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

Describe how the boiling point of water on top of a mountain would be different from its boiling point at sea level.
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

At elevated altitudes, any cooking that involves boiling or steaming generally requires compensation for lower temperatures because the boiling point of water is lower at higher altitudes due to the decreased atmospheric pressure.

Consider the following mass distribution where the x- and y-coordinates are given in meters: 5.0 kg at (0.0, 0.0) m, 2.9 kg at (
Sauron [17]

Answer:

x = -1.20 m

y = -1.12 m

Explanation:

as we know that four masses and their position is given as

5.0 kg (0, 0)

2.9 kg (0, 3.2)

4 kg (2.5, 0)

8.3 kg (x, y)

As we know that the formula of center of gravity is given as

x_{cm} = \frac{m_1 x_1 + m_2x_2 + m_3x_3 + m_4x_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

0 = \frac{5(0) + 2.9(0) + 4(2.5) + 8.3 x}{5 + 2.9 + 4 + 8.3}

10 + 8.3 x = 0

x = -1.20 m

Similarly for y direction we have

y_{cm} = \frac{m_1 y_1 + m_2y_2 + m_3y_3 + m_4y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

0 = \frac{5(0) + 2.9(3.2) + 4(0) + 8.3 y}{5 + 2.9 + 4 + 8.3}

9.28 + 8.3 x = 0

x = -1.12 m
