A2500 kg car going 35 m/a hits a 4000kg truck that is sitting still. what is the velocity of the truck if the car transfers all of its momentum to the truck?

Velocity of truck is 21.875 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the car (m) = 2500 kg

Initial speed of the car (u) = 35 m/s

Mass of the truck (M) = 4000 kg

Initial speed of the truck (U) = 0 m/s (Rest)

As per question, the total momentum of the car gets transferred to the truck.

Therefore, the final momentum of the car is 0.

Momentum is given as the product of mass and velocity.

So, if momentum becomes zero means the velocity becomes 0.

Therefore, final velocity of the car (v) = 0 m/s

Let the final velocity of truck be 'V' m/s.

Now, during collision, the total momentum remains conserved.

Initial momentum  = Final momentum.

Initial momentum of car + Initial momentum of truck = Final momentum of car + Final momentum of truck.

⇒

Therefore, the velocity of the truck is 21.875 m/s.

it's when something is going so fast it makes a loud noise, breaking the sound barrier, for example: a jet makes a loud noise, not only cause of the jet but because they reached a point where they went so fast that you can year the noise from various parts, kinda like a police car, lets say the car was going   so fast that you hear the siren of the cop car right next to you, but the car is probably a mile a way, it's cos the siren was next to you a few seconds if you understand me
