A firecracker breaks up into two pieces , one has a mass of 200 g and files off along the x –axis with a speed of 82.0 m/s and t

he second has a mass of 300 g and flies off along the y-axis with a speed of 45.0 m/s . What is the total momentum of the two pieces ?
a) 361 kg x m/s at 56.3 degrees from the x-axis .
b) 93.5 kg x m/s at 28.8 degrees from the x-axis .

Answer:

A) 21.2 kg.m/s at 39.5 degrees from the x-axis

Explanation:

Mass of the smaller piece = 200g = 200/1000 = 0.2 kg

Mass of the bigger piece = 300g = 300/1000 = 0.3 kg

Velocity of the small piece = 82 m/s

Velocity of the bigger piece = 45 m/s

Final momentum of smaller piece = 0.2 × 82 = 16.4 kg.m/s

Final momentum of bigger piece = 0.3 × 45 = 13.5 kg.m/s

since they acted at 90oc to each other (x and y axis) and also momentum is vector quantity; then we can use Pythagoras theorems

Resultant momentum² = 16.4² + 13.5² = 451.21

Resultant momentum = √451.21 = 21.2 kg.m/s at angle 39.5 degrees to the x-axis  ( tan^-1 (13.5 / 16.4)

Charge: A piece of plastic has a net charge of +2.00 μC. How many more protons than electrons does this piece of plastic have? (
snow_lady [41]

Answer

given,

net charge = +2.00 μC

we know,

1 coulomb charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸electrons

1 micro coulomb  charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸ x 10⁻⁶ electron

                                         = 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

2.00 μC = 2 x 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

              = 1.256 x 10¹³ electrons

since net charge is positive.

The number of protons should be 1.256 x 10¹³ more than electrons.

hence, +2.00 μC have 1.256 x 10¹³ more protons than electrons.

I need to Swap the convergent lens to a menisc Congergent one And make a graph like the attached photo
weeeeeb [17]

A convergent meniscus lens is a lens that is composed of two spherical surfaces, like the on shown next:

The imaginary line that runs through the middle of the lens is the "symmetry axis".

In this type of lenses incident parallel beams of light converge in one point, as follows:

And thus we get the diagram.

A radio-controlled car increases its kinetic energy from 4 j to 12 j over a distance of 2 m. what was the average net force on t
just olya [345]
The answer to this is easy once you look at the units for Joules. 1 Joule = 1 N.m (Newton.meter). The 'Newton' is the units of force that we are trying to find, and we know the meters is 2, from the question. So you have an 8Joule or 8N.m energy difference over 2 meters.

well if we know the meters, then the real question is written as:
8N.m = ?N x 2m
so just solve for N;
N = 8N.m / 2m = 4
So F = 4N

How does the heat enhance <br>the rate of chemical reaction ? Explain in short.​
densk [106]
When the reactants are heated, the average kinetic energy of the molecules increases. This means that more molecules are moving faster and hitting each other with more energy. If more molecules hit each other with enough energy to react, then the rate of the reaction increases.
