in an isolated system bicyclist 1 and bicyclist 2 each with a mass of 80 kg, collide. bicyclist 1 was moving to the right at 8 m

/s, while bicyclist 2 was moving to the left at 2 m/s. what is the magnitude of their combined momentum before the crash

Consider speed of bicyclist 1 as V1=+8m/s and bicyclist 2 as V2=-2m/s m=80kg

Since momentum has opposite signs moving to right or left

Therefore the combined momentum , P is given by :

P=m*V1+m*V2 =80*(8-2)kg*m/s=+480 kg m/s

Why does the solar system consist of small planets orbiting close to sun and larger on more distant

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The inner planets are smaller and rockier

Explanation:

Astronomers divide the planets into two groups in Solar system, the inner planets and outer planets. The inner planets are smaller and rockier and it is closer to the sun. The outer planets are larger , further far away and made of gas

The inner planets are Mercury, Venus , Earth and Mars. The outer planets Jupiter , Saturn , Uranus and Neptune comes after an asteroid belt. In some other planetary systems the gas are close to the sun.

particles in a disk of gas and dust will form Planets. If they orbit the star they are colliding and sticking. The stars wind blows away their gases . So the nearest planets to starts are rockier.

May you help me answer this

Firdavs [7]

1) See three Kepler laws below

2a) Acceleration is $2.2 m/s^2$

2b) Tension in the string: 27.4 N

3a) Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, potential energy is the energy due to the position

3b) The kinetic energy of the object is 2.25 J

Explanation:

1)

There are three Kepler's law of planetary motion:

1st law: the planets orbit the sun in elliptical orbits, with the Sun located at one of the 2 focii
2nd law: a segment connecting the Sun with each planet sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals. A direct consequence of this is that, when a planet is further from the sun, it travels slower, and when it is closer to the sun, it travels faster
3rd law: the square of the period of revolution of a planet around the sun is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit. Mathematically, $T^2 \propto r^3$ , where T is the period of revolution and r is the semi-major axis of the orbit

2a)

To solve the problem, we have to write the equation of motions for each block along the direction parallel to the incline.

For the block on the right, we have:

$M g sin \theta - T = Ma$ (1)

where

$Mg sin \theta$ is the component of the weight of the block parallel to the incline, with

M = 8.0 kg (mass of the block)

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration of gravity)

$\theta=35^{\circ}$

T = tension in the string

a = acceleration of the block

For the block on the left, we have similarly

$T-mg sin \theta = ma$ (2)

where

m = 3.5 kg (mass of the block)

$\theta=35^{\circ}$

From (2) we get

$T=mg sin \theta + ma$

Substituting into (1),

$M g sin \theta - mg sin \theta - ma = Ma$

Solving for a,

$a=\frac{M-m}{M+m}g sin \theta=\frac{8.0-3.5}{8.0+3.5}(9.8)(sin 35^{\circ})=2.2 m/s^2$

2b)

The tension in the string can be calculated using the equation

$T=mg sin \theta + ma$

where

m = 3.5 kg (mass of lighter block)

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

$\theta=35^{\circ}$

$a=2.2 m/s^2$ (acceleration found in part 2)

Substituting,

$T=(3.5)(9.8)(sin 35^{\circ}) +(3.5)(2.2)=27.4 N$

3a)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy due to its motion. It is calculated as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

The potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position in a gravitational field. For an object near the Earth's surface, it is given by

$U=mgh$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the strength of the gravitational field

h is the heigth of the object relative to the ground

3b)

The kinetic energy of an object is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the object in this problem,

m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

v = 3 m/s

Substituting, we find its kinetic energy:

$K=\frac{1}{2}(0.5)(3)^2=2.25 J$

Can you help me with this paper please I will give you 20 points!

sweet [91]

1) they are attracting because if you look at the arrows they’re all pointing the same way.

2) if the magnet was turned around they would do the opposite and not attract ( this is called repulsion)

3) magnetic pole

4)magnet

5) magnetic force

6) magnetism

Hope this helps

An electrical heater 100 mm long and 5 mm in diameter is inserted into a hole drilled normal to the surface of a large block of

slega [8]

Answer:

$T_{1}=94.9^{o}C$

Explanation:

Given data

length=100mm

Diameter=5mm

Thermal conductivity=5 W/m.K

Power=50 W

Temperature=25°C

The temperature of heater surface follows from the rate equation written as:

$T_{1}=T_{2}+\frac{q}{kS}$

Where S can be estimated from the conduction shape factor for a vertical cylinder in semi infinite medium

$S=\frac{2\pi L}{ln(\frac{4L}{D} )} \\$

Substitute the given values

$S=\frac{2\pi (0.1m)}{ln[\frac{4*0.1m}{0.005m} ]}\\ S=0.143m$

The temperature of heater is then:

$T_{1}=25^{o}C+\frac{50W}{5W/m.K*0.143m} \\T_{1}=94.9^{o}C$

The temperature reached by the heater when dissipating 50 W with the surface of the block at a temperature of 25°C.

$T_{1}=94.9^{o}C$
