A gadget of mass 21.85 kg floats in space without motion. Because of some internal malfunction, the gadget violently breaks up i

nto 3 fragments flying away from each other. The first fragment has mass m1 = 6.42 kg and speed v1 = 6.8 m/s while the second fragment has mass m2 = 8.26 kg and speed v2 = 3.54 m/s. The angle between the velocity vectors ~v1 and ~v2 is θ12 = 64 ◦ . What is the speed v3 of the third fragment? Answer in units of m/s.

Answer:

v_3=8.622\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the gadget, m=21.85\ kg
  • mass of fragment 1, m_1=6.42\ kg
  • mass of fragment 2, m_2=8.26\ kg
  • velocity of fragment 1, v_1=6.8\ m.s^{-1}
  • velocity of fragment 2, v_2=3.54\ m.s^{-1}
  • angle between the velocity 1 & 2, \theta=64\ ^{\circ}

<u>Now the mass of the third part:</u>

m_3=m-(m_1+m_2)

m_3=21.85-(6.42+8.26)

m_3=7.17\ kg

<u>The momentum of the gadget before and after collision is equal:</u>

m_3.v_3=m_1.v_1\cos\ \frac{\theta}{2} +m_2.v_2\cos \frac{\theta}{2}

7.17\times v_3=(6.42\times6.8+8.26\times3.54)\times \cos \frac{64}{2}

v_3=8.622\ m.s^{-1}

Refer schematic for more clarity.

A 5kg block is pulled across a table by a horizontal force of 40 N with a frictional force of 8 N opposing the motion. Draw a fo
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Net force on the block is 32 N.

Acceleration of the object is 6.4 m/s².

Explanation:

Let the acceleration of the object be a m/s².

Given:

Mass of the block is, m=5\ kg

Force of pull is, F=40\ N

Frictional force on the block is, f=8\ N

The free body diagram of the object is shown below.

From the figure, the net force in the forward direction is given as:

F_{net}=F-f=40-8=32\ N

Now, from Newton's second law of motion, net force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration. So,

F_{net}=ma\\32=5a\\a=\frac{32}{5}=6.4\ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of the object in the forward direction is 6.4 m/s².

Which material will displace a volume of water? Which material will displace a volume of water less than its own volume? Which m
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

1. all of them

2. cork and wax

3. iron, lead, and aluminum

4. none of them

Explanation:

1.Which material will displace a volume of water?  all of them

When an object is introduced into a container with a volume of water, a volume of liquid equal to the volume of the object is displaced

2.Which material will displace a volume of water less than its own volume?

cork and wax

because  the density of the object is less than that of the displaced liquid

3.Which material will displace a volume of water equal to its own volume?

iron, lead, and aluminum

because  Arquimedes's principle: any body plunged inside a fluid in this case water experiences an ascending force called push, equivalent to the weight of the fluid removed by the body

4.Which material will displace a volume of water greater than its own volume?

None of them
