Given:
Mass of the rail road car, m = 2 kg
velocity of the three cars coupled system, v' = 1.20 m/s
velocity of first car,
= 3 m/s
Solution:
a) Momentum of a body of mass 'm' and velocity 'v' is given by:
p = mv
Now for the coupled system according to law of conservation of momentum, total momentum of a system before and after collision remain conserved:
(1)
where,
= velocity of the first car
= velocity of the 2 coupled cars after collision
Now, from eqn (1)


v' = 1.80 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the combined car system after collision is 1.80 m/s
Given the final velocity (Vf) and the acceleration (a), the distance that should be traveled by the plane is calculated through the equation,
d = (Vf² - Vi²) / 2a
V1 should be zero because the light plane started the motion from rest. Substituting the given values,
d = ((33 m/s)² - 0)) / 2(3 m/s²)
The distance is therefore equal to 181.5 meters.
Answer: because the ice was cold, and it melted in the tea. So the tea is now cooler.
Explanation:
Third
every action has an opposite and equal reaction
<span>According to Newton's first law of motion:
-- objects at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force
-- objects in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force
