A 1250 kg car, driving 7.39 m/s, runs into the back of a stationary 5380 kg truck. After the collision, the truck moves forward

Leno4ka [110]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car, m₁ = 1250 kg

Initial speed of the car, u₁ = 7.39 m/s

Mass of the truck, m₂ = 5380 kg

It is stationary, u₂ = 0

Final speed of the truck, v₂ = 2.3 m/s

Let v₁ is the final velocity of the car. Using the conservation of momentum as :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

$1250\times 7.39+5380\times 0=1250\times v_1+5380\times 2.3$

$v_1=-2.5\ m/s$

So, the final velocity of the car is 2.5 m/s but in opposite direction. Hence, this is the required solution.

Can a vector be shorter than one of its components

Sauron [17]

It can never be shorter than a component - magnitude of avector is the square root of the sum of the components squared, and a square function never produces a negative number. However, it can be the same size as its component, if that component is the only one

Based on the type of medium, what can you assume about the speed of sound in glass?

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

"It will be more than the speed of sound waves in air at 20*C and water at 20*C."

Explanation:

Speed of sound in a medium depends upon the density and elasticity of the medium.

If the elasticity of a medium is greater and the density of that medium is lower, sound will travel faster. Although density is also a factor but the major factor is Elasticity.

Hence, sound travel faster in solids than in liquids and even slower in gases due to elasticity difference.

$Speed of sound = V = \sqrt{\frac{Elasticity}{Density} }$

That is why the speed of sound in glass will be more than the speed of sound waves in air at 20*C and water at 20*C.
