What is law of conservation of momentum ?Conservation of momentum states that For two or more bodies in an isolated system acting upon each other, their total momentum remains constant unless an external force is applied. Therefore, momentum can neither be created nor destroyed.
using conservation of momentum
m1v1 + m2v2 = m1 v1' + m2 v2'
Given
m1 = 3154 kg
v1= 6m/s
m2 = 8296 kg
v2 = 23 m/s
v1' = 7m/s
v2' = ?
3154 * 6 + 8296 * 23 = 3154 * 7 + 8296 v2'
209732 - 22078 = 8296 v2'
187654 = 8296 v2'
v2' = 22.62 ≈ 23 m/s east

Which pairs of elements could not react to form an Ionic compound
Answer:
Sodium and calcium
Explanation:
Answer:
Ionic bond is the name given to one of the three ways in which atoms can interact with each other. The other forms of interaction between atoms are the covalent bond, which occurs between atoms of ametals, hydrogens, or ametal and hydrogen, and the metallic bond, which occurs only between atoms of the same metal.
Explanation
:The atoms of the chemical elements that participate in the ionic bond must present, necessarily, the nature of gaining or losing electrons, thus, the ionic bond can occur between:
a metal and an ametal;
a metal and hydrogen.
Sodium: metallic element, as it has the characteristic of losing electron; belonging to the IA family, atomic number 11, with an electron in the valence shell.
Chlorine: ametalic element, as it has the characteristic of gaining electrons; belonging to the VIIA family, with atomic number 17.

As part of a carnival game, a 5.00 kg target is freely hanging from a very long and very light wire. Contestants can use one of two 1.5 kg balls to try to hit the target and deflect it high enough to win a prize. Ball A will have an elastic collision and bounce back toward you while ball B will have a nearly perfectly inelastic collision, but rather than sticking to the target, the ball will just drop straight downward to the ground after the collision. You can throw each ball with a velocity of 12 m/s. You are the first to try the game and which ball should you throw? Calculate the expected height the target will reach after each is thrown.
Answer:
Height ball A will deflect the target is 2.65 m
Height ball A will deflectthe target is 2.2 m
Ball A, will deflect the target to greater height, thus i will throw ball A
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the target, m₁ = 5.00 kg
mass of the ball, m₂ = 1.5 kg
initial velocity of each throw, u = 12 m/s
Throwing ball A; apply the principle of conservation linear momentum for elastic collision;
m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v₁m₁ + v₂m₂
The initial velocity of the target, u₁ = 0
The ball bounced back at the same speed, v₂ = -12 m/s
the velocity of the target after collision, = v₁
0 + 1.5 x 12 = v₁(5) + (-12 x 1.5)
18 = 5v₁ - 18
18 + 18 = 5v₁
36 = 5v₁
v₁ = 36/5
v₁ = 7.2 m/s
The vertical height reached by the target is given by;
v₁² = u₁² + 2gh
v₁² = 0 + 2gh
v₁² = 2gh
h = v₁² / 2g
h = (7.2)² / (2 x 9.8)
h = 2.65 m
Throwing ball B; apply the principle of conservation energy for the inelastic collision;
the kinetic energy of the ball will be converted to the potential energy of the target.
¹/₂m₁u₂² = mgh
¹/₂(1.5)(12)² = (5 x 9.8)h
108 = 49h
h = 108 / 49
h = 2.2 m
Ball A will deflect the target to greater height, thus i will throw ball A.
A jet must reach a velocity of 75 m/s for takeoff. If the runway is
2100 meters long, what must the constant acceleration be?
Answer:
[tex]a=1.33\ m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
Initialy, the jet is at rest, u = 0
Final velocity of the jet, v = 75 m/s
Distance, d = 2100 m
We need to find the acceleration of the jet. It is based on the concept of equation of kinematics. Using third equation of motion, w get :
[tex]v^2-u^2=2ad[/tex]
a is acceleration
[tex]75^2=2a\times 2100\\\\a=\dfrac{75^2}{2\times 2100}\\\\a=1.33\ m/s^2[/tex]
So, the acceleration of the jet is [tex]1.33\ m/s^2[/tex].

