An object of mass 4 kg is initially at rest on a frictionless ice rink. It suddenly explodes into three pieces (I have no idea w

hy it happened!). One chunk of mass 1 kg slides across the ice with a velocity 1.2 ms^-1i and another chunk of mass 2kg slides across the ice with a velocity 0.8 m.s^-1j. Determine the velocity of the third chunk in magnitude angle form.

We have two events that occurred on different axes, the most convenient is to perform the operations on the two axes, and then look for the resulting force.

Our values are,

m_1=1kg\\m_2 = 2kg\\v_1' = 1.2m/s\\v_1''= 0.8m/s

PAR A) For the X axis, we apply momentum conservation, which is given by,

Total momentum before = Total momentum After

We start from rest, so in X the initial speeds are 0,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v_1'+m_2v_2'

0+0 = (1*1.2)+(1)v_2'

V_2' = -1.2m/s

Now we apply for the conservation of the moment, it is part of the rest, so,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v_1''+m_2v_2''

0+0=2*0.8+1*v_2''

v_2'' = -1.6

To find the total speed, we simply apply pitagoras,

V = \sqrt{v_2'^2+v_2^2''}

V = \sqrt{1.2^2+1.6^2}

V = 2m/s

PART B) The address is given by,

tan\theta = \frac{V_2''}{V_2'}

\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{V_2''}{V_2'}

\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{1.6}{1.2}

\theta = 53.31\° (Below -x axis)

Hoochie [10]
This is an example of inertia - the body keeps it's energy because there is no force applied to it. When we try to stop it's motion, it resists. A man is not rigidly attached to the bus, so he keeps moving forward, at least until he hits the front window from inside. Answer is D.

What are the chances that radio transmissions from Earth or messages sent on distant space probes will ever be received by livin
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

<u>Very low</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is fair to say to a reasonable extent that there are very low chances that radio transmissions from Earth or messages sent on distant space probes will ever be received by living beings .

Bear in mind that for years some scientists have believed without any substantial evidence that there are other living beings in distant space.

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

smallest magnitud is P=33.3 N

Explanation:

We are analyze the situation as an external force is applied and there is a friction force. We have a problem with Newton's second law.

          F = ma

As the two blocks go together they must have the same acceleration, so we can calculate this for the entire system

        P = (m1 + m2) a

        a = P / (m1 + m2)

In this case there is no friction force because the small block does not touch the ground.

In order to calculate the friction force, we must analyze each system component separately.

The large block on the X axis has an applied P force and as it moves feels a force from the small block.  In the Y axis has the weight (W1) and the reaction to normal (N1)

For the small block on the X axis, the force it feels is the thrust of the large block, note that this is an action and reaction force between the two blocks, it is the same definition we have of the normal one, so we can call this force (N)

Y axis it has the weight (W2) down, the force of friction (fr) that opposes the movement, so it is directed upwards. we write these equations

       N = m2 a

       fr -W2 = 0    

       fr = W2

       

The definition of friction force is

       fr = μ N

       

Let's replace and calculate

       μ (m2 a) = m2 g

       μ (P / (m1 + m2)) = g

       P = g /μ  (m1 + m2)

Let's calculate the value of this force

       P = 9.8 / 0.710 (28.9 +4.4)

       P = 13.80 (33.3)

       P = 33.3 N

This is the minimum friction force that prevents the block from sliding down
