Jack (mass 52.0 kg ) is sliding due east with speed 8.00 m/s on the surface of a frozen pond. he collides with jill (mass 49.0 k

g ), who is initially at rest. after the collision, jack is traveling at 5.00 m/s in a direction 34.0∘ north of east. ignore friction. part a what is the direction of the jill's velocity after the collision?

We must write down laws of conservation of momenta and energy. 
For the law of conservation of momenta will we will use two axes. One will be x-axis that will correspond to the east, and the other one will be y-axis corresponding to the north. Jack will be marked as 1 and Jill will be marked as 2.
Law of conservation of energy:
\frac{m_1v_1^2}{2}=\frac{m_1v'_1^2}{2}+ \frac{m_2v_2^2}{2}\\
m_2v_2^2=m_1v_1^2-m_1v_1'^2\\
v_2=\sqrt{\frac{m_1v_1^2-m_1v_1'^2}{m_2}
This will give us Jill's velocity after the colision.
v_2=6.43\frac{m}{s}
Law of conservation of momenta:
x: m_1v_1=m_1v_1'cos(34)+m_2v_2cos(\theta)\\
y: 0=m_1v_1'sin(34)-m_2v_2sin(\theta)\\
We will use the second equation to get the angle at which the Jill is traveling:
0=m_1v_1'sin(34)-m_2v_2sin(\theta)\\
m_2v_2sin(\theta)=m_1v_1'sin(34)\\
sin(\theta)=\frac{m_1v_1'sin(34)}{m_2v_2}\\
\theta=sin^{-1}(\frac{m_1v_1'sin(34)}{m_2v_2})
When we plug all the number we get:
\theta=27.45^\circ
Please note that this is the angle below the x-axis.

According to Kepler's third law (p2 = a3), how does a planet's mass affect its orbit around the Sun? Group of answer choices
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

A planet's mass has no effect on its orbit around the Sun.

Explanation:

The kepler's third law tells us:

p^2=a^3

where p is the orbit period and a is the semi-major axis.

As we can see from the equation, the period depends only on the measure of the semi-major axis a of the orbit, that is, how far a planet is from the sun.

The equation tells us that the closer a planet is to the sun, the faster it will go around it.

The mass does not appear in the equation to calculate the period.

This is why it is concluded from the third law of Kepler that<u> the period, or the orbit of a planet around the sun, does not depend on its mass.</u>

the answer i: A planet's mass has no effect on its orbit around the Sun.

a person hears an echo from the top of a tower , 2.2 second after the sound is produced.how far away is the tower from the perso
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

730.4 m

Explanation:

The sound waves travels with a uniform motion (=constant velocity), therefore we can calculate the distance it travels using the formula:

d=vt

where

d is the distance

v is the speed of the sound wave

t is the time taken

In this problem we have:

v = 332 m/s is the speed of sound in air

t = 2.2 s is the time elapsed

Therefore, the distance between the tower and the person is

d=(332)(2.2)=730.4 m

A member of the marching band tunes their trombone inside their school. When they walk out to the field the instrument goes out
Alona [7]

The best explanation is the <em>difference</em> between the inside <em>temperature</em> and the outside temperature.

If the player doesn't change his emboucher (muscles and position of his lips), then the pitch produced by the instrument depends only on the physical dimensions of its plumbing, and the speed of sound in the tube.

BOTH of those things change slightly when the temperature changes.