Imagine that you throw a rock into the air. When you release the rock, it is moving at 19.4 m/s. The rock flies straight up into the air and returns back to your hand. For how long was the rock in the air? Note: acceleration due to gravity is -9.81 m/s/s.
Answer:
4 s
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Initial velocity (u) = 19.4 m/s.
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = –9.81 m/s²
Total time (T) =.?
Next, we shall determine the time take by the rock to get to the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:
NOTE: At maximum height, the final velocity is zero.
Initial velocity (u) = 19.4 m/s.
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = –9.81 m/s²
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
Time taken to reach the maximum height (t) =.?
v = u + gt
0 = 19.4 + (–9.81 × t)
0 = 19.4 – 9.81t
Collect like terms
0 – 19.4 = –9.81t
–19.4 = –9.81t
Divide both side by –9.81
t = –19.4 / –9.81
t ≈ 2 s
Thus, it took approximately 2 s for the rock to reach its maximum height.
Finally, we shall determine the total time spent by the rock in the air as follow:
Time taken to reach the maximum height (t) = 2 s
Total time spent in air (T) =?
The total time (T) spent by the rock in the air will be two times the time taken (t) to reach the maximum height i.e
T = 2t
t = 2 s
T = 2 × 2
T = 4 s
Therefore, the rock spent approximately 4 s in the air.

2) A boat travels 12.0 m while it reduces its velocity from 9.5 m/s to 5.5 m/s. What is the
boat's acceleration while it travels that distance?
Answer:
2.5m/s^2
Explanation:
Note that the boat is reducing its speed. It is having negative acceleration or deceleration.
V^2 = u^2 -2as ( minus sign is used because of speed is reduced)
Given that,
s = 12 m
v = 5.5 m/s
u = 9.5 m/s
a = (v^2 - u^2) ÷ (-2s)
a= ( 5.5^2 - 9.5^2) ÷ ( -2× 12)
a = 2.5 m/s^2
The acceleration of the boat is -2.5 m/s²
The given paramters;
distance traveled by the boat, d = 12 m
initial velocity of the boat, u = 9.5 m/s
final velocity of the boat, v = 5.5 m/s
The acceleration of the boat is calculated as;
[tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2as\\\\2as = v^2 - u^2\\\\a = \frac{v^2 - u^2}{2s} \\\\a = \frac{(5.5)^2 -(9.5)^2 }{2(12)} \\\\a = -2.5 \ m/s^2[/tex]
Thus, the deceleration of the boat is 2.5 m/s²

a single frictionless roller coaster car of mass m=750 kg tops the first hill with speed v=15 m/s ar height h =40m as shown
1) Find the speed of the car at B and C
2) if mass m were doubled, would the speed at B increase, decrease, or remain the same?
1. The speed of the roller coaster car at point B and C: are 19.8 m/s and 0 m/s respectively.
2. If mass (m) of the roller coaster car were doubled, the speed at B would increase because energy is dependent on the mass of an object.
Given the following data:
Mass of roller coaster car = 750 kgSpeed of roller coaster car = 15 m/sHeight = 40 meters1. To find the speed of the roller coaster car at point B and C:
First of all, we would determine the potential energy of the roller coaster car by using the formula:
[tex]P.E = mgh[/tex]
Where:
m is the mass of object.g is the acceleration due to gravity ([tex]9.8\;m/s^2[/tex]).h is the height of an object.From the diagram, height at point B = [tex]\frac{h}{2} = \frac{40}{2} = 20[/tex] meters
[tex]P.E = 750(9.8)(20)[/tex]
P.E = 147000 Joules.
Next, we would determine the speed by applying the law of conservation of energy.
[tex]Kinetic\;energy = Potential\;energy\\\\\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = mgh[/tex]
Substituting the values, we have;
[tex]147000 = \frac{1}{2} (750)v^2\\\\147000 = 375v^2\\\\v^2 = \frac{147000}{375} \\\\v^2 = 392\\\\v = \sqrt{392}[/tex]
Speed, v = 19.8 m/s
From the diagram, at point C, the speed is equal to zero (0) meters per seconds.
2. If mass (m) of the roller coaster car were doubled, the speed at B would increase because energy is dependent on the mass of an object.

A 100 kg disc with radius 1.6 m is spinning horizontally at 25 rad/s. You place a 20 kg brick quickly and gently on the disc so that it sticks to the edge of the disc. Determine the final angular speed of the disc-brick system.
Answer:
20.83rad/s
Explanation:
Using the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1+m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
m1 and m2 are the mass of the disc and Brick respectively
u1 and u2 are the linear velocities respectively
v is their final velocity of the block-disc system
Given
m1 = 100kg
m2 = 20kg
u1 = wr =25×1.6
u1 = 40m/s
u2 = 0m/s (brick is stationary)
Substitute and the final linear velocity v
100(40)+20(0) = (100+20)v
4000 = 120v
v = 4000/120
v = 33.3m/s
From the formula;
v = wr
w = v/r
w= 33.3/1.6
w = 20.83rad/s.
Hence the final angular speed of the disc-brick system is 20.83rad/s
A cheetah can run at a maximum speed
91 km/h and a gazelle can run at a maximum speed of 72.7 km/h.
If both animals are running at full speed,
with the gazelle 87.5 m ahead, how long before
the cheetah catches its prey?
Answer in units of s.
