Trolley A weighs 5kg and is moving at 15m/s to the right. It collides with a stationary Trolley B, weighing 10kg more than Trolley A. After the collision they move off together. Calulate the velocity that they move off with.

To start with, we should work out all of the quantities we need: Mass of Trolley A: M A = 5kg Mass of Trolley B: B weighs 10kg more than A --> Therefore M B = 10 + 5 = 15kg Mass of Both Trolleys together:...

Solve the equation log(1-x) - log(x) = 1 where log() is the logarithmic function, base 10.

From the rules of logarithms, we know that: log(A) - log(B) = log(A/B) and thus: log(1-x) - log(x) = log[(1-x)/x] Therefore from the question, we know: log[(1-x)/x] = 1 If we then take both sides of the equa...
