4. A trolley of mass 2kg rests next to a trolley of mass 3 kg on a flat
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

a. The total momentum of the trolleys which are at rest before the separation is zero

b. The total momentum of the trolleys after separation is zero

c. The momentum of the 2 kg trolley after separation is 12 kg·m/s

d. The momentum of the 3 kg trolley is -12 kg·m/s

e. The velocity of the 3 kg trolley = -4 m/s

Explanation:

a. The total momentum of the trolleys which are at rest before the separation is zero

b. By the principle of the conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of the trolleys after separation = The total momentum of the trolleys before separation = 0

c. The momentum of the 2 kg trolley after separation = Mass × Velocity = 2 kg × 6 m/s = 12 kg·m/s

d. Given that the total momentum of the trolleys after separation is zero, the momentum of the 3 kg trolley is equal and opposite to the momentum of the 2 kg trolley = -12 kg·m/s

e. The momentum of the 3 kg trolley = Mass of the 3 kg Trolley × Velocity of the 3 kg trolley

∴ The momentum of the 3 kg trolley = 3 kg × Velocity of the 3 kg trolley = -12 kg·m/s

The velocity of the 3 kg trolley = -12 kg·m/s/(3 kg) = -4 m/s

If a 10 meter ramp helps you move a 500 kg object up 1 meter. What was the mechanical advantage of the ramp?
sattari [20]
The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is

(Length of the incline) / (its height)

= (10m) / (1m)

= 10 .

It's the same for any load, and doesn't depend on the mass that you're trying to move up or down the ramp.

How much energy does a 50 kg rock have if it is sitting on the edge of a 15 m cliff?
noname [10]

Answer:

7350 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of the rock sitting on the edge of the cliff is given by:

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the rock

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the height of the cliff

In this problem, we have

m = 50 kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

h = 15 m

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find:

U=(50 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(15 m)=7350 J
