Incomplete question as we have not told to find what.So the complete question is here

A vessel at rest at the origin of an xy coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of mass m, moves with velocity (-60 m/s)i and a second piece, also of mass m, moves with velocity (-60 m/s)j. The third piece has mass 3m.Just after the explosion, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the velocity of the third piece?

Answer:

V_{3}=(20i+20j)m/s

Explanation:

Given data

The vessel at rest

Piece one,of mass m,moves with velocity=(-60 m/s)i

Piece two,of mass m,moves with velocity=(-60 m/s)j

Piece three,of mass 3m

As the linear momentum is conserved in this system,Because the system is closed and no external  force acting on it

So momentum is given as

p_{initial}=p_{final}

As the vessel at rest so the initial momentum is zero

So

m_{1}V_{1}+m_{2}V_{2}+m_{3}V_{3}=0\\m_{3}V_{3}=-m_{1}V_{1}-m_{2}V_{2}\\V_{3}=\frac{-m_{1}V_{1}-m_{2}V_{2}}{m_{3}} \\V_{3}=\frac{-m_{1}(-60m/s)i-m_{2}(-60m/s)j}{3m}\\V_{3}=(20i+20j)m/s

A ball is thrown straight up. What will
Papessa [141]

Answer:

velocity at the top: 0 m/s

acceleration at the top: -9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Assuming up is positive and down is negative;

The velocity of the ball at the top of its path will be 0 m/s and the acceleration will be negative.

The velocity is 0 m/s because the ball does not move at the top of its path, and it switches from a positive velocity to a negative velocity. It must go through 0 in order to go from positive to negative.

The acceleration, however, is always negative no matter where the ball is in its motion. This negative acceleration causes the ball to slow down as it reaches the top, and speed up as it reaches the bottom.

<u>Think about it:</u> If there wasn't a negative acceleration, and it was instead 0, the ball would never come back down and instead keep going in a straight line.

The driver of a 1000 kg car traveling at a speed of 16.7 m/s applies the brakes. If the brakes provide a force of - 8000 N to st
RSB [31]

Answer:

Given:

m=1000kg

u= 16.7m/s

v=0m/s

F=8000N

Required:

s=?

Solution:

F=m × a

8000N=1000kg × a

a=8m/s^2

Since it decelerate a= -8m/s^2

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

s=v^2 - u^2 / 2a

s= 0 - (16.7m/s)^2 / 2 × -8m/s^2

s= -278.89/-16

s= 17.43m

The car travels approximately 17.43m before it stops
