A 1500 kg car traveling 5.0 m/s collides head on with a 3000 kg truck traveling

  • m1=1500kg
  • m_2=3000kg
  • v_1=5m/s
  • v_2=7m/s

Using law of conservation of momentum

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow m_1v_1-m_2v_2=(m1+m2)v_3

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow 1500(5)-3000(7)=(1500+3000)v_3

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow 7500-21000=4500v_3

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow -13500=4500v_3

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow v_3=-3m/s

A tennis ball moving at a speed of 4 m/s, collides with a bowling ball at rest. The tennis ball bounces back in the direction op
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Both experienced the same magnitude impulse

Explanation:

This is because, the impulse force is internal to the system of both the tennis ball and the bowling ball. It is an action-reaction pair. So, the force exerted on the tennis ball by the bowling ball equals in magnitude to the force exerted by the tennis ball on the bowling ball although, they are in opposite directions. This, both experienced the same magnitude impulse.

If this decay has a half-life of 10.2 years, what mass of 60.8g carbon-14 will remain after 20.4 years
OLEGan [10]
20.4 years is 20.4/10.2 = 2 half-life cycles, which means a quarter of the starting mass or 15.2 g will remain after this time.
