An object of mass, m1 with a velocity, v1 collides with another object at rest (v2 = 0) with a mass, m2. After the collision, m1

travels up north while m2 travels at a downward angle of θ caused by the collision. In this perfectly elastic collision, find: a) v1'
b) v2'
c) θ

Answer:

v"_{1} = v_{1} tanΘ

v^{"} _{2} = \frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cos}Θ

Θ = tan^{-1}(\frac{v^{"} _{1} }{v_{1} } )

Explanation:

Applying the law of conservation of momentum, we have:

Δp_{x = 0}

p_{x} = p"_{x}

m_{1}v_{1} = m_{2}v"_{2} cosΘ (Equation 1)

Δp_{y} = 0

p_{y} = p"_{y}

0 = m_{1} v"_{1} - m_{2} v"_{2} sinΘ (Equation 2)

From Equation 1:

v"_{2} = \frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cos}Θ

From Equation 2:

m_{2} v"_{2}sinΘ = m_{1} v_{1}

v"_{1} = \frac{m_{2} v"_{2}sinΘ}{m_{1} }

Replacing Equation 3 in Equation 4:

v"_{1}=\frac{m_{2}\frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cosΘ}sinΘ}{m_{1}}

v"_{1}=v_{1}\frac{sinΘ}{cosΘ}

v"_{1}=v_{1}tanΘ (Equation 5)

And we found Θ from the Equation 5:

tanΘ=\frac{v"_{1}}{v_{1}}

Θ=tan^{-1}(\frac{v"_{1}}{v_{1}})

How many neutrons does element X have if it’s atomic number is 28 and it’s mass number is 81?
labwork [276]

Well let’s put it this way. To find the neutrons you subtract the atomic atomic Nuremberg from the atomic mass. So

Mass=81-Number=28

81-28=53

Final answer is 53.

A model rocket blasts off from the ground, rising straight upward with a constant acceleration that has a magnitude of 86.0 m/s2
Harman [31]
<span>When the fuel  of the rocket is consumed, the acceleration would be zero. However, at this phase the rocket would still be going up until all the forces of gravity would dominate and change the direction of the rocket. We need to calculate two distances, one from the ground until the point where the fuel is consumed and from that point to the point where the gravity would change the direction. 

Given:
a = 86 m/s^2 
t = 1.7 s

Solution:

d = vi (t) + 0.5 (a) (t^2) 
d = (0) (1.7) + 0.5 (86) (1.7)^2 
d = 124.27 m 

vf = vi + at 
vf = 0 + 86 (1.7) 
vf = 146.2 m/s (velocity when the fuel is consumed completely) 

Then, we calculate the time it takes until it reaches the maximum height.
vf = vi + at 
0 = 146.2 + (-9.8) (t) 
t = 14.92 s

Then, the second distance
d= vi (t) + 0.5 (a) (t^2) 
d = 146.2 (14.92) + 0.5 (-9.8) (14.92^2) 
d = 1090.53  m

Then, we determine the maximum altitude:
 d1 + d2 = 124.27 m + 1090.53 m = 1214.8 m</span>
