A 930-kg sports car collides into the rear end of a 2000-kg SUV stopped at a red light. The bumpers lock, the brakes are locked, and the two cars skid forward 2.8 m before stopping. The police officer, estimating the coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and road to be 0.80, calculates the speed of the sports car at impact.

2.103 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of sports car

mass of SUV

Suppose u is the velocity if sports car before collision

Conserving momentum we get

After collision the combined mass drag 2.8 m and finally stops

From work energy theorem work done by friction is equal to change in kinetic energy of the  combined mass system

where

Initial velocity

the temperature and the pressure affect solubility. temperature affects by changing the properties of the solvent. the increase in pressure increases solubility, the decrease in pressure decreases solubility.
