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

Answer:

Incomplete question

This is the completed question

If the resistor in the circuit had a larger resistance then the current would be then have to be proportionally smaller. Because the batteries each give off 1.5 volts then the current would have to be the variable that would change. What affect would using a 12V car battery have on the operation of your circuit? (Do not try this.) What would happen to the current? What would happen to the resistor?

Explanation:

Using ohms law as our basis

Ohms law state that, the voltage in an ohmic conductor is directly proportional to the current

V∝I

Resistance is the constant of proportionality

Then

V=iR

Since we want a relationship between current and resistance.

then, I=V/R

So, current is inversely proportional to Resistance

as the current increase the resistance reduce and as the current reduces the resistance increases.

a. So, increasing the voltage from 1.5V to 12V increases the current In the circuit because voltage Is directly proportional to I.

From ohms law

V=iR

When v =1.5V

I=1.5/R

When V increase to 12V

I=12/R

I.e, it increases by a factor of 8. Eight times it's initial value

b. Now, the resistance in the circuit is the constant of proportionality and it doesn't change in a given circuit expect when using a variable resistoa r like rheostat.
