A uniform 40-N board supports two children weighing 500 N and 350 N. If the support is at the center of the board and the 500-N

child is 1.5 m from its center, How far is the 350-N child from the center?

Answer:

b= 2.14 m

Explanation:

Given that

Weight of the board ,wt = 40 N

Wight of the first children , wt₁=500 N

Weight of the second children ,wt₂ = 350 N

The distance of the 500 N child from center ,a= 1.5 m

lets take distance of the 350 N child from center = b m

Now by taking the moment about the center of the board

We know that moment = Force x Perpendicular distance from the force

wt₁ x a = wt₂ x b

500 x 1.5 = 350 x b

b= 2.14 m

Therefore the distance of the 350 N weight child from the center is 2.14 m.

Answer:

1.034m/s

Explanation:

We define the two moments to develop the problem. The first before the collision will be determined by the center of velocity mass, while the second by the momentum preservation. Our values are given by,

m_1 = 65000kg\\v_1 = 0.8m/s\\m_2 = 92000kg\\v_2 = 1.2m/s

<em>Part A)</em> We apply the center of mass for velocity in this case, the equation is given by,

V_{cm} = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

Substituting,

V_{cm} = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

V_{cm} = 1.034m/s

Part B)

For the Part B we need to apply conserving momentum equation, this formula is given by,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Where here v_f is the velocity after the collision.

v_f = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

v_f = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

v_f = 1.034m/s

Conservation of linear momentum:

m*v inital = m*v final

0.06*0.7 + 0.03*0 = 0.06*(-0.2) + 0.03*v

(my algebra, or use ur calculator: 0.06*.07=0.042, etc ... or ur teacher may think you got some help)

0.06*(0.7+0.2)=0.03*v, v = 0.06*0.9/0.03=1.8 m/s

Answer 1.8 m/s (positive, to the right).

zzz [600]

Answer:

0.22m/s

Explanation:

The total momentum of the System is conserved. Total momentum of the system before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the system after collision. The total momentum is the sum of individual momentum of all the objects in that system.

momentum of an object = mass* velocity

Total Momentum before collision = 0.2*0.3 + 0.1*0.1= 0.07 kg⋅m/s;

Total momentum after collision = 0.1*0.26 + 0.2*x = 0.07;

Solve for x.
