Answer:

During a lunar eclipse, the Moon turns red because the only sunlight reaching the Moon passes through Earth's atmosphere. The more dust or clouds in Earth's atmosphere during the eclipse, the redder the Moon will appear.

A car initially traveling 7 m/s speeds up uniformly at a rate of 3 m/s2 until it reaches a velocity of 22 m/s. How much time did

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

t = 5 s

Explanation:

Data:

Initial Velocity (Vo) = 7 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²
Final Velocity (Vf) = 22 m/s
Time (t) = ?

Use formula:

$\boxed{t=\frac{Vf - Vo}{a}}$

Replace:

$\boxed{t=\frac{22\frac{m}{s} -7\frac{m}{s}}{3\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}$

Solve the subtraction of the numerator:

$\boxed{t=\frac{15\frac{m}{s}}{3\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}$

It divides:

$\boxed{t=5\ s}$

How much time did it take the car to reach this final velocity?

It took a time of <u>5 seconds.</u>

Two balls of clay, with masses M1 = 0.49 kg and M2 = 0.47 kg, are thrown at each other and stick when they collide. Mass 1 has a

malfutka [58]

Answer:

a) $p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}$

b) $v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}$

c) $v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given masses:

$m_1=0.49\ kg$

$m_2=0.47\ kg$

Velocity of mass 1, $v_1=3.2 \hat{i}\ m.s^{-1}$

Velocity of mass 2, $v_2=1.6 \hat{j}\ m.s^{-1}$

Initial momentum:

$p_i=m_1.v_1+m_2.v_2$

$p_i=0.49\times 3.2 \hat{i}+0.47\times 1.6 \hat{j}$

$p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}$

magnitude of initial momentum:

$p_i=\sqrt{1.568^2+0.752 ^2}$

$p_i=1.739\ kg.m.s^{-1}$

From the conservation of momentum:

$p_f=p_i$

$m_f.v_f=1.739$

$v_f=\frac{1.739}{0.49+0.47}$

$v_f=1.85\ m.s^{-1}$ is the magnitude of final velocity.

Direction of final velocity will be in the direction of momentum:

$tan\theta=\frac{0.752 }{1.568}$

$\theta=25.62^{\circ}$

$\therefore v_{fx}=1.85\ cos25.62^{\circ}$

$v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}$

Vertical component of final velocity:

$v_{fy}=1.85\ sin 25.62^{\circ}$

$v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}$
