An object with kinetic energy k explodes into two pieces, each of which moves with twice the speed of the original object.

Physics

zlopas [31]3 years ago

<span>Assuming that the momenta of the two pieces are equal: when they have equal velocities, then the masses of the two pieces are also equal. Since there is no force from outside of the system, the center of mass moves on with the same velocity as before the equation. So the two pieces must fly at the side side of the mass center, i.e., they must always be at 90° to the side of the mass center. Otherwise it would not be the mass center, respectively the pieces would not have equal velocities. This is only possible, when the angle of their velocity with the initial direction is 60°. Because, cos (60°) = 1/2 = v/(2v).</span>

And I need help with seven and eight only I will appreciate it
Mumz [18]

Answer:

7] Force = mass × acceleration

Force = 2 × 5

<u>Force = 10 N</u>

<u></u>

8] Velocity = acceleration due to gravity × time taken

Velocity = 9.8 × 12

<u>Velocity = 117.6 m/s</u>

A 350-g baseball is shot out of a small cannon with a velocity of 9.0 m/s. The baseball flies horizontally at a constant height
stira [4]

Answer:

9.5 kg m^2/s

Explanation:

The angular momentum of an object is given by:

L=mvr

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

r is the distance of the object from axis of rotation

Here we have:

m = 350 g = 0.35 kg is the mass of the ball

v = 9.0 m/s is the velocity

r = 3.0 m is the distance of the object from axis of rotation (if we take the ground as the centre of rotation)

Therefore, the angular momentum is:

L=(0.35)(9.0)(3.0)=9.5 kg m^2/s
