Three masses are located in the x- y plane as follows: a mass of 6 kg is at (0 m, 0 m), a mass of 4 kg is at (3 m, 0 m), and a m

ass of 2 kg is at (0 m, 3 m). Where is the center of mass (or center of gravity) of the system?

Answer:

The center of mass of three mass in the x-y plane is located at (1,0.5).                  

Explanation:

It is given that, a mass of 6 kg is at (0,0), a mass of 4 kg is at (3,0), and a mass of 2 kg is at (0,3). We need to find the center of mass of the system. Center of mass in x direction  is :

C_x=\dfrac{6\times 0+4\times 3+2\times 0}{6+4+2}\\\\C_x=1

The center of mass in y direction is :

C_y=\dfrac{6\times 0+4\times 0+2\times 3}{6+4+2}\\\\C_y=0.5

So, the center of mass of three mass in the x-y plane is located at (1,0.5).

What two bodily functions are increased by a warm up
drek231 [11]

1) Blood flow: increases during warming improving muscle and joint elasticity. This decreases the possibility of having an injury.


2) Body temperature: This causes the cellular metabolism to increase. It also causes vasodilatation that allows a greater supply of oxygen and nutrients.

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e  \dfrac{m}{2} .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .
