For a movie stunt, an empty truck with a mass of 2000 kg goes 10 m/s and runs into a stopped car of mass 1000 kg. The truck then

keeps moving and pushes the car along with it.
If there are no other forces acting on this system, which best describes the results of the collision?

The collision is perfectly elastic.
Kinetic energy stays the same.
The momentum after the collision is greater than the momentum before the collision.
The speed of the combined vehicles is less than the initial speed of the truck.

White raven [17]

Answer:

a) 51.8 cm³

b) kg/m³ is a dimension of density (mass/volume). The regular unitys for volume are m³, cm³, L, gallons.

Explanation:

a) The density of pure gold is 19.3 g/cm³. When put in water, the piece of gold will occupy a volume, so that the volume of water will be displaced. To know the volume, we must divide the mass for the density (mass must be in grams because of the units of the density)

V = 1000/19.3

V = 51.8 cm³

You can keep a 1kg apple from falling to the ground by placing it on a table. What reaction force is resisting the force of the
Gnom [1K]

The equilibrium condition allows finding the correct answer for the force that is resisting the weight of the apple is:

        3. Normal force

Newton's second law gives the relationship between <em>force, mass</em> and acceleration of bodies, in the special case that the acceleration is is called the equilibrium condition.

            ∑ F = 0

Where F is the external force.

The free body diagram is a diagram of the forces on bodies without the details of the shape of the body, in the attached we can see a scheme of the forces.

Let's write the equilibrium condition for the apple

          N - W = 0

          N = W

.

We can see that the only forces acting on the apple are its weights and reaction from the table called Normal.

Let's analyze the different answers:

1. False. The apple is not moving therefore the resistance is zero

2. False. The apple is not moving  so friction it with the table is  

3. True. The free-body diagram shows that the normal and the weight are equal

4. False. There is nothing to pull the apple so there is no tension

5. False. Gravity is the weight of the apple that is applied to the table, not from the table to the apple.

In conclusion using the equilibrium condition we can find the correct result for the force that is resisting the weight of the apple is:

        3. Normal force

In a thunderstorm at 20.0°C, Karen sees a bolt of lightning and hears the thunderclap 3.00 s later. How far from Karen did the l
Minchanka [31]
-- The speed of light in air is very close to 3 x 10⁸ m/s.
Whatever the actual number is, it's equivalent to roughly
7 times around the Earth in 1 second.  So for this kind of
problem, you can assume that we see things at the same time
that they happen; don't bother worrying about how long it takes
for the light to reach you.

-- For sound, it's a different story.  Sound in air only travels at
about 340 m/s.  It takes sound almost 5 seconds to go 1 mile.

-- Now, the lightning and thunder happen at the same time.
The light travels to you at the speed of light, so you see the
lightning pretty much when it happens.  But the sound of the
thunder comes poking along at 340 m/s, and arrives AFTER
the sight of the lightning.

The length of time between the sight and the sound is about
99.9999% the result of the time it takes the sound to reach you.

If the thunder arrived at you 3 seconds after the light did, then
the sound traveled
        
                     (340 m/s) x (3 s) =  1,020 meters .
                                           
(about 0.63 of a mile)

(If you're worried about ignoring the time it takes
for the light to reach you ...

  It takes light  0.0000034 second to cover the same 1,020 meters,

so including it in the calculation would not change the answer.)
