A 40.0-$kg$ body is moving in the direction of the positive x axis with a speed of 238 $m/s$ when, owing to an internal explosio

n, it breaks into three pieces. One part, whose mass is 7.0 $kg$, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 356 $m/s$ along the positive y axis. A second fragment, whose mass is 4.5 $kg$, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 357 $m/s$ along the negative x axis. What is the speed of the third fragment

Answer:

v_3 = 400\ m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of the body = 40 Kg

speed in x-axis = 238 m/s

mass break into three part

m₁ = 7 kg

v₁ = 356 m/s (along the positive y axis)

m₂ = 4.5 kg

v₂ = 357 m/s(along the negative x axis)

m₃ = 40 - (7 + 4.5) = 28.5 Kg

v₃ = ?

using conservation of momentum

MV = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ + m₃v₃

(40)(238) \hat{i} = (7)(356) \hat{j} - (4.5)(357) \hat {i} + 28.5 v_3

(9520) \hat{i} = 2492 \hat{j} - 1606.5\hat {i} + 28.5 v_3

11126.5 \hat{i} - 2492 \hat{j} = 28.5 v_3

v_3 =390.40 \hat{i} - 87.44 \hat{j}

v_3 = \sqrt{390.40^2 + 87.44^2}

v_3 = 400\ m/s

What is a warming sign that suggest a weight loss plan is a fad diet rather than a healthy weight loss plan?
Serga [27]

Answer:

Warming signs before fad diet includes:

1. When a special type of diet is recommended for weight loss.

2. When quick weight loss is promised instead of advice on the need to exercise, eat healthy foods including fruits and vegetables, and adopt a good feeding behavior.

3. Promises rapid weight loss in a short period of time.

After taking the fad diet the following might be experienced:

1. Constipation.

2. Weakness and fatigue.

3. More accumulation of fats in the body in the long run after a short term normal  BMI (Body mass index).

4. Lower metabolic rates over time.

Explanation:

weight loss is a practice adopted by people for various reasons ranging from the desire to stay healthy to, ability to pursue a career that requires a good Body Mass Index. For instance, A BMI (Body mass index) which is equal to a person's weight (kg) / (height(m))^2 of 30 and higher is considered obese.

Fad diet which may give a temporary result of weight loss is not considered totally healthy as it doesn't capture the need to eat a healthy balanced diet instead focuses on more routine consumption of a particular kind of diet.

A healthy weight loss plan captures the need to exercise, reduce body fats while eating healthy. Eating fruits, vegetables are also encouraged.

The suspension cable of a 1,000 kg elevator snaps, sending the elevator moving downward through its shaft. The emergency brakes
tester [92]

Answer:

option (E) 1,000,000 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the suspension cable, m = 1,000 kg

Distance, h = 100 m

Now,

from the work energy theorem

Work done by the gravity = Work done by brake

or

mgh = Work done by brake

where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 10 m/s²

or

Work done by brake  = 1000 × 10 × 100

or

Work done by brake = 1,000,000 J

this work done is the release of heat in the brakes

Hence, the correct answer is option (E) 1,000,000 J

A toy rocket launcher can project a toy rocket at a speed as high as 35.0 m/s.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

(a) 62.5 m

(b) 7.14 s

Explanation:

initial speed, u = 35 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s^2

(a) Let the rocket raises upto height h and at maximum height the speed is zero.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

0^{2}=35^{2}- 2 \times 9.8 \times h

h = 62.5 m

Thus, the rocket goes upto a height of 62.5 m.

(b) Let the rocket takes time t to reach to maximum height.

By use of first equation of motion

v = u + at

0 = 35 - 9.8 t

t = 3.57 s

The total time spent by the rocket in air = 2 t = 2 x 3.57 = 7.14 second.
