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.

if the resistance of a car headlight is 15 ohm and the current through it is 0.60, what is the voltage across the headlight?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

9 volts (assuming 0.60 is in Amperes)

Explanation:

Recall that Ohms law can be expressed as

V = IR, where

V = voltage,

I = current (given as 0.6. I'm going to assume that the units is Amperes because it is not given)

R = resistance (given as 15 ohm)

substituting the above values into the formula

V = IR

V = (0.6)(15)

V = 9 Volts

Plz help difference between closed system and open system?
frozen [14]

A closed system is a system that is completely isolated from its environment. The physical universe, as we currently understand it, appears to be a closed system. An open system is a system that has flows of information, energy, and/or matter between the system and its environment, and which adapts to the exchange.

D makes the most sense, but you just have to put two and two together and go with your gut feeling, first cross out the answers that don't make sense (A didnt make sense) and go from there! I hope the little bit above me helped you answer or decide :) Good luck!
