after collision
v1 = v2 = V
momentum before collision
Pi = m1*u1 + m2*u2
momentum afteer collision
Pf = (m1+m2)*v
from momentum conservation
Pf = Pi
v = ((1000*20)+(3000*5))/(1000+3000)
v = 8.75 m/s
A car rear-ends and sticks to a truck, and this question concerns their speeds just before...
A truck with a mass of 1710 kg and moving with a speed of 14.0 m/s rear-ends a 613 kg car stopped at an intersection. The collision is approximately elastic since the car is in neutral, the brakes are off, the metal bumpers line up well and do not get damaged. Find the speed of both vehicles after the collision in meters per second. m/s truck m/s car As shown in the figure below, object m, = 1.50 kg starts...
A 2000kg blue truck initially travels in the positive x-direction at 10m/s and a 1000kg yellow car initially travels in the positive y-direction at 20m/s. The elasticity of the collision is 0.7. use momentum conservation principles to determine all of the final velocity components for the two vehicles. How much internal energy is produced during the collision? Now make the collision totally elastic. (An elasticity of 1.0 is not reasonable for a car collision. Why?) Use momentum conservation principles to...
In the "before" part of the figure, car A (mass 1200 kg) is stopped at a traffic light when it is rear-ended by car B (mass 1200 kg). Both cars then slide with locked wheels until the frictional force from the slick road (with a low μk of 0.16) stops them, at distances dA = 8.0 m and dB = 5.3 m. What are the speeds of (a) car A and (b) car B at the start of the sliding,...
A 2,900-kg truck runs into the rear of a 1,000-kg car that was stationary. The truck and car are locked together after the collision and move with speed 2 m/s. What was the speed of the truck before the collision?
A 831 kg car stopped at an intersection is rear-ended by a 1830 kg truck moving with a speed of 14.5 m/s. If the car was in neutral and its brakes were off, so that the collision is approximately elastic, find the final speed of both vehicles after the collision. speed of car in m/s speed of truck in m/s
6. A 50-kg front seat passenger in a car moving initially with a speed of 25 m/sisbr rest by an air bag in a time of 0.4 s a) What is the impulse acting on the passenger? b) What is the average force acting on the passenger in this process?? 7. A ball traveling with an initial momentum of 5.0 kg.m/s bounces off a wall and comes back in the opposite direction with a momentum of -4.5 kg.m/s a) What...
A 7,500-kg truck runs into the rear of a 1,000-kg car that was stationary. The truck and car are locked together after the collision and move with speed 7 m/s. Compute how much kinetic energy was "lost" in this inelastic collision.
56 In the "before" part of Fig. 9-60, car A (mass 1100 kg) is stopped at a traffic light when it is rear-ended by car B (mass 1400 kg). Both cars then slide with locked wheels until the fric- tional force from the slick road (with a low 쌔 of 0.13) stops them, at distances dA 8.2 m and dg6.1 m. What are the speeds of (a) car A and (b) car B at the start of the sliding, just...
a 1200kg car traveling initially qith a speeed of 25.0 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the rear end of a 9,000kg truck moving in the same direction at 20.0 m/s. the velocity of the car right after the collision is 18.0 m/s to the east. what is the celocity of the truck right after the collision?
A 1000kg car moving at 15m/s to the right collided head-on with another 1500 kg car who was coming in the opposite direction at a speed of 20m/s. After collision the two cars interlocked to each other, and the wreckage dragged with a new speed. What is the lost of kinetic energy during the collision ? A 1000 kg moving at 15 m/s to the right collided head-on with another 1500 kg car who was coming in the opposite direction...
