Answer:

Part a)

$v = -(8.33\hat j + 9.33\hat i)\times 10^6 m/s$

Part b)

$E = 4.4 \times 10^{-13} J$

Explanation:

As per momentum conservation we know that there is no external force on this system so initial and final momentum must be same

So we will have

$m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 + m_3v_3 = 0$

$(5 \times 10^{-27})(6 \times 10^6\hat j) + (8.4 \times 10^{-27})(4 \times 10^6\hat i) + (3.6 \times 10^{-27}) v = 0$

$(30\hat j + 33.6\hat i)\times 10^6 + 3.6 v = 0$

$v = -(8.33\hat j + 9.33\hat i)\times 10^6 m/s$

Part b)

By equation of kinetic energy we have

$E = \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_3v_3^2$

$E = \frac{1}{2}(5 \times 10^{-27})(6\times 10^6)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(8.4 \times 10^{-27})(4 \times 10^6)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(3.6 \times 10^{-27})(8.33^2 + 9.33^2) \times 10^{12}$

$E = 9\times 10^{-14} + 6.72 \times 10^{-14} + 2.82\times 10^{-13}$

$E = 4.4 \times 10^{-13} J$

maxonik [38]

' W ' is the symbol for 'Watt' ... the unit of power equal to 1 joule/second.

That's all the physics we need to know to answer this question.
The rest is just arithmetic.

(60 joules/sec) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (3600 sec/hour)

= (60 · 30 · 8 · 3600) (joule · day · hour · sec) / (sec · day · hour)

= 51,840,000 joules

Wait a minute ! Hold up ! Hee haw ! Whoa !
Excuse me. That will never do.
I see they want the answer in units of kilowatt-hours (kWh).
In that case, it's

(60 watts) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (1 kW/1,000 watts)

= (60 · 30 · 8 · 1 / 1,000) (watt · day · hour · kW / day · watt)

= 14.4 kW·hour

Rounded to the nearest whole number:

14 kWh
