A 40-Ω resistor is connected in series to the parallel combination of a 60-Ω resistor and a 30-Ω resistor to form a load a 120-V. Determine the current through and the voltage across each resistor.
In a road accident, a van of mass 1500 kg moving at a speed of 28m * s ^ - 1 ran into the back of a car of mass 900 kg moving in the same direction at a speed of 11m * s ^ - 1 . As a result of the impact, the car was pushed forward at a speed of 18m * s ^ - 1 .
a Calculate the velocity of the van immediately after the impact.
b Calculate:
i the loss of kinetic energy of the van, ii the gain of kinetic energy of the car,
iii the total change of kinetic energy of the two vehicles.
