Respuesta :
Answer:
a. 20 s
b. 0 m/s
c. right
d.no its inelastic because when the car b was at rest and a was coming in at it, since b had no force what so ever car a swept it away with it moving to the right
Explanation:
im not sure though
By applying conservation of linear momentum, the answers are:
1. Time = 2 s
2. 3 m/s
3. same direction
4. Inelastic collision
COLLISION
There are for types of collision. They are;
- Elastic Collision
- Perfectly elastic collision
- Inelastic collision
- Perfectly Inelastic collision
Given that a local church is hosting a carnival which includes a bumper car ride. Bumper car A and its driver have a mass of 300 kg; bumper car B and its driver have a mass of 200 kg. Bumper car A has a velocity to the right of 2 m/s and bumper car B is at rest. At t = 0 s, bumper car A and B are separated by 10 m. Bumper car A accelerates at 1 m/s2 to a velocity of 4 m/s and continues at this constant speed until colliding with bumper car B.
1. The time required for bumper car A to travel the 10 m to collide with bumper car B can be calculated by using first equation of linear motion.
V = U + at
Where
V = 4 m/s
U = 2 m/s
a = 1 m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
4 = 2 + t
t = 4 - 2
t = 2s
2. To calculate the speed of bumper car A following the collision with bumper car B, which now has a velocity to the right of 3 m/s, we will apply conservation of linear momentum
[tex]m_{1}u_{1}[/tex] = [tex]m_{1}v_{1}[/tex] + [tex]m_{2}v_{2}[/tex]
300 x 4 = 300V + 200 x 3
1200 = 300V + 300
300V = 1200 - 300
300V = 900
V = 900/300
V = 3 m/s
3. Since the final velocity of car A is positive, the direction of motion for bumper car A follows the collision with bumper car B to the right.
4. Since the both move at the same velocity, the collision inelastic.
