A 3.35 kg object initially moving in the positive x direction with a velocity of 4.90 m s collides with and sticks to a 1.88 kg

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The final components of velocity of the composite object is 3.33 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first object, m₁ = 3.35 kg

initial velocity of the first object, u₁ = 4.90 m/s in positive x-direction

mass of the second object, m₂ = 1.88 kg

initial velocity of the second object, u₂ = 3.12 m/s in negative y-direction

initial momentum of the first object, P₁ = 3.35 x 4.9 = 16.415 kgm/s

initial momentum of the second object, P₂ = 1.88 x 3.12 = 5.8656 kgm/s

The resultant velocity of the two objects is given by;

R² = 16.415² + 5.8656²

R² = 303.858

R = √303.858

R = 17.432 kgm/s

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision;

total initial momentum before = total final momentum after collision

P₁(x) + P₂(y) = Pf

R = Pf

R = v(m₁ + m₂)

17.432 = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final components of velocity of the composite object

$v = \frac{17.432}{m_1 + m_2} \\\\v = \frac{17.432}{3.35+1.88} \\\\v = 3.33 \ m/s$

Therefore, the final components of velocity of the composite object is 3.33 m/s.

A 91-kg astronaut and a 1300-kg satellite are at rest relative to the space shuttle. The astronaut pushes on the satellite, givi

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

18.2145 meters

Explanation:

Using the conservation of momentum, we have that:

$m1v1 + m2v2 = m1'v1' + m2'v2'$

m1 = m1' is the mass of the astronaut, m2=m2' is the mass of the satellite, v1 and v2 are the inicial speed of the astronaut and the satellite (v1 = v2 = 0), and v1' and v2' are the final speed of the astronaut and the satellite. Then we have that:

$0 + 0 = 91*v1' + 1300*0.17$

$v1' = -1300*0.17/91 = -2.4286\ m/s$

The negative sign of this speed just indicates the direction the astronaut goes, which is the opposite direction of the satellite.

If the astronaut takes 7.5 seconds to come into contact with the shuttle, their initial distance is:

$distance = 2.4286 * 7.5 = 18.2145\ meters$

When rocks experience high temperatures and differential stresses deep in the earth, their grains tend to ________?

pochemuha

Break into small particles. The heat causes the rock to break up and form pebbles or sand. Hope that helped. Have a nice day

A 60.0 kg girl stands up on a stationary floating raft and decides to go into shore. She dives off the 180 kg floating raft with

padilas [110]

Momentum, p = m.v
m of the girl = 60.0 kg
m of the boat = 180 kg
v of the girl = 4.0 m/s

A) Momentum of the girl as she is diving:
p = m.v = 60.0 kg * 4.0 m/s = 24.0 N/s

B) momentum of the raft = - momentum of the girl = -24.0 N/s

C) speed of the raft

p = m.v ; v = p/m = 24.0N/s / 180 kg = -0.13 m/s [i.e. in the opposite direction of the girl's velocity]

Is it more fun on a swing with low or high amplitude? Explain.

marusya05 [52]

A pendulum is an object hung from a fixed point that swings back and forth under the action of gravity. In the example of the playground swing, the swing is supported by chains that are attached to fixed points at the top of the swing set. When the swing is raised and released, it will move freely back and forth due to the force of gravity on it. The swing continues moving back and forth without any extra outside help until friction (between the air and the swing and between the chains and the attachment points) slows it down and eventually stops it.
