
In classical physics, we have two types of collisions:
- Elastic collision: elastic collision is a collision in which both the total momentum of the objects involved and the total kinetic energy of the objects involved are conserved
- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum of the objects involved is conserved, while the total kinetic energy is not. In this type of collisions, part of the total kinetic energy is converted into heat or other forms of energy due to the presence of frictional forces. When the objects stick together after the collision, the collisions is called 'perfectly inelastic collision'
Answer 1) : 62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.
2) The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s
Explanation:
1) Displacement of the train = 100 km + 150 km = 250 km
Total time train took =1 hour 15 min+ 45 min + 2 hours = 240 min = 4 hours
Average velocity=
62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.
2) The acceleration of the car, a= 1.2 
Distance covered by the car,s = 75 m
Initial velocity of the car ,
= 6 m/s
Final velocity of thre car ,
=?
Using third equation of motion:
The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s
Yes!
I think there are two ways you could go with this answer:
1) Acceleration is the change in velocity over time, it can be negative or positive. If you have an object that is already moving forwards in a straight line and give it a constant negative acceleration, it will slow down and then start going in reverse.
2)Velocity is a vector, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. In the example above, the acceleration is due to a change in magnitude, or speed (from +ve to -ve) but not a change in direction. Something that has constant speed but is changing direction is also accelerating (like something that is orbiting). You could use the earth as an example, which is constantly accelerating due to moving in a circle around the sun. At any time in the year you can say that in half a year's time the earth's direction will be reversed.
Hello!
We can use the kinematic equation:
a = acceleration (m/s²)
vf = final velocity (45 m/s)
vi = initial velocity (25 m/s)
t = time (5 sec)
Plug in the givens:
Answer:
the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]
Explanation:
Given;
acceleration of the car, a = 13 m/s²
initial velocity of the car, u = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s
duration of the car motion, t = 2 s
The final velocity of the car in the same direction is calculated as follows;
v = u + at
where;
v is the final velocity of the car
v = 33.33 + (13 x 2)
v = 59.33 m/s [N]
Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]
