victus00 [196]

Answer:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is equal and opposite reaction.

While space walking, when the astronaut gets detached from the space ship, she floats in space holding a wrench. In order to get back to the spaceship, she should throw the wrench in the opposite direction of the spaceship. This action would cause a reaction on her own body and she would be pushed away from the wrench and towards the spaceship. Thus, she can return back to the spaceship in this way.

The masses are m1 = m, with initial velocity 2v0, and m2 = 7.4m, with initial velocity v0. Due to the collision, they stick toge

lesya [120]

Answer:

Loss, $\Delta E=-10.63\ J$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of particle 1, $m_1=m =0.66\ kg$

Mass of particle 2, $m_2=7.4m =4.884\ kg$

Speed of particle 1, $v_1=2v_o=2\times 6=12\ m/s$

Speed of particle 2, $v_2=v_o=6\ m/s$

To find,

The magnitude of the loss in kinetic energy after the collision.

Solve,

Two particles stick together in case of inelastic collision. Due to this, some of the kinetic energy gets lost.

Applying the conservation of momentum to find the speed of two particles after the collision.

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V$

$V=\dfrac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{(m_1+m_2)}$

$V=\dfrac{0.66\times 12+4.884\times 6}{(0.66+4.884)}$

V = 6.71 m/s

Initial kinetic energy before the collision,

$K_i=\dfrac{1}{2}(m_1v_1^2+m_2v_2^2)$

$K_i=\dfrac{1}{2}(0.66\times 12^2+4.884\times 6^2)$

$K_i=135.43\ J$

Final kinetic energy after the collision,

$K_f=\dfrac{1}{2}(m_1+m_2)V^2$

$K_f=\dfrac{1}{2}(0.66+4.884)\times 6.71^2$

$K_f=124.80\ J$

Lost in kinetic energy,

$\Delta K=K_f-K_i$

$\Delta K=124.80-135.43$

$\Delta E=-10.63\ J$

Therefore, the magnitude of the loss in kinetic energy after the collision is 10.63 Joules.

9. Captain America is chasing Red Skull. He plans to throw his shield to knock down Red Skull but needs to know how fast Red Sku

Sedaia [141]

Red Skull's relative velocity to Captain America, towards the left front of the

truck is approximately 33.23 m/s in a direction from the North of

approximately 9.18°.

Reasons:

Assumptions;

Taking the north direction as positive.

The activity takes place on the trucks.

The trucks are moving towards each other.

Solution:

Vector form of net speed of Red Skull, is given as follows;

v₁ = -( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ × 3.5)·i + ( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ × 3.5 + 12.5)·j

Vector form of the net speed of Captain America is given as follows;

v₂ = ( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ × 4.0)·i - ( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ × 4.0 + 15)·j

Relative velocity, v₁₂ = v₁ - v₂

∴ v₁₂ = (-( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ × 3.5) - ( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ × 4.0))·i + (( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ × 3.5 + 12.5) + ( $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ × 4.0 + 15))·j

v₁₂ = $-\frac{ 15 \cdot \sqrt{2} }{4}$ ·i + $\frac{ 110 + 15 \cdot \sqrt{2} }{4}$ ·j

Red Skull's velocity relative to Captain America, v₁₂ = $-\frac{ 15 \cdot \sqrt{2} }{4}$ ·i + $\frac{ 110 + 15 \cdot \sqrt{2} }{4}$ ·j

v₁₂ ≈ -5.3·i + 32.8·j

Therefore;

Red Skull appears to be moving West at 5.3 m/s and North at 32.8 m/s

The direction is $arctan \left(\frac{32.8}{-5.3} \right) \approx -80.2^{\circ}$

Therefore;

Red Skull appear to be moving at 90° - 80.2° ≈ 9.18° towards the left front end of the truck moving North

The magnitude of the velocity, |v₁₂|, is given as follows;

$|v_{12}| = \sqrt{\left(-\frac{ 15 \cdot \sqrt{2} }{4}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{ 110 + 15 \cdot \sqrt{2} }{4}\right)^2} = \dfrac{ 5 \cdot \sqrt{130+33 \cdot\sqrt{2} } }{2} \approx 33.23$ ·

The magnitude of Red Skull's velocity relative to Captain America is,

therefore;

|v₁₂| ≈ 33.23 m/s

How are the sun and Earth's moon different?(2 points)

katovenus [111]

Answer: The Sun measures 1.4 million km across, while the Moon is a mere 3,474 km across. In other words, the Sun is roughly 400 times larger than the Moon. But the Sun also happens to be 400 times further away than the Moon, and this has created an amazing coincidence.
