A projectile of mass 1.800 kg approaches a stationary target body at 4.800 m/s. The projectile is deflected through an angle of
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of the projectile = 1.8 Kg

speed of the target = 4.8 m/s

angle of deflection = 60°

Speed after collision = 2.9 m/s

magnitude of momentum after collision = ?

initial momentum of the body = m x v

                                                  = 1.8 x 4.8 = 8.64 kg.m/s

final momentum after collision

momentum along x-direction

P_x = m v cos θ

P_x = 1.8 x 2.9 x  cos 60°

P_x = 2.61 kg.m/s

momentum along y-direction

P_y = m v sin θ

P_y = 1.8 x 2.9 x  sin 60°

P_y = 4.52 kg.m/s

net momentum of the body

P = \sqrt{P_x^2 + P_y^2}

P = \sqrt{4.52^2 + 2.61^2}

 P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

momentum magnitude after collision is equal to P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

Which of the following statements about the nuclear strong force is true?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: 2, the nuclear strong force drops to practically nothing at large distances.

Explanation: The protons and neutrons in the nucleus share subatomic particles called pions. This exchange is what keeps the protons and neutrons stuck together in the nucleus. Despite the strong force being the strongest force, it has a very small range. This is because pions have very short lifespans. So, the strong force would have literally no effect at large distances.

Hope that helped! :)

A rigid tank internal energy of fluid 800kJ. Fluid loses 500kJ of heat and padle wheel does 100kJ of work. Find final internal e
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

 U₂ = 400 KJ      

Explanation:

Given that

Initial energy of the tank ,U₁= 800 KJ

Heat loses by fluid ,Q= - 500 KJ

Work done on the fluid ,W= - 100 KJ

Sign -

1.Heat rejected by system - negative

2.Heat gain by system - Positive

3.Work done by system = Positive

4.Work done on the system-Negative

Lets take final internal energy =U₂

We know that

Q= U₂ - U₁ + W

-500 = U₂ - 800 - 100

U₂ = -500 +900 KJ

U₂ = 400 KJ

Therefore the final internal energy = 400 KJ

Choose the best explanation from among the following: A. It takes more energy to go from the Moon to the Earth because the Moon
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

B. The escape speed of the Moon is less than that of the Earth; therefore, less energy is required to leave the Moon.

Explanation:

Since the speed required to escape from the gravitational attraction of the Moon is less than the speed required to escape from the gravitational attraction of the Earth, less energy is required to travel from the Moon to the Earth, than is required to travel from the Earth to the Moon. This is because the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the velocity.

A wire loop of radius 0.50 m lies so that an external magnetic field of magnitude 0.40 T is perpendicular to the loop. The field
vazorg [7]

The magnitude of the induced emf is given by:

ℰ = |Δφ/Δt|

ℰ = emf, Δφ = change in magnetic flux, Δt = elapsed time

The magnetic field is perpendicular to the loop, so the magnetic flux φ is given by:

φ = BA

B = magnetic field strength, A = loop area

The area of the loop A is given by:

A = πr²

r = loop radius

Make a substitution:

φ = B2πr²

Since the strength of the magnetic field is changing while the radius of the loop isn't changing, the change in magnetic flux Δφ is given by:

Δφ = ΔB2πr²

ΔB = change in magnetic field strength

Make another substitution:

ℰ = |ΔB2πr²/Δt|

Given values:

ΔB = 0.20T - 0.40T = -0.20T, r = 0.50m, Δt = 2.5s

Plug in and solve for ℰ:

ℰ = |(-0.20)(2π)(0.50)²/2.5|

ℰ = 0.13V
