A 0.50-kg red cart is moving rightward with a speed of 50 cm/s when it collides with a 0.50-kg blue cart that is initially at re

st. After the collision, the blue cart begins moving rightward with a speed of 40 cm/s. The red cart is still moving rightward but has slowed down to a speed of 10 cm/s. Enter the momentum values (in kg•cm/s) of each individual cart and of the system of two carts before and after the collision. Also indicate the change in momentum of each cart.

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass of red cart m1=0.5kg

initial velocity u1 of red cart=50cm/s

mass of blue cart m2=0.5kg

initial velocity u2 of blue cart= 0cm/s

final velocity v2 of blue cart= 40cm/s

final velocity v1 of red cart= 10cm/s

Step two:

Momentum values red cart before and after the collision.

Before collision

P1=m1u1

P1=0.5*50

P1=25kg•cm/s

After collision

P2=m1v1

P2=0.5*10

P2=5kg•cm/s

Change in momentum= P1-P2=25-5= 20kg•cm/s

Momentum values blue cart before and after the collision.

Before collision

P1=m1u1

P1=0.5*0

P1=0 kg•cm/s

After collision

P2=m1v1

P2=0.5*40

P2=20kg•cm/s

Change in momentum= P1-P2=0-20= -20kg•cm/s

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Force of <u>1</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>N</u><u> </u>will be needed.

Explanation:

Force, F = m \times g

g is acceleration due to gravity

m is the mass

F = (10 \times 10) \\ F =  100 \: newtons

A balloon drifts 140 m toward the west in 45 s; then the wind suddenly changes and the balloon flies 90 m toward the east in the
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

1 ) 140 m west in 45 s .

2 ) 90 m east in 25 s .

a )

distance travelled in first 45 s = 140 m

b ) distance travelled in next 25 s = 90 m

c ) Total distance travelled = 140 m + 90 m

= 230 m

d ) average speed in first 45 s

= distance in 45 s  45

= 140 / 45 = 3.11 m /s

e ) average speed in next 25 s

distance in 25 s / 25

= 90 / 25 = 3.6 m /s

f ) average in entire trip

=  total distance / total time

= (140 + 90) / ( 25 + 45 )

= 3.28 m /s

g )

displacement in first 45 s = 140 m towards west

h )

displacement in next 25 s = 90 m towards east

i )

total displacement = 140 - 90

= 50 m towards west .
