<u>Answer:</u>

 950-kg subcompact car be moving to have the same kinetic energy of truck at 116.08 km/hr

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Kinetic energy of body with mass m and moving at velocity v is given by

                  KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2

  KE of truck  = \frac{1}{2}*3.2*10^4*20^2

  KE of subcompact car = \frac{1}{2}*950*v^2

  Equating

         \frac{1}{2}*3.2*10^4*20^2= \frac{1}{2}*950*v^2\\ \\ v=116.08 km/hr

 So 950-kg subcompact car be moving to have the same kinetic energy of truck at 116.08 km/hr

With what speed does the can move immediately after the collision? Answer in units of m/s.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

1.74 m/s

Explanation:

From the question, we are given that the mass of the an object, m1= 2.7 kilogram(kg) and the mass of the can,m(can) is 0.72 Kilogram (kg). The velocity of the mass of an object(m1) , V1 is 1.1 metre per seconds(m/s) and the velocity of the mass of can[m(can)], V(can) is unknown- this is what we are to find.

Therefore, using the formula below, we can calculate the speed of the can, V(can);

===> Mass of object,m1 × velocity of object, V1 = mass of the can[m(can)] × velocity is of the can[V(can)].----------------------------------------------------(1).

Since the question says the collision was elastic, we use the formula below

Slotting in the given values into the equation (1) above, we have;

1/2×M1×V^2(initial velocity of the first object) + 1/2 ×M(can)×V^2(final velocy of the first object)= 1/2 × M1 × V^2 m( initial velocity of the first object).

Therefore, final velocity of the can= 2M1V1/M1+M2.

==> 2×2.7×1.1/ 2.7 + 0.72.

The velocity of the can after collision = 1.74 m/s

Projectile A is launched horizontally at a speed of 20. Meters per second from the top of a cliff and strikes a level surface be
miv72 [106K]

consider the motion of projectile A in vertical direction :

v₀ = initial velocity of projectile A in vertical direction = 0 m/s         (since the projectile was launched horizontally)

a = acceleration of the projectile = g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel for projectile A = 3.0 seconds

Y = vertical displacement of projectile A = height of the cliff = h = ?

using the kinematics equation along the vertical direction as

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

h = (0) (3.0) + (0.5) (9.8) (3.0)²

h = 44.1 m

We can change a gas to liquid by the temperature and the pressure.
hodyreva [135]

I am not sure how you want me to answer this, but yes, gas can go from being a gas to a liquid when the right temp and pressure is applied.
