Two remote control cars with masses of 1.16 kilograms and 1.98 kilograms travel toward each other at speeds of 8.64 meters per s

The initial momentum of the system can be expressed as,

p_i=m_1u_1+m_{2_{}}u_2

The final momentum of the system can be given as,

p_f=m_1v_1+m_{2_{}}v_2

According to conservation of momentum,

p_i=p_f

Plug in the known expressions,

\begin{gathered} m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2 \\ m_2v_2=m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1 \\ v_2=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1}{m_2} \end{gathered}

Initially, the second mass move towards the first mass therefore the initial speed of second mass will be taken as negative and the recoil velocity of first mass is also taken as negative.

Plug in the known values,

\begin{gathered} v_2=\frac{(1.16\text{ kg)(8.64 m/s)+(1.98 kg)(-3.34 m/s)-(1.16 kg)(-2.16 m/s)}}{1.98\text{ kg}} \\ =\frac{10.02\text{ kgm/s-}6.61\text{ kgm/s+}2.51\text{ kgm/s}}{1.98\text{ kg}} \\ =\frac{5.92\text{ kgm/s}}{1.98\text{ kg}} \\ \approx2.99\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the final velocity of second mass is 2.99 m/s.

The speed of a car during a trip is represented in the graph. Compare distance and displacement at four hours into the trip.
mezya [45]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: D.

Explanation:

Distance refers to the amount of space between two points, it is a scalar quantity.

Displacement refers to the space between two points, measure from the minimum path linking them, it is a vector quantity.

I'm not agree with these answers, because the total distance  is approximately 500km.

A) The distance traveled is 300 km.  This answer is not correct.

B) Distance is 300 km and displacement is 0 km.  This answer is not correct because the displacement is also 500 km.

C) Distance is 300 km/hour and displacement is 300 km. 300 km/h is a measure of speed not of distance, this option is wrong.

D) Both distance traveled and displacement are 300 km. I think this is the correct answer because distance and displacement measure the same. but I think both measure 500 km.

Compare and contrast the terms vaporizing and condensation.
JulsSmile [24]
The terms are both about changing states. Vaporizing is when you heat something up into a vapor; condensation is when you lower a vapors temperature to make it become a liquid state.
