To solve this problem we will use the basic concept given by the Volume of a sphere with which the atom approaches. The fraction in percentage terms would be given by the division of the total volume of the nucleus by that of the volume of the atom, that is,

$\% Percent = \frac{V_{nucleus}}{V_{atom}}*100$

$\% Percent = \frac{4/3 \pi (d_{nucleus}/2)^3}{4/3 \pi (d_{atom}/2)^3}*100$

$\% Percent = \frac{(d_{nucleus}/2)^3}{ (d_{atom}/2)^3}*100$

$\% Percent =\frac{(1.0*10^{-14}/2)^3}{ (1.1*10^{-10}/2)^3}*100$

$\% Percent = 7.51*10^{-13}*100$

$\% Percent = 7.51*10^{-11}\%$

Therefore the percent of the atom's volume is occupied by mass is $7.51*10^{-11}\%$

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by

Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

now here we can say

$m_1 = 10 g$

$v_{1i} = 0$

$m_2 = 550 g$

$v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s$

now here we can say

$10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}$

$192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}$

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})$

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5$

now by solving the two equation

$56v_{2f} = 189$

$v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s$

also we know that

$v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s$

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s

A monkey running through the jungle goes 0.198 km straight to the East, then turns 15.8° deflection from straight East toward th

inn [45]

Answer:

$|\vec r|=339.82\ m$

$\theta=-6.67^o$

Explanation:

<u>Displacement </u>

It's a vector magnitude that measures the space traveled by a particle between an initial and a final position. The total displacement can be obtained by adding the vectors of each individual displacement. In the case of two displacements:

$\vec r=\vec r_1+\vec r_2$

Given a vector as its polar coordinates (r,\theta), the corresponding rectangular coordinates are computed with

$x=rcos\theta$

$y=rsin\theta$

And the vector is expressed as

$\vec z==$

The monkey first makes a displacement given by (0.198 km,0°). The angle is 0 because it goes to the East, the zero-reference for angles. Thus the first displacement is

$\vec r_1==\ km=\ m$

The second move is (145 m , -15.8°). The angle is negative because it points South of East. The second displacement is

$\vec r_2==\ m$

The total displacement is

$\vec r=\ m+\ m$

$\vec r=\ m$

In (magnitude,angle) form:

$|\vec r|=\sqrt{337.52^2+(-39.48)^2}=339.82\ m$

$\boxed{|\vec r|=339.82\ m}$

$\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{-39.48}{337.52}=-0.1169$

$\boxed{\theta=-6.67^o}$
