A 0.24 kg mass with a speed of 0.60 m/s has a head-on collision with a 0.26 kg mass that is traveling in the opposite direction

at a speed of 0.20 m/s. Assuming that the collision is perfectly inelastic, what is the final speed of the combined masses?

The  final speed of the combined masses is 0.186m/s

According to the law of collision, the sum of the momentum of the bodies before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision.

Mathematically;

m1u1 - m2u2 = (m1+m1)v

  • v is the final speed of the combined masses.

Substituting the given parameters;

0.24(0.6) - 0.26(0.2) = (0.24+0.26)v

0.144 - 0.052 = 0.5v

0.092 = 0.5v

v = 0.092/0.5

v = 0.184m/s

Hence the final speed of the combined masses is 0.186m/s

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South

What is 0.0025 m^2 in cm^2? 1m = 100cm.
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

25 cm²

Explanation:

Meters and centimeters are both the units for measuring length. The SI unit of measuring length is meters.

Area is the quantity which measures the cross-section occupied by the object.

Thus,

Given that = Area = 0.0025 m²

To convert into cm²

1 m = 100 cm

So, 1 m² = 10000 cm²

So,

<u>Area = 0.0025 × 10000 cm² = 25 cm²</u>

What is the photosynthes?
Westkost [7]
<em>It is the process in which green plants make their food through a green pigment known as Chlorophyll by using sunlight, Carbon-dioxide and water</em>.  <em>The result comes out with the formation of Oxygen as a byproduct. But in night they also respire like animals and photosynthesis does not occur. Photo means light and synthesis means manufacture.</em>
