Answer:
16250 kgm/s due south
Explanation:
Applying,
M = mv................. Equation 1
Where M = momentum, m = mass, v = velocity.
From the car,
Given: m = 1000 kg, v = 6.5 m/s
Substitute these values into equation 1
M = 1000(6.5)
M = 6500 kgm/s
For the truck,
Given: m = 3500 kg, v = 6.5 m/s
Substitute these values into equation 1
M' = 3500(6.5)
M' = 22750 kgm/s.
Assuming South to be negative direction,
From the question,
Total momentum of the two vehicles = (6500-22750)
Total momentum of the two vehicles = -16250 kgm/s
Hence the total momentum of the two vehicles is 16250 kgm/s due south
Answer:
(A) We are using them faster than they are replenished by nature
Explanation:
Lasers produce a narrow beam of light in which all of the light waves have very similar wavelengths. The laser's light waves travel together with their peaks all lined up, or in phase. This is why laser beams are very narrow, very bright, and can be focused into a very tiny spot.
Answer:
202.8m
Explanation:
Given that A pirate fires his cannon parallel to the water but 3.5 m above the water. The cannonball leaves the cannon with a velocity of 120 m/s. He misses his target and the cannonball splashes into the briny deep.
First calculate the total time travelled by using the second equation of motion
h = Ut + 1/2gt^2
Let assume that u = 0
And h = 3.5
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
3.5 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2
3.5 = 4.9t^2
t^2 = 3.5/4.9
t^2 = 0.7
t = 0.845s
To know how far the cannonball travel, let's use the equation
S = UT + 1/2at^2
But acceleration a = 0
T = 2t
T = 1.69s
S = 120 × 1.69
S = 202.834 m
Therefore, the distance travelled by the cannon ball is approximately 202.8m.
