A Roller Derby Exhibition recently came to town. They packed the gym for twoconsecutive weekend nights at South's field house. O

n Saturday evening, the68-kg Anna Mosity was moving at 17 m/s when she collided with 76-kg SandraDay O'Klobber who was moving forward at 12 m/s and directly in Anna's path.Anna jumped onto Sandra's back and the two continued moving together atthe same speed. Determine their speed immediately after the collision.

Answer:

14.4 m/s

Explanation:

mass of Anna (Ma) = 68 kg

speed of Anna (Va) = 17 m/s

mass of SandraDay (Ms) = 76 kg

speed of SandraDay (Vs) = 12 m/s

We can find their speed (V) immediately after collision from the conservation of momentum where

(Ma x Va) + (Ms + Vs) = (Ma + Ms) x V

where V = speed immediately after collision

(68 x 17) + (76 + 12) = (68 + 76) x V

2068 = 144 V

V = 2068 / 144 = 14.4 m/s

Identify the row that contains two scalars and one vector quantity: Distance Acceleration Velocity Speed Mass Acceleration Dista
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Speed, mass and acceleration

Explanation:

A scalar quantity is a quantity that has only magnitude but no direction while a vector quantity has both magnitude and direction.

According to the question, the row that has two scalars and one vector is speed, mass and acceleration.

The two scalars in this row are speed and mass while the vector quantity there is the acceleration.

Acceleration has direction since it possess direction. A body accelerating will do so in a particular direction. Speed and mass doesn't possess any direction. Mass only specify the magnitude of the body but no clue as to which direction is the body moving towards.

Speed also only specify the

total distance covered with respect to time but not the direction of the direction.

A certain alarm clock ticks four times each second, with each tick representing half a period. The balance wheel consists of a t
Semenov [28]

Answer:

a. I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

b. K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

Explanation:

The inertia can be find using

a.

I = m*r^2

m = 0.95 g * \frac{1 kg}{1000g}=9.5x10^{-4} kg

r=0.54 cm * \frac{1m}{100cm} =5.4x10^{-3}m

I = 9.5x10^{-4}kg*(5.4x10^{-3}m)^2

I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

now to find the torsion constant can use knowing the period of the balance

b.

T=0.5 s

T=2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{I}{K}}

Solve to K'

K = \frac{4\pi^2* I}{T^2}=\frac{4\pi^2*2.7702 kg*m^2}{(0.5s)^2}

K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

Two cars start 200 m apart and drive toward each other at a steady 10 m/s. On the front of one of them, an energetic grasshopper
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Total distance does the grasshopper travel before the cars hit is 150 m

Explanation:

Each car moves x=100 m before they collide. Both the cars moving in constant velocity. time taken t by each car is

t=\frac{x}{v}

where x  is the distance traveled with velocity v

t=\frac{100}{10}\\t=10 sec

The insect is moving through this time period with a constant velocity of 15 m/s

The distance traveled by grasshopper  is

distance=V_{gh} \times t\\distance=15 \times 10\\distance=150 m

Robin Hood wishes to split an arrow already in the bull's-eye of a target 40 m away.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

5.843 m

Explanation:

suppose that the arrow leave the bow with a horizontal speed , towards he bull's eye.

lets consider that horizontal motion

distance = speed * time

time = 40/ 37 = 1.081 s

arrow doesnot have a initial vertical velocity component. but it has a vertical motion due to gravity , which may cause a miss of the target.

applying motion equation

(assume g = 10 m/s²)

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}*gt^{2}  \\= 0+\frac{1}{2}*10*1.081^{2}\\= 5.843 m

Arrow misses the target by 5.843m ig the arrow us split horizontally
