Mrs. Fatima has a a small sports car that she uses to drop her kids off from school that has a mass of 5000 kg. Mr. Zaid drives

a truck with a mass of 4200 kg. If the two vehicles are travelling down the road, side by side, at a speed of 75 km/hr, which one will have the most momentum? Explain *

\textbf{Use equation of momentum}

p=mv

\text{momentum\ =\ mass x velocity}

\textbf{Substitute in the values}

5000 \times 75 = 375,000 \text{\ kg\ km/hr}

4200 \times 75 = 315,000 \text{\ kg\ km/hr}

\textbf{The\ small\ sports\ car\ will\ have\ the\ most\ momentum.}

While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 34 m/s to 17 m/s in 6 seconds. What is the automobiles acceleration?​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

-2.83 m/s²

Explanation:

  • Initial velocity (u) = 34 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 17 m/s
  • Time taken (t) = 6 seconds

❖ Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with time.

→ a = (v - u)/t

  • v denotes final velocity
  • a denotes acceleration
  • u denotes initial velocity
  • t denotes time

→ a = (17 - 34)/6 m/s²

→ a = -17/6 m/s²

<h3>→ Acceleration = -2.83 m/s²</h3>

(Minus sign implies that the velocity is decreasing.)

Suppose you wish to whirl a pail full of water in a vertical circle at a constant speed without spilling any of its contents (ev
Yanka [14]

Answer:

V = 2.87 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.

Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:

Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r

where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.

For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m

and solving the above equation we get:

9.81 = V^2 / 0.84

V^2 = 8.2404

V = 2.87 m/s

Which statement best describes metallic bonding
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

It's a type of chemical bonding that rises from the electrostatic attractive force between conduction electrons and positively charged metal bars. It can also be described as the sharing of free electrons among a structure of positively charged ions
