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)

Valentin [98]

Answer:

0.2448 point²

Explanation:

1 gry = 1/10 line

1 line = 1/12 inch

=> 1 gry in inches = 1/10 * 1/12 = 1/120 inch

=> 1 inch = 120 gry

1 point = 1/72 inch

=> 1 inch = 72 points

Therefore,

120 gry = 72 points

=> 1 gry = 3/5 point

Therefore,

1 gry² = (3/5)² point²

1 gry² = 9/25 point²

This means that 0.68 gry² will be:

0.68 gry² = 0.68 * 9/25 point²

=> 0.68 gry² = 0.2448 point²
