A vessel at rest at the origin of an xy coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of ma

ss m, moves with velocity (-29 m/s) and a second piece, also of mass m, moves with velocity (-29 m/s) . The third piece has mass 3m. Just after the explosion, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (as an angle relative to the +x axis) of the velocity of the third piece?

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

m_1=m_2=m

v_1=-29 im/s

v_2=-29 jm/s

m_3=3m

a.Initial velocity of vessel,u=0

According to law of conservation of momentum

Mu=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+m_3v_3

Where M=Mass of  vessel

0=m(-29i)+m(-29j)+3mv_3

29im+29jm=3mv_3

v_3=29i+29jm/s

Magnitude,\mid v_3\mid=\sqrt{(29)^2+(29)^2}=29\sqrt 2m/s

b.\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{29}{29})=45^{\circ}

Hence, direction of the velocity of third piece=45 degree

Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. A. Ella said "a lot of energy in the hot water has disappeared." Explain why her stateme
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of energy states that; energy can neither be created nor destroyed but is converted from one form to another.

In view of this principle, Ella can not be correct when she says that a lot of energy has disappeared. The use of the term "disappeared" connotes the idea that the energy no longer exists which does not happen.

Hence, energy can not "disappear" from hot water rather the energy in the water may be transferred to the surroundings.

Which of the following processes are Exothermic? I. Melting II. Sublimation III. Vaporization IV. Condensation
mariarad [96]

Answer: condensation process is exothermic. The correct option is IV.

Explanation: Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which heat is released to the surrounding environment.

condensation is defined as a process by which a medium changes from gaseous phase into liquid phase. Using water molecules to illustrate, to transform water molecules to gaseous phase it requires the heat of vaporization to be overcomed. This same hear of vaporization needs to be given off when changing back to liquid phase.

A billiard ball moving at 0.5 m/s strikes another identical billiard ball, which is at rest, in an elastic head-on collision on
NikAS [45]

Answer: assuming that the billiard balls are of identical weight the impacted billiard ball will move forward at around 0.5m/s (not considering energy conservation). The ball impacting the 2nd one would stop because most of its Kinetic energy would have been transferred into the not moving ball.

Explanation: hope this helps!
