A firecracker in a coconut blows the coconut into three pieces. Two pieces of equal mass fly off south and west, perpendicular t
o each other, at 25 m/s . The third piece has twice the mass as the other two. What is the speed of the third piece?
1 answer:
Answer:
v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s
Explanation:
Given that
m₁=m₂ = m
m₃ = 2 m
Given that speed of the two pieces
u₁=- 25 j m/s
u₂ =- 25 i m/s
Lets take the speed of the third mass = v m/s
From linear momentum conservation
Pi= Pf
0 = m₁u₁+m₂u₂ + m₃ v
0 = -25 j m - 25 i m + 2 m v
2 v=25 j + 25 i m/s
v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s
Therefore the speed of the third mass will be v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s

Explanation: This question involves the concept of Latent Heat and specific heat capacities of water in solid phase.
<em>Latent heat </em><em>of fusion </em>is the total amount of heat rejected from the unit mass of water at 0 degree Celsius to convert completely into ice of 0 degree Celsius (and the heat required for vice-versa process).
<em>Specific heat capacity</em> of a substance is the amount of heat required by the unit mass of a substance to raise its temperature by 1 kelvin.
Here, <u>given that</u>:
- mass of ice, m= 0.555 kg
- temperature of ice, T= -16.6°C
- rate of heat transfer,
- specific heat of ice,
- latent heat of fusion of ice,
<u>Asked:</u>
1. Time require for the ice to start melting.
2. Time required to raise the temperature above freezing point.
Sol.: 1.
<u>We have the formula:</u>
Using above equation we find the total heat required to bring the ice from -16.6°C to 0°C.
Now, we require 19347.3 joules of heat to bring the ice to 0°C and then on further addition of heat it starts melting.
∴The time required before the ice starts to melt is the time required to bring the ice to 0°C.
= 23.59 minutes.
Sol.: 2.
Next we need to find the time it takes before the temperature rises above freezing from the time when heating begins.
<em>Now comes the concept of Latent heat into the play, the temperature does not starts rising for the ice as soon as it reaches at 0°C it takes significant amount of time to raise the temperature because the heat energy is being used to convert the phase of the water molecules from solid to liquid.</em>
From the above solution we have concluded that 23.59 minutes is required for the given ice to come to 0°C, now we need some extra amount of energy to convert this ice to liquid water of 0°C.
<u>We have the equation:</u> latent heat,
<u>Now the time required for supply of 185370 J:</u>
t= 226.06 minutes
∴ The time it takes before the temperature rises above freezing from the time when heating begins= 226.06 + 23.59
= 249.65 minutes
Answer and method on photo
The radius of the cylinder is equal to half the diameter:
The volume of the cylinder is given by:
where h is the heigth of the cylinder. Converting into meters,
And the density of the material will be given by the ratio between the mass and the volume:
Answer:
Fnet = F√2
Fnet = kq²/r² √2
Explanation:
A exerts a force F on B, and C exerts an equal force F on B perpendicular to that. The net force can be found with Pythagorean theorem:
Fnet = √(F² + F²)
Fnet = F√2
The force between two charges particles is:
F = k q₁ q₂ / r²
where
k is Coulomb's constant, q₁ and q₂ are the charges, and r is the distance between the charges.
If we say the charge of each particle is q, then:
F = kq²/r²
Substituting:
Fnet = kq²/r² √2
