Hint 1 Two cars approach an extremely icy four-way perpendicular intersection. Car A travels northward at 33 m/s and car B is traveling eastward. They collide and stick together, traveling at 380 north of east. What was the initial velocity of car B? You may assume that the cars have the same mass. Round your answer to one decimal place. m/s VB
Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1200 kg and is approaching at 8.00m/s due south. The second car has a mass of 850 kg and is approaching at 17.0m/s due west. (a) Calculate the final velocity (magnitude and direction) of the cars. (b) How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision? - Please provide a detailed explanation of the solution process.
Determine expression for the distance the cars will move until they stop if the coefficient of kinetic friction μk between the cars' tires and the road is about the same for both cars. Express your answer in terms of the variables m1, m2, v1, v2, μk, and appropriate constants. A car of mass mi traveling north at a speed of vi collides with a car of mass m2 traveling east at a speed of v2. They lock together after the...
A 1200 kg car traveling 45.0o south of east at 18.0 m/s collides with a 850 kg car traveling north at 23.0 m/s. The cars stick together. What is the velocity of the wreckage just 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...
Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1250 kg and was approaching at 6.00 m/s due south. The second car has a mass of 900 kg and was approaching at 17.0 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...
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
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.
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)
