a 3520 kg truck moving north at 18.5 m/s makes an INELASTIC collision with an 1480 kg car moving east after colliding they have
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

An inelastic collision is one where 2 masses collide and stick together, moving as a single mass after the collision occurs. When we talk about this type of momentum conservation, the momentum is conserved always, but the kinetic momentum is not (the velocity changes when they collide). Because there is direction involved here, we use vector addition. The picture before the collision has the truck at a mass of 3520 kg moving north at a velocity of 18.5. The truck's momentum, then, is 3520(18.5) = 65100 kgm/s; coming at this truck is a car of mass 1480 kg traveling east at an unknown velocity. The car's momentum, then, is 1480v. The resulting vector (found when you pick up the car vector and stick the initial end of it to the terminal end of the truck's momentum vector) forms the hypotenuse of a right triangle where one leg is 65100 kgm/s, and the other leg is 1480v. Since we already know the final velocity of the 2 masses after the collision, we can use that to find the final momentum, which will serve as the resultant momentum vector in our equation (we'll get there in a sec). The final momentum of this collision is

p = mv and

p = (3520 + 1480)(13.6) so

p = 68000. Final momentum. The equation for this is a take-off of Pythagorean's Theorem and the one used to find the final magnitude of a resultant vector when you first began your vector math in physics. The equation is

p_f=\sqrt{(p_{truck})^2+(p_{car})^2} which, in words, is

the final momentum after the collision is equal to the square root of the truck's momentum squared plus the car's momentum squared. Filling in:

68000=\sqrt{(65100)^2+(1480v)^2} and

(68000)^2=(65100)^2+(1480v)^2 and

4624000000=4238010000+2190400v^2  and

385990000=2190400v^2 and

176.2189554=v^2 so

v = 13.3 m/s at 72.6°

A pair of narrow slits, separated by 1.8 mm, is illuminated by a monochromatic light source. Light waves arrive at the two slits
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

750 nm

Explanation:

d  = separation of the slits = 1.8 mm = 0.0018 m

λ = wavelength of monochromatic light

D  = screen distance = 4.8 m

y = position of first bright fringe = \frac{1cm}{5 fringe} = \frac{0.01}{5} = 0.002 m

n  = order = 1

Position of first bright fringe is given as

y = \frac{nD\lambda }{d}

0.002 = \frac{(1)(4.8)\lambda }{0.0018}

λ = 7.5 x 10⁻⁷ m

λ = 750 nm

A well-insulated bucket of negligible heat capacity contains 129 g of ice at 0°C.
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The final equilibrium temperature of the system is T = 12.48^oC

For the ice it would melt completely the mass that would remain is Zero

Explanation:

In the following question we are provided with

Mass of the ice M_{i} = 129 g = 0.129 kg

Mass of the steam M_s = 19 g = 0.019 kg

Initial temperature is  T_i = 0°C

Temperature of  steam  T_s = 100°C

Following the change of state of water in the question

 The energy required by ice to change to water is mathematically given as

          Q_A = M_iL_f

Where L_f is a constant known as heat of fusion  and the value is 334*10^3 J/kg

           Q_A = 0.129 *334 *10^3  = 43086 J

The energy been released when the steam changes to water is mathematically given as

            Q_B = M_s * L_v

           Where L_v is a constant known as heat of vaporization and the value is 2256*10^3J/kg

           Q_B = 0.019 * 2256*10^3 = 42864J

         The energy released when the temperature of water decrease from 100°C to 0°C is

                 Q_C = M_s *C_water (100°C)

Where C_{water} is the specific heat of water which has a value 4186J/kg \cdot K

                  Q_C = 0.019 *4186*100 = 7953.4

Looking at the values we obtained we noticed that ]

             Q_B + Q_C > Q_A

What this means is that the ice will melt

bearing in mind the conservation of energy

     looking the way at which water at different temperature were mixed according to the question

     Heat lossed by the vapor   = heat gained by ice

        Q_B + M_s *C_{water}(100-T) = Q_A + M_i C_{water} T

                                               T = \frac{Q_B+M_s *C_{water}(100^oC)-Q_A}{(M_s *C_{water})+(M_i*C_{water})}

                                               T = \frac{42864+7953.4-43086}{(0.019+0.129)(4186)}

                                              T = 12.48^oC
