Two football players run towards each other along a straight path in Penrith Park in the clash between the Melbourne storms and the Penrith Panthers a month ago. Melbourne's Justin Olam who is about 95kg and ran towards Viliame Kikau at 3.75m/s. Viliame Kikau is 111kg and moves towards Justin Olam at 4.10m/s. They end up in a head-on collision and are stuck together. A) What is their velocity immediately after the collision?

B) What are the initial and final kinetic energies of the system?​

a) v = 0.4799 m / s,  b)  K₀ = 1600.92 J,    K_f = 5.46 J

Explanation:

a) How the two players collide this is a momentum conservation exercise. Let's define a system formed by the two players, so that the forces during the collision are internal and also the system is isolated, so the moment is conserved.

Initial instant. Before the crash

        p₀ = m v₁ + M v₂

where m = 95 kg and his velocity is v₁ = -3.75 m / s, the other player's data is M = 111 kg with velocity v₂ = 4.10 m / s, we have selected the direction of this player as positive

Final moment. After the crash

       p_f = (m + M) v

as the system is isolated, the moment is preserved

       p₀ = p_f

       m v₁ + M v₂ = (m + M) v

       v =

let's calculate

        v =

        v = 0.4799 m / s

b) let's find the initial kinetic energy of the system

         K₀ = ½ m v1 ^ 2 + ½ M v2 ^ 2

         K₀ = ½ 95 3.75 ^ 2 + ½ 111 4.10 ^ 2

         K₀ = 1600.92 J

the final kinetic energy

         K_f = ½ (m + M) v ^ 2

         k_f = ½ (95 + 111) 0.4799 ^ 2

         K_f = 5.46 J

weather forecasts are done by collecting data about the current state of the atmosphere mainly the temperature, humidity and wind and using meteorology, to determine the atmosphere that evolves over time. the h and l mean the high and low pressure. the red strip is a warm front. the blue strip is a cold front. the blue and red strip is a stationary front. the purple strip is a occluded front.
