A 1,103 kg car traveling at 18 m/s to the south collides with a 4,919 kg truck that is initially at rest at a stoplight. The car
Zigmanuir [339]

ANSWER

3.30\text{ m/s}

EXPLANATION

Parameters given:

Mass of car, mc = 1103 kg

Mass of truck, mt = 4919 kg

Initial velocity of car, uc = 18 m/s

Inital velocity of truck = 0 m/s

To solve this problem, we have to apply the law of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum of a system is constant.

This implies that:

m_cu_c+m_tu_t=m_cv_c+m_tv_t

Since the car and the truck stick together after the collision, they will have the same final velocity.

Hence:

m_cu_c+m_tu_t=(m_c+m_t)v_{}_{}

Substitute the given values and solve for v (final velocity):

\begin{gathered} (1103\cdot18)+(4919\cdot0)=(1103+4919)v \\ \Rightarrow19854=6022v \\ \Rightarrow v=\frac{19854}{6022} \\ v=3.30\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

That is the final velocity of the two-vehicle mass.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

20.45%

Explanation:

The probability that the student got a B is

\frac{total\#of\text{ students that got B}}{\text{total students }}\times100\%

Now, how many students are there in total?

The answer is

10+3+16+4+6+5=44\; \text{students}

How many students got a B?

The answer is

3+6=9\; \text{students}

therefore, the probability that the student has got a B is

\frac{9\text{ students }}{44\text{ students }}\times100\%=20.45\%

Hence, the probability that a student has got a B is 20.45%

Calculate the broadcast wavelength of the radio station 99.90 fm. seconds
taurus [48]

The radio waves are electromagnetic wave, so it travels with velocity of light i.e 3\times 10^{8} \ m/s.

We can use the relation between frequency, wavelength and speed as

\lambda =\frac{c}{f}

Here c is speed of light, \lambda is wavelength and f is frequency and its value is given 99.90 FM, it is actually in megahertz  (i.e 99.90 MHz).

Therefore,

\lambda =\frac{3 \times 10^{8}\ m/s }{99.90 \times 10^{6} \ Hz} = 3.003 \ m.

Thus, the broadcast wavelength of the given radio station is 3.003 m.

4. The Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft are now out beyond the orbit of Pluto. They have run out of fuel long ago but are still moving
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law of motion, which states that a body will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force to change its state of rest or uniform motion. So, the Voyagers spacecraft will continue to move in the same way at the constant speed of 50,000 mph unless acted upon by a force.

The maximum pressure variations the human ear can withstand are about how much above and below atmospheric pressure?
Crank

The maximum pressure variations the human ear can withstand  above and below atmospheric pressure is around 30 pa. the normal atmospheric pressure is around 101325 pa. hence the variation in the maximum pressure for human ear is very small as compared to the atmospheric pressure. if the ear is exposed to a pressure greater than this , it can cause permanent damage to the ear.
