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)

A tortoise and hare start from rest and have a race. As the race begins, both accelerate forward. The hare accelerates uniformly
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this, we start by using one of the equations of motion. The very first one, in fact

1

V = U + at.

V = 0 + 0.8 * 3.4 = 2.72 m/s.

2.

V = 0 + 0.8 * 4.3 = 3.44 m/s.

3.

d = ½ * 0.8 * 4.3² + 3.44 * 12.9

d = 7.396 + 44.376

d = 51.77 m.

4.

d = 62 - 51.77 = 10.23 m. = Distance

traveled during deceleration.

a = (V² - Vo²) / 2d.

a = (0² - 3.44²) / 20.46

a = -11.8336 / 20.46 = -0.58 m/s²

5.

t = (V - Vo)/a =(0 - 3.44) / -0.58

t = -3.44/-.58 = 5.93 s

= Stop time.

T = 4.3 + 12.9 + 5.93 = 23.13 s. = Total

time the hare was moving.

6.

d = Vo * t + ½ * a * t² = 62 m.

0 + 0.5 * (23.13)² * a = 61

267.5a = 61

a = 61/267.5

a = 0.23 m/s²

8. When you see a stopped local bus (1 point)
elena55 [62]

Answer: be alert for pedestrians near the bus.

Explanation: Due to road accidents many Governments around the world has adopted and put in place certain rules and regulations with regards to road safety, this is so to prevent the or reduce the chances of accidents happening.

Road safety rules are rules and guidelines put in place by Government in order to prevent road accidents and maintain a free flow of traffic. An example of such rules is 'be alert for pedestrians near the bus ' when approaching a local bus that is stopped.

At what wavelength would a star radiate the greatest amount of energy if the star has a surface temperature of 60,000 K?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

\lambda=4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m

Explanation:

We have,

The surface temperature of the star is 60,000 K

It is required to find the wavelength of a star that radiated greatest amount of energy. Wein's displacement law gives the relation between wavelength and temperature such that :

\lambda T=2.89\times 10^{-3}

Here,

\lambda = wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{2.89\times 10^{-3}}{60000}\\\\\lambda=4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m

So, the wavelength of the star is 4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m.
