A rocket with mass m traveling with speed v0 along the x axis suddenly shoots out one-third its mass parallel to the y axis (as

seen from an observer at rest) with speed 2v0. Find the x, y, and z components of the final velocity vector of the remaining 2/3 of the rocket's mass.

Answer:

\vec{v}=\frac{3}{2}v_0\hat{i}-v_0\hat{j}+0\hat{k}

Explanation:

Initially the rocket velocity is only on the x-axis. After the rocket suddenly shoots out one-third its mass parallel to the y axis, its velocity is in the x and y axes. Thus, According to momentum conservation principle, we have:

mv_0=\frac{2}{3}mv_{x}\\v_x}=\frac{3}{2}v_0\\\\0=\frac{1}{3}m2v_0+\frac{2}{3}mv_{y}\\v_y=-\frac{2}{3}m(v_0)[\frac{3}{2m}]\\v_y=-v_0\\\\(0)_z=(0)_z\\v_z=0

So, the velocity vector of the remaining rocket's mass is:

\vec{v}=\frac{3}{2}v_0\hat{i}-v_0\hat{j}+0\hat{k}

If it takes 50.0 seconds to lift 10.0 Newtons of books to a height of 7.0
Ilya [14]
Work of the force = 10 N

Time required for the work = 50 sec

Height = 7 m

We are given with the value of work and time in the question.

Substitute the values in the formula of power and then you'll get the power required.

We know that,

w = Work

p = Power

t = Time

By the formula,

Given that,
Work (w) = 7 m = 70 Joules
Time (t) = 50 sec
Substituting their values,

p = 70/50

p = 1.4 watts

Therefore, the power required is 1.4 watts.

Hope it helps!

Sam's job at the amusement park is to slow down and bring to a stop the boats in the log ride. If a boat and its riders have a m
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Sam will do 1152 J of work to stop the boat

Explanation:

Work: This is defined as the product of force and distance, the S.I unit of work is Joules. At any point in science, during calculation Energy and worked can be interchange because they have the same unit.

E = W = 1/2mv²................ Equation 1

Where E = energy, W = work, m = mass, v = velocity.

Given: m = 900 kg, v = 1.6 m/s

Substituting these values into equation 1

W = 1/2(900)(1.6)²

W = 450×2.56

W = 1152 J.

Therefore Sam will do 1152 J of work to stop the boat

horsena [70]

The correct options are:

1 How tall are you?

2How far is it from your house to your school?

3How wide is your refrigerator?

All these measurements involve to measure a length. Instead, the other two options involve to measure different physical quantities; for instance, the question

If an otherwise empty pressure cooker is filled with air of room temperature and then placed on a hot stove, what would be the m
Margaret [11]

Ideal Gas Law is, pV = NkbT

<span>Therefore, p/t  = Nkb/V which is equal to the constant</span>

We need to convert the given temperature to Kelvin. We need to add 273 to have the Kelvin of the temperature from Celsius.

T1= 20 + 273 = 293 K

T2= 120 + 273 = 393 K

With this we have the pressure ration of 393/293.

So,F120 = 1.34 APa
