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.

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!!!

What can always be said about a negatively-charged ion?
KiRa [710]

Answer: A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Explanation:

First, we know that the elementary negative charge is the electron, while the positive one is the proton. Such that both have the same charge in magnitude, but a different sign. Such that if we have the same number of electrons and protons in an atom, the charge of this atom will be neutral.

And an ion is an atom with a different number of electrons and protons, so the charge of the atom is not neutral.

Then if we have a negatively-charged ion, the charge of this atom is negative. Then we must have a larger number of electrons (the negative ones) than protons (the positive ones)

Then the correct option is:

A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

A chef places an open sack of flour on a kitchen scale. The scale reading of
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial reading on scale =40 N

So, we can conclude that weight of the sack is 40 N

After this a 10 N force is applied upward on the sack such that the net force becomes (40-10) N downward (because downward force is more)

This net downward force is the resultant of earth graviational pull and the applied upward force.

So, this downward force acts on the machine which inturn applies an upaward force of same magnitude called Normal reaction.

This situation can be diagramatically represented by figure given below

What is the kinetic energy of a 1.40 kg discus with a speed of 22.5 m/s?
Oksana_A [137]
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                         = (1/2) (1.4 kg) (22.5 m/s)²

                         =    (0.7 kg)  (506.25 m²/s² )

                         =          354.375  kg-m²/s²  =  354.375 joules .

This is just the kinetic energy associated with a 1.4-kg glob of
mass sailing through space at 22.5 m/s.  In the case of a frisbee,
it's also spinning, and there's some additional kinetic energy stored
in the spin.

Vector vector a has a magnitude of 29 units and points in the positive y-direction. when vector vector b is added to vector a ,
Nutka1998 [239]
Good morning.

We have:

\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a} = 29\overset{\to}{j}}

Where j is the unitary vector in the direction of the y-axis.

We have that 

\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a}+\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j}}

We add the vector -a to both sides:

\mathsf{\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -\overset{\to}{a} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -29\overset{\to}{j}}\\ \\ \mathsf{\overset{\to}{b}=-47\overset{\to}{j}}


Therefore, the magnitude of b is 47 units.

Explain the difference between the synodic period of a planet and the sidereal period. why is the synodic period often much less
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
-Synodic period is the period of celestial bodies observed on the moving planet(mostly earth)
Sideral period is the period comparing to the fixed stars without motion of the earth involved.

(I will explain the second question with an example, so it's easier to understand)
-For Sideral month for example of the moon it cactually complete one revolution in around 27.3 days.
However, since the earth moves, for us it took some more time to see the moon the same as before (fullmoon to fullmoon) again. That make synodic month of the moon to be around 29.5 days.
