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 *

$\textbf{Use equation of momentum}$

$p=mv$

$\text{momentum\ =\ mass x velocity}$

$\textbf{Substitute in the values}$

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

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

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

I need help this is due today GIVING BRAINLIEST IM DESPERATE!

Nitella [24]

Answer:

1: is A

2: is C

Explanation:

1: because all other option would imply that the truck was not moved from from its previous position due to the lack of work / force exerted by the car

2: this is because the less dense ball will have less opposing force action on it causing it to move / accelerate / go at a faster speed

620 J of heat is added to the cylinder of an engine, which causes the gas inside to expand. As a result, the piston of the engin

Maru [420]

Answer:

400 J work is done BY the engine.

The internal energy of the gas is 620 J

Explanation:

The given information are;

The heat added to the cylinder = 620 J

The force applied by the piston of the engine = 8.0 kN = 8,000 N

The distance over which the force moves (the piston) = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m

The work done (by the engine) = Force × Distance = 8,000 N × 0.05 m = 400 J

The internal energy is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy of the system

Therefore, given that the internal energy, U, is the sum total of the energy in the system

∴ U = The heat supplied to the system = 620 J

Which gives;

400 J work is done BY the engine.

The internal energy of the gas is 620 J.

An unmarked police car traveling a constant 95 km/h is passed by a speeder. Precisely 1.00 s after the speeder passes, the polic

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Speed of the speeder will be 28 m/sec

Explanation:

In first case police car is traveling with a speed of 90 km/hr

We can change 90 km/hr in m/sec

So $90km/hr=\frac{90\times 1000m}{3600sec}=25m/sec$

Car is traveling for 1 sec with a constant speed so distance traveled in 1 sec = 25×1 = 25 m

After that car is accelerating with $a=2m/sec^2$ for 7 sec

So distance traveled by car in these 7 sec

$S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=25\times 7+\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 7^2=224m$

So total distance traveled by police car = 224 m

This distance is also same for speeder

Now let speeder is moving with constant velocity v

so $224=\left ( 1+7 \right )v$

v = 28 m/sec
