Car A hits car B (initially at rest and of equal mass) from behind while going 15 m/s Immediately after the collision, car B mov

Mamont248 [21]

Given :

Initial speed of car A is 15 m/s and initial speed of car B is zero.

Final speed of car A is zero and final speed of car B is 10 m/s.

To Find :

What fraction of the initial kinetic energy is lost in the collision.

Solution :

Initial kinetic energy is :

$K.E_i = \dfrac{15^2m}{2} + 0\\\\K.E_i = \dfrac{225 m}{2}$

Final kinetic energy is :

$K.E_f = \dfrac{10^2m}{2} + 0\\\\K.E_f = \dfrac{100m}{2}$

Now, fraction of initial kinetic energy loss is :

$Loss = \dfrac{\dfrac{225m}{2}-\dfrac{100m}{2}}{\dfrac{100m}{2}}\\\\Loss = \dfrac{125}{100}\\\\Loss = 1.25$

Therefore, fraction of initial kinetic energy loss in the collision is 1.25 .

agasfer [191]

Answer: Highly-elliptical-earth-orbit (heo)

Explanation: Highly-elliptical-earth-orbit (heo) satellite system has unique properties

which is used by governments for spying and by scientific agencies for observing celestial bodies. It is an extremely elongated orbit that is useful for communication satellites which creates signals between a source transmitter and a receiver at different locations on earth. They are used by government for spying, scientific agencies for observing celestial bodies, for the internet and telephone communications.

How dose an atom change if all of its electrons are removed

cluponka [151]

Answer:

The atom becomes a positively charged ion.

Explanation:

The building blocks of an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The protons and neutrons present in the core of the atom are called nucleus.
The electrons are scattered in an ordered way around the nucleus.
The protons are positively charged and the electrons are negatively charged particles. The neutrons do not possess any charges.
Binding energy is supplied to the atom to remove an electron.
It is possible to remove the electrons of the lighter elements.
When an electron is removed from the hydrogen atom. It becomes positively charged ion or simply proton.
When all of the electrons are removed from the helium atom, it becomes a positively charged α particle.
It is practically very difficult to remove all of the electrons from the heavier elements.
When all of the electrons are removed from an atom it becomes an unstable positively charged ion.

You are performing a knee extension exercise. You hold a 20kg weight at full knee extension. The weight is 0.4m from your knee j

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The moment is -78.4 N-m (clockwise).

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the object (m) = 20 kg

Distance of the object from the knee joint (d) = 0.4 m

Weight of leg is not considered.

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Now, weight of the object is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. So,

Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity

= $mg=20\times 9.8 =196\ N$

We know that, moment of a force about a point is defined as the product of force applied and the perpendicular distance between the point and the line of application of force.

Moment of the given weight about the knee joint is given as:

Moment about knee joint = Weight × Distance from knee joint to weight

Moment about knee joint = 196 × 0.4 = 78.4 Nm

Now, from the diagram below, we can observe that, the weight acts vertically down and thus the sense of rotation about the knee joint at point O is clockwise. So, moment is negative.

Therefore, the moment is -78.4 N-m (clockwise).
