Let the mass of 2500 kg car be
and it's velocity be
and the mass of 1500 kg car be
and it's velocity be
.
After the bumping the mass be M and it's velocity be V.
By law of conservation of momentum we have

2500 * 5 + 1500 * 1=4000 * V
V = 14000/4000 = 7/2 = 3.5 m/s
So the velocity of the two-car train = 3.5 m/s
Answer:
Explanation:
The standard equation of the sinusoidal wave in one dimension is given by

Here, A be the amplitude of the wave
λ be the wavelength of the wave
v be the velocity of the wave
Φ be the phase angle
x be the position of the wave
t be the time
this wave is travelling along positive direction of X axis
The frequency of wave is f which relates with velocity and wavelength as given below
v = f x λ
The relation between the time period and the frequency is
f = 1 / T.
Answer:
(a) 2.5 m/s
(b) 37.5 KJ
Explanation:
(a)
From the law of conservation of momentum, Initial momentum=Final momentum

and making
the subject then
and since
is initial velocity of car, value given as 4 m/s,
is the initial velocity of the three cars stuck together, value given as 2 m/s and
is the final velocity which is unknown. By substitution

(b)
Initial kinetic energy is given by

Final kinetic energy is given by

The energy lost is given by subtracting the final kinetic energy from the initial kinetic energy hence
Energy lost=350-312.5=37.5 KJ
F = force applied to hold the weight of the bowling ball = weight of the bowling ball = 75 N
d = distance through which the bowling ball is moved horizontally = 10 meter
θ = angle between the force in vertically upward direction and displacement in horizontal direction = 90
W = work done on the bowling ball
work done on the bowling ball is given as
W = F d Cosθ
inserting the values
W = (75) (10) Cos90
W = (75) (10) (0)
W = 0 J
