In an elastic collision two cars are traveling toward one another and crash head-on. The first...
Two cars approach an ice-covered intersection. One car, of mass 1.25 103 kg, is initially traveling north at 11.1 m/s. The other car, of mass 1.58 103 kg, is initially traveling east at 11.1 m/s. The cars reach the intersection at the same instant, collide, and move off coupled together. Find the velocity of the center of mass of the two-car system just after the collision. Please provide magnitude & direction (ex - 30 degrees North of West)
two identical cars approach an intersection, one is traveling east at 18n/s. the second is traveling north at 24m/s. they collide and stick together. what is the momentum immediately after thr crash? assume mass of one car is 2000 kg. sketch the situation.
Two cars approach an ice-covered intersection. One car, of mass 1.11*103 kg, is initially traveling north at 12.1 m/s. The other car, of mass 1.70*103 kg, is initially traveling east at 12.1 m/s. The cars reach the intersection at the same instant, collide, and move off coupled together. Find the velocity of the center of mass of the two-car system just after the collision. Magnitude= Directions = North of East
A 110 kg running back carries the ball south at 8 m/s. A 130 kg linebacker runs to make the tackle going north at 5 m/s. In their collision, the linebacker wraps his arms around the runner and makes it an inelastic collision. How fast are they moving right after the collision (before they fall to the ground)? 3. A 2000 kg SUV traveling at 7 m/s south runs into the rear end of an 800 kg compact car sitting...
physics-- two cars with the mass of 300 kg (each) move towards eachother, collide head on and get joined together. before the collision: car 1 is traveling at 41 m/s and car 2 is traveling at 65 m/s. what is their speed immediately after the collision?
Two cars approach an ice-covered intersection. One car, of mass 1.15*10^3 kg, is initially traveling north at 11.1 m/s. The other car, of mass 1.65*10^3 kg, is initially traveling east at 11.1 m/s. The cars reach the intersection at the same instant, collide, and move off coupled together. Find the velocity of the center of mass of the two-car system just after the collision.
inelastic collision in a accident two cars travelling in opposite directions collide and stick together. the first car had a mass of 1000 kg and a speed of 20m/s, the second had a mass of 1750 kg and a speed of -15m/s. what is the speed of the two cars immediately after the crash?
Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick togetber. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at speed 2v, while the second was traveling at speed u at an angle φ south of east (as indicated in the figure). After the collision, the two-car system travels at speed vfinal at an angle θ east of north.
A ball of mass 2.00 kg is traveling east at 5.00 m/s. Another ball of mass 4.00kg is traveling west at 2.00 m/s. The two balls meet in a head-on-perfectly elastic collision. If the collision is perfectly (completely) elastic, what is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of each ball after the collision?
Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1200 kg and was approaching at 6.00 m/s due south. The second car has a mass of 800 kg and was approaching at 21.0 m/s due west. (a) Calculate the final velocity of the cars. (Note that since both cars have an initial velocity, you cannot use the equations for conservation of momentum along the x-axis and y-axis; instead, you must look...
