Answer: 25 kg

Identify the given information.
f = 250 N
a = 10 m/s^2

Choose which formula you should use. In this case, you are finding the mass.
The formula for force is f = ma, so, using this, it is easy to find the mass.

f = ma Divide by a for both sides
m = f/a Formula for mass!

The formula for mass is m = f/a, where f is force and a is acceleration.

Substitute.
m = (250 N)/(10 m/s^2)
m = 25 kg

Answer:

9.61 m

Explanation:

d1 = 8 m north

d2 = 1 m north west

d3 = 1 m vertically down

Write the displacements in vector form

$\overrightarrow{d_{1}}=8\widehat{j}m$

$\overrightarrow{d_{2}}=1 \left ( -Cos45\widehat{i}+Sin45\widehat{j} \right )m$

$\overrightarrow{d_{2}}=\left ( -0.707\widehat{i}+0.707\widehat{j} \right )m$

$\overrightarrow{d_{3}}=-1\widehat{k}m$

The resultant displacement is given by

$\overrightarrow{d}=\overrightarrow{d_{1}}+ \overrightarrow{d_{2}} +\overrightarrow{d_{3}}$

$\overrightarrow{d}=-0.707\widehat{i}+ 8.707\widehat{j} - 4\widehat{k}m$

The magnitude of displacement is given by

d =

$\sqrt{\left ( -0.707 \right )^{2}+\left ( 8.707 \right )^{2}+\left ( -4 \right )^{2}}$

d = 9.61 m

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e $\dfrac{m}{2}$ .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

$mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v$

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .
