Answer:

ucosφ=-v2cosθ2\\\\φ=cos^{-1} (\frac{-v2cosθ2}{cosφ} )

Explanation:

Two identical sticky masses m are moving in the xy-plane, with their momenta at an angle of φ with one another. They are each moving at the same speed v when they collide at the origin of the coordinates and stick together. After the collision, the masses move at an angle −θ2 with respect to the +x axis at speed v2 .1. What was the angle φ?

from the principle of momentum

In a system of colliding bodies,we know that the total momentum before collision will equal to the total momentum after collision.

Take note that momentum is the product of mass and velocity

momentum before collision=momentum after collision

mass, m

u=initial velocity of the identical masses

v2=the common velocity after the collision

Note that the collision is inelastic , since they both moved with the same velocity

umcosφ+umcosφ=(m+m)v2cos−θ2

2mucosφ=2mv2cos−θ2

ucosφ=-v2cosθ2\\\\φ=cos^{-1} (\frac{-v2cosθ2}{cosφ} )

A comet of mass 1.20 × 10¹⁰kg moves in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Its distance from the Sun ranges between 0.500 AU and

The eccentricity of its orbit is $$U=-2.13 \times 10^{17} \mathrm{~J} .\end{aligned}$$

<h3>What is mass?</h3>
  • Mass is a physical body's total amount of matter. It also serves as a gauge for the body's inertia or resistance to acceleration (change in velocity) in the presence of a net force. The strength of an object's gravitational pull to other bodies is also influenced by its mass.
  • The kilogram is the SI unit of mass (kg). In science and technology, a body's weight in a given reference frame is the force that causes it to accelerate at a rate equal to the local acceleration of free fall in that frame.
  • For instance, a kilogram mass weighs around 2.2 pounds at the surface of the planet. However, the same kilogram mass would weigh just about 0.8 pounds on Mars and about 5.5 pounds on Jupiter.
  • An object's mass is a crucial indicator of how much stuff it contains. Weight is a measurement of an object's gravitational pull. It is influenced by the object's location in addition to its mass. As a result, weight is a measurement of force.

The length of the semi-major axis is calculated as follows:

where, $G=6.67 \times 10^{-1} \mathrm{~m}^3 / \mathrm{kgs}$

$M=1.99 \times 10^{30} \mathrm{~kg}=$mass of sur

$m=1.20 \times 10^{10} \mathrm{~kg}$ - a mass of the comet

$$\begin{aligned}\therefore \quad \text { At aphelion, } r &=50 \times U \\&=50 \times 1.496 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{~m} . \\U=-\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times \mathrm{m} 1.99 \times 10^{30} \times 1.20 \times 10^{10}}{50 \times 1.496 \times 10^{11}} \\U=-2.13 \times 10^{17} \mathrm{~J} .\end{aligned}$$

$$U=-2.13 \times 10^{17} \mathrm{~J} .\end{aligned}$$

Explain what a concentration gradient is and what it means for a molecule to diffuse down its
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Diffusing the gradient ensures that most of the molecules in high concentration zone will wind up in the previously low concentration by the spontaneous movement of small molecules.

Explanation:

A gradient of concentration is the difference between in concentration of one place / area substance to different area. Having a molecule flow down its concentration gradient means moving the molecules from hypotonic areas to the concentration hypertonic areas

Diffusing the gradient ensures that most of the molecules in high concentration zone will wind up in the previously low concentration by the spontaneous movement of small molecules.

A system had 150 kj of work done on it and its internal energy increased by 60 kj. How much energy did the system gain or lose a
mina [271]

Answer:

The system loses 90 kJ of heat

Explanation:

We can answer the question by using the 1st law of thermodynamics, which states that:

\Delta U=Q-W

where

\Delta U is the change in internal energy of the system

Q is the heat absorbed by the system (positive if absorbed, negative if released by the system)

W is the work done by the system (positive if done by the system, negative if done by the surrounding on the system)

In this problem, we have:

W=-150 kJ is the work done (negative, because it is done by the surrounding on the system)

\Delta U=+60 kJ is the increase in internal energy

Using the equation above, we can find Q, the heat absorbed/released by the system:

Q=\Delta U+W=+60 kJ+(-150 kJ)=-90 kJ

And the negative sign means that the system has lost this heat.
