Linear momentum (mass x speed) has to be conserved.
-- Momentum before the jump:
(boy's mass) x (boy's speed) = (25 kg) x (4.0 m/s) = 100 kg-m/s
(cart's mass) x (cart's speed) = (15 kg) x (zero) = zero
Total momentum before the jump: (100 kg-m/s) + (zero) = (100 kg-m/s)
-- Momentum after the jump:
(mass of boy+cart) x (speed of boy+cart) = (40 kg) x (speed)
-- Momentum after the jump = momentum before the jump
(40 kg) x (speed) = 100 kg-m/s
Divide each side by 40 kg:
Speed = (100 kg-m/s) / (40 kg)
<em>Speed = 2.5 m/s</em> (d)
Answer:
oil floats in water due to the fact that it is less dense. since the water is more dense, it is basically heavier, and heavier items always sink, while lighter items float, the same can be said about liquids. denser liquids will sink while less dense items will float.
Answer:
270Joues
Explanation:
Step one:
given data
Force F= 45N
distance moved d= 6m
Required
The work done in moving the block 6m
Step two:
We know that the expression for the work done is
WD= force* distance
WD= 45*6
WD=270Joues
Answer:
<em>In the case of a solar thermal panel we are trying to heat above the ambient temperature so conduction and convection will work against us by taking heat from the panel to the out- side world. ... The sun (at 6000 C surface temperature) is hotter than the solar panel so the panel will get hot due to the solar radiation.</em>
