from conservation of linear momentum initial momentum = final momentum
negative sign indicate that cars moves to the left.
The electrical resistance in ohms of a certain thermometer varies with temperature according to the approximate law : R =R[1 + (T –T )] The resistance is 101.6 at the triple-point of water 273.16 K, and 165.5 at the normal melting point of lead (600.5 K). What is the temperature when the resistance is 123.4 ?
There are three rules on determining how many significant figures are in a number:
So keeping these rules in mind, there are 1 significant digit.
Initial velocity u = 20.0 m/s
At maximum height it ll stop
So final velocity v = 0 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s2
Time taken to reach maximum height = t
We know
v = u + at
=>
[g is taken negative because it is in opposite direction of motion.]
