A vessel at rest at the origin of an xy coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of ma

ss m, moves with velocity (-31 m/s) i and a second piece, also of mass m, moves with velocity (-31 m/s) j. The third piece has mass 3m. Just after the explosion, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (as an angle relative to the +x axis) of the velocity of the third piece?

Answer:

Explanation:

The momentum of the first piece = m v =- m x 31 i kg m/s in - x direction  direction

The momentum of the second piece = -m x 31 j kg m /s in Y - direction

Total momentum = - 31 m( i + j )

To conserve momentum , the third piece must have momentum equal to this

and opposite to it

So momentum of the third piece  = 3m x V = 31 m ( i +j )

V = 31/3 ( i + j ) =

Magnitude of velocity V = √2 x 31/ 3  = 14.6 m / s

Its direction will be towards the vector i + j  ie 45° from x - axis in positive direction

What is the volume of a rock with a density of 3.00 g/cm3 and a mass of 600g?
Mademuasel [1]
The equation of D = m/V

Where D = density
m = mass
and V = volume

We are solving for V, so with the manipulation of variables we multiply V on both sides giving us 
V(D) = m 
now we divide D on both sides giving us
V = m/D 

We know our mass which is 600g and our density is 3.00 g/cm^3
so
V = 600g/3.00g/cm^3 = 200cm^3  or 200mL

a cubic centimeter (cm^3) is one of the units for volume. It's exactly like mL. 1 cm^3 = 1 mL
 
If you wish to change it to L, you'd have to convert.

An object has an acceleration of 6.0 m/s/s. If the net force was doubled and the mass was one-third the original value, then the
alexandr402 [8]

Hahahahaha. Okay.

So basically , force is equal to mass into acceleration.

F=ma

so when F=ma , we get acceleration=6m/s/s

Force is doubled.

Mass is 1/3 times original.

2F=1/3ma

Now , we rearrange , and we get 6F=ma

So , now for 6 times the original force , we get 6 times the initial acceleration.

So new acceleration = 6*6= 36m/s/s
