An object with total mass mtotal = 16.2 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into three pieces. One piece with mass m1 = 4.7 k

g moves up and to the left at an angle of θ1 = 23° above the –x axis with a speed of v1 = 25.4 m/s. A second piece with mass m2 = 5.2 kg moves down and to the right an angle of θ2 = 28° to the right of the -y axis at a speed of v2 = 23.8 m/s.
1) What is the magnitude of the final momentum of the system (all three pieces)?
kg-m/s
2) What is the mass of the third piece?
3) What is the x-component of the velocity of the third piece?
4) What is the y-component of the velocity of the third piece?
5) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the center of mass of the pieces after the collision?
6) Calculate the increase in kinetic energy of the pieces during the explosion.

An object with total mass mtotal = 16.2 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into three pieces. One piece with mass m1 = 4.7 kg moves up and to the left at an angle of θ1 = 23° above the –x axis with a speed of v1 = 25.4 m/s. A second piece with mass m2 = 5.2 kg moves down and to the right an angle of θ2 = 28° to the right of the -y axis at a speed of v2 = 23.8 m/s.

2) What is the mass of the third piece?

3) What is the x-component of the velocity of the third piece?

4) What is the y-component of the velocity of the third piece?

5) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the center of mass of the pieces after the collision?

6) Calculate the increase in kinetic energy of the pieces during the explosion

Explanation:

Since explosions and collisions follow the law of conservation of Momentum.

1) Magnitude of the final momentum of the system = Magnitude of the initial momentum of the system

Since the body was initially at rest,

Magnitude of the initial momentum of the system = 0 kgm/s

Hence, Magnitude of the final momentum of the system is also equal to 0 kgm/s.

2) mass of the third piece

Sum of all the masses = 16.2 kg

4.7 + 5.2 + c = 16.2

c = 6.3 kg

3) doing an x-component balance on momentum

(4.7)×(-25.4 cos 23) + (5.2)×(23.8 cos 28) + (6.3)(v) = 0

-0.6163 + 6.3v = 0

v = -0.0978 m/s

Hope this Helps!!!

A man weighing 700 NN and a woman weighing 440 NN have the same momentum. What is the ratio of the man's kinetic energy KmKmK_m
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The ratio of the man's kinetic energy to that of the woman's kinetic energy is 0.629.

Explanation:

Given;

weight of the man, W = 700 N

Weight of the woman, W = 440 N

momentum is given by;

P = mv\\\\v = \frac{P}{m}

Kinetic energy of the man;

K_m = \frac{1}{2}m_m(\frac{P_m}{m_m})^2  \\\\K_m = \frac{P_m^2}{2m_m}

Momentum of the man is calculated as;

P_m^2 = 2m_mK_m

The kinetic energy of the woman is given by;

K_w = \frac{P_w^2}{2m_w}

The momentum of the woman is given;

P_w^2 = 2m_wK_w

Since, momentum of the man = momentum of the woman

P_m^2 = P_w^2

2m_mK_m = 2m_wK_w\\\\\frac{K_m}{K_w} = \frac{2m_w}{2m_m}\\\\\frac{K_m}{K_w} = \frac{m_w}{m_m}

mass of the mas = 700 / 9.8 = 71.429

mass of the woman is = 440 / 9.8 = 44.898

\frac{K_m}{K_w} = \frac{44.898}{71.429}\\\\\frac{K_m}{K_w} =0.629

Therefore, the ratio of the man's kinetic energy to that of the woman's kinetic energy is 0.629.
