A 0.75 kg model car is moving west at a speed of 9.0 m/s when it collides head-on with a 2.00 kg model truck that is traveling e

ast at a speed of 10.0 m/s. After the collision, the 0.75 kg model car is now moving east at 11 m/s. What is the speed and direction of the model truck after the collision?

Answer:

  2.5 m/s east

Explanation:

Let east be the positive direction for velocity.

The change in momentum of the 0.75 kg model car is ...

  m1·v2 -m1·v1 = (0.75 kg)(11 m/s) -(0.75 kg)(-9 m/s)

  = (0.75 kg)(20 m/s) = 15 kg·m/s

The change in momentum of the 2.0 kg model car is the opposite of this, so the total change in momentum is zero.

  m2·v2 -m2·v1 = (2 kg)(v2 m/s) -(2 kg)(10 m/s) = 2(v2 -10) kg·m/s

The required relation is ...

  15 kg·m/s = -2(v2 -10) kg·m/s

  -7.5 = v2 -10 . . . . divide by -2

  2.5 = v2 . . . . . . . add 10

The velocity of the model truck after the collision is 2.5 m/s east.

Two cars are traveling along a straight road. Car A maintains a constant speed of 95 km/h and car B maintains a constant speed o
natulia [17]

Answer

given,

Speed of car A = 95 Km/h

                         = 95 x 0.278 = 26.41 m/s

Speed of Car B = 121 Km/h

                         = 121 x 0.278 = 33.64 m/s

Distance between Car A and B at t=0 = 41 Km

a) Distance travel by car B

   d = 26.41 t + 41000

speed of the car A = 33.64 m/s

distance = s x t

26.41 t + 41000 = 33.64 x t

7.23 t = 41000

t = 5670.82 s

time taken by Car B to cross Car A is equal to t = 5670.82 s

distance traveled by car A

D = s x t  = 26.41 x 5670.82 = 149766.25 m = 149.76 Km

b) distance travel by the car B in 30 s after overtaking car A

   D' = s x t = 33.64 x 30 = 1009.2 m = 1 Km

Two parallel wires carry a current I in the same direction. Midway between these wires is a third wire, also parallel to the oth
Luda [366]

Answer:

Force is repulsive hence direction of force is away from wire

Explanation:

The first thing will be to draw a figure showing the condition,

Lets takeI attractive force as +ve and repulsive force as - ve and thereafter calculating net force on outer left wire due to other wires, net force comes out to be - ve which tells us that force is repulsive, hence direction of force is away from wire as shown in figure in the attachment.

What is the speed of sound for a noise that travels 2km in 5.8s?​
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the rate at which an object covers a particular distance. So the formula for determining speed is given as the ratio of distance to time taken for covering that distance.

Speed = Distance/Time

As here the distance is given in km units and time in s units, so the units of any one parameter should be changed. Since we know that speed of sound is always about 300 m/s. So it is better to convert the unit of distance from km to m.

Hence, now the distance traveled by the noise is 2000 m and time taken is 5.8 s.

So the speed of noise = Distance/Time = 2000/5.8=345 m/s.

Thus, the speed of noise is slightly greater than the speed of sound and it is found to be 345 m/s.
