In a fireworks display, a rocket is launched from the ground with a speed of 18.0 m/s and a direction of 51.0° above the horizon

tal. During the flight, the rocket explodes into two pieces of equal mass. (a) What horizontal distance from the launch point will the center of mass of the two pieces be after both have landed on the ground? (b) If one piece lands a horizontal distance of 26.0 m from the launch point, where does the other piece land?

Answer:38.66 m

Explanation:

Given

launch angle \theta =51^{\circ}

launch velocity u=18 m/s

center of mass continue to travel its original Path so it center of mass will be at a distance of

R=\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}

R=\frac{18^2\sin 102}{9.8}

R=32.33 m

Center of mass will be at x=32.33 m

(b)if one of the piece will be at x=26  m then other will be at

x_{com}=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}

x_{com}=\frac{\frac{m}{2}\cdot 26+\frac{m}{2}\cdot x_0}{\frac{m}{2}+\frac{m}{2}}

32.33=\frac{26+x_0}{2}

x_0=38.66 m

Explain why increasing the mass of a car affects how the car rolls down a ramp.
Irina-Kira [14]
F = ma (force = mass x acceleration)

So the car’s mass affects the amount of force, changing how it would roll down a ramp, I think.

Answer:   A    Answers. Assuming that the terminal velocity doesn't change during the fall, then the kinetic energy would remain constant. However the terminal velocity decreases during the fall since the air becomes denser at lower altitudes.

Explanation:

What happens to the KE of an object when it slows down and heats up? - Quora. The kinetic energy goes down and the loss of the kinetic energy is through the production of heat energy. In real world this is due to friction, or an opposing force that decelerates the object, or a combination of both.

A concave mirror always forms a virtual image of a real object. O True O False
kifflom [539]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Explanation:

The spherical mirrors are the mirror that are a part of a sphere. Concave and convex mirrors are two types of spherical mirrors.

A concave mirror always forms real and inverted image. A convex mirror forms real and virtual images.

For concave mirror, the value of magnification is less that 1. Also, the focal length is negative for concave mirrors.

So, the given statement is false as a concave mirror always forms a real and inverted image. Hence, this is the required solution.
