2200 kg semi truck driving down the highway has lost control. The truck rolls across the median and into oncoming traffic. The t

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

Explanation:

In this exercise we see a case of an entirely inellastic collision between the semi truck and the car, which can be described by the following equation derived from Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation: (We assume that velocity oriented northwards is positive)

$m_{S}\cdot v_{S}+m_{C}\cdot v_{C} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v$ (1)

Where:

$m_{S}$ , $m_{C}$ - Masses of the semi truck and the car, measured in kilograms.

$v_{S}$ , $v_{C}$ - Initial velocities of the semi truck and the car, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final speed of the system after collision, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $m_{S} = 2200\,kg$ , $m_{C} = 2000\,kg$ , $v_{C} = 45\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v = -15\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the initial velocity of the semi truck is:

$m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v -m_{C}\cdot v_{C}$

$v_{S} = \frac{(m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v - m_{C}\cdot v_{C}}{m_{S}}$

$v_{S} = \left(1+\frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}} \right)\cdot v - \frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}} \cdot v_{C}$

$v_{S} = v +\frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}}\cdot (v-v_{C})$

$v_{S} = -15\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(\frac{2000\,kg}{2200\,kg} \right) \cdot \left(-15\,\frac{m}{s}-45\,\frac{m}{s} \right)$

$v_{S} = -69.545\,\frac{m}{s}$

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

You drop a rock down a well that is 5.4 m deep. How long does it take the rock to hit the bottom of the well?

Natali5045456 [20]

Equation of motion:

$y_{f}=y_{o}+v_{o}t+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

Since initial velocity is zero, the second term goes away:

$y_{f}=y_{o}+0+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}=y_{o}+\frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}-y_{o}= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}-y_{o}=5.4m$

$5.4m= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$\frac{2(5.4m) }{a} = t^{2}$

$a = g = 9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2}}$

$\frac{2(5.4m) }{9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2} } } = t^{2}$

$1.1 s^{2} = t^{2}$ $\sqrt{1.1 s^{2}} = \sqrt{t^{2}}$

<u><em> $t = 1.05s$ </em></u>

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

<h3><u>Given</u> :</h3>

Three identical resistors of resistances 5Ω, 10Ω and 30Ω are connected with a battery of 12V $.$

We have to find current through the each resistor and equivalent resistance of circuit $.$

<h3><u>SoluTion</u> :</h3>

➝ Equivalent resistance of series connection is given by

<u>R = R1 + R2 + R3</u>

➝ We know that, Equal current flow through each resistor in series connection.

➝ As per ohm's law, Current flow through a conductor is directly proportional to the applied potential difference.

<u>V = IR</u>

◈ <u>Equivalent resistance</u> :

⇒ Req = R1 + R2 + R3

⇒ Req = 5 + 10 + 30

⇒ <u>Req = 45Ω</u>

◈ <u>Current flow in circuit</u> :

⇒ V = IReq

⇒ 12 = I × 45

⇒ <u>I = 0.27A</u>

፨ Therefore, 0.27A current will flow through each resistor.
