The total moment in an islated system remains constant through time. a) V₂ = <u>109.43 m/s </u>and V₃ = <u>33.33 m/s</u>. b) h = <u>56.67 m.</u> c) d = 480 m.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>

First let us remember that momentum or lineal momentum is a motion quantity. In physics it is the fundamental quantity that characterizes the motion of any object.

The momentum is a vectorial quantity that can be calculated as the product of the object mass by its lineal velocity ⇒ mv

The total lineal moment of a system constituted by a group of objects is the sum of the vectorial moments of each of the objects.

In an isolated system -the one that does not interact with the exterior environment-, the moment remains constant through time. This is the <u><em>law of conservation of momentum</em></u>. The initial moment is equal to the final moment ⇒ Pinitial = Pfinal

Objects involved in crushes, explosions, collitions, and others, are considered to be isolated systems.  

.......................

So, in the exposed example we know that,

  • Projectile mass ⇒2kg.
  • Velocity = 50 m/s.
  • Angle⇒ 40°.
  • Smaller masses ⇒ 1 kg with 10m/s speed, 0.7 kg, and 0.3 kg.

<u>a) </u>We need to calculate the speed of the 0.7 and 0.3 kg objects.

So, 0.7 kg object moves in the original forward direction, meaning that we can use the following formula to calculate its velocity,

m₀v₀ = m₂v₂

Where

  • m₀ = projectile mass = 2kg
  • v₀ = horizontal component of projectile velocity
  • m₂ = object mass = 0.7 kg
  • v₂ = object velocity = ??

So first, we need to get the horizontal component of projectile velocity, V₀.

V₀ = V cosθ

V₀ = 50 cos40º

<u>V₀ </u><u>= 38.3 m/s</u>

<u />

Now we can calculate the velocity of the 0.7 kg object.

m₀v₀ = m₂v₂

2 kg x 38.3 m/s = 0.7 kg x v₂

v₂ = (2 x 38.3) / 0.7

<u>v₂ </u><u>= 109.43 m/s</u>

<u />

Now we need to calculate the velocity of the 0.3 kg object. Since this part goes exactly in the opposite direction of the 10 kg object, their addition will equal zero. So we can use the following equation to calculate the velocity of the 0.3 kg object.

m₁v₁ + m₃v₃ = 0

Where

  • m₁ = 1 kg object mass
  • v₁ = 1 kg object velocity = 10m/s
  • m₃ = 0.3 kg object mass
  • v₃ = object velocity = ??

m₁v₁ + m₃v₃ = 0

(1 kg x 10m/s) + (0.3 kg x v₃ ) = 0

(0.3 kg x v₃ ) = - (1 kg x 10m/s)

v₃ = - (1 kg x 10m/s) / 0.3

<u>v₃ </u><u>= - 33.33 m/s</u>

<u />

The - sign is indicating the opposite direction concerning the 1 kg object.

<u>ANSWER</u>:

  • The speed of the 0.7 kg object is <u>109.43 m/s</u>
  • The speed of the 0.3 kg objects is <u>33.33 m/s</u>

<u />

.........................

<u />

<u>b)</u> We need to get the high from the break-up point where the 0.3-kg piece go before rest

At rest,

1/2 m₃v₃² = m₃gh

Where,

  • m₃ = 0.3 kg object mass
  • v₃ = object velocity = 33.33m/s
  • g = gravity = 9.8 m/s²
  • h = high = ??

1/2 m₃v₃² = m₃gh

h = 1/2 (v₃²) /g

h = 1/2 (33.33²) / 9.8

<u>h </u><u>= 56.67 m</u>

ANSWER: The high from the break-up point where the 0.3-kg piece go before coming to rest is <u>56.67 m.</u>

<u />

........................

c) Finally, we need to get where does the 0.7-kg piece land

ANSWER: The distance at which the 0.7 piece lands, concerning the point from which it was fired is <u>480 m</u>.

A car traveling at 38 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 10 seconds. What is its acceleration?
asambeis [7]

a=v/t

a=38/10

a=-3.8 m/s^2

You put the negative in front of 3.8 because it decelerated.

Hope it helps and is correct :)

804 n of force are applied to a 51.7 kg. What is the acceleration that the object experiences?
Andreyy89

We can use Newton II here  (where F=m*a), that F is the net (or resultant) force on the object, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration the object experiences.

This means, in this case there would be no friction and absolutely no other force which gives a component in the plane of motion, only then can you assume that F=804N.

Now using F= m*a

804 = 51.7*a

Therefore a = 804/51.7 = 15.55 m/s²

What is the net force​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

20 N in West direction.

Explanation:

opposite forces cancel each other. so 20 N in north and 20N in south cancel each other. In west and east direction...

70N in west-50N in east= 20N in west

nalin [4]

Answer:

Negative

Explanation:

If the box is heading right in the positive direction, the work will be negative. The spring has an opposite force to that of the box.

Hope this helped. :)

Which is a correct statement of what occurs at a turbine during electricity production?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The turbine is rotated and rotates the generator to produce electricity.

Explanation:

Within a turbine enters the superheated steam which is at high pressure and high temperature, this steam is previously formed in the boiler when the steam enters the turbine hits each one of the blades of the turbine making it rotate at a given speed, the turbine shaft is coupled to the shaft of an electric generator and thus generates electricity.

It is also important to say that when the steam comes out of the turbine comes out at low pressure, this way the internal operating process is carried out within the turbine.
