Two trains, each having a speed of 33 km/h, are headed at each other on the same straight track. A bird that can fly 60 km/h fli

es off the front of on train when they are 60 km apart and heads directly for the other train. On reaching the other train, the (crazy) bird flies directly back to the first train, and so forth. What is the total distance the bird travels before the trains collide?

Answer:

66 km

Explanation:

Given that:

The speed of the two trains = 33 km/h

The speed of the bird = 60 km/h

The distance apart between the two trains =  60 km

From the given information, we are being told that the two trains are going at the same speed. Therefore, they will definitely collide at 30 km

We know that:

speed  of the train = distance traveled × time

Making the time t the subject of the formula:

time = speed of the train / distance traveled

time = 30 km / 33 km/h

time = 0.909 / hr

Thus, the bird flying at a given speed of 60 km/h in a time of 0.909 / hr will cover a total distance of :

distance (d) = speed of the bird/ time

distance (d) = \dfrac{60 \ km/hr}{0.909 \ /hr}

distance (d) = 66 km

A block slides forward 4.73 m while being pulled back by a 39.7 N force at 142° from the direction of motion. How much work does
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

work done by the force, W = -147.97 J

Given:

displacement of the box, s = 4.73 m

angle between force and displacement, \theta = 142^{\circ}

Force, F = 39.7 N

Solution:

Work done by the force can be expressed as the dot product of Force, F and displacement 's' is given by:

W = Fscos\theta

W = 39.7\times 4.73\times cos142^{\circ}

W = -147.97 J

where negative sign indicates that work is done on the block

madam [21]

Explanation :

The interaction between two objects is termed as the collision. The collision can be of two types i.e. elastic collision and inelastic collision.

In this case, two identical carts travel at the same speed toward each other, and then a collision occurs. In an inelastic collision, the momentum before and after the collision remains the same but its kinetic energy gets lost.

After the collision, both the object sticks over each other and moves with one velocity.

Out of the given graph, the graph that shows a perfectly inelastic collision is attached. It shows that after the collision both the carts move with the same velocity.
