Answer:

The speed of the boxes are 1 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of box = 1 kg

Mass of another box = 2 kg

Suppose 1 kg box moves with 3 m/s speed.

We need to calculate the speed of the boxes

Using formula of conservation of momentum

m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})v

Where, u = initial velocity

v = final velocity

Put the value into the formula

1\times3+2\times0=(1+2)v

v=\dfrac{3}{3}

v=1\ m/s

Hence, The speed of the boxes are 1 m/s.

Define orbital velocity
sveta [45]

the Orbital Velocity is the velocity sufficient to cause a natural or artificial satellite to remain in orbit. Inertia of the moving body tends to make it move on in a straight line, while gravitational force tends to pull it down. The orbital path, elliptical or circular, representing a balance between gravity and inertia, and it follows a rue that states that the more massive the body at the centre of attraction is, the higher is the orbital velocity for a particular altitude or distance.

A small sphere with mass m is attached to a massless rod of length L that is pivoted at the top, forming a simple pendulum. The
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

a) see attached, a = g sin θ

b)

c)   v = √(2gL (1-cos θ))

Explanation:

In the attached we can see the forces on the sphere, which are the attention of the bar that is perpendicular to the movement and the weight of the sphere that is vertical at all times. To solve this problem, a reference system is created with one axis parallel to the bar and the other perpendicular to the rod, the weight of decomposing in this reference system and the linear acceleration is given by

          Wₓ = m a

          W sin θ = m a

          a = g sin θ

b) The diagram is the same, the only thing that changes is the angle that is less

                θ' = 9/2  θ

             

c) At this point the weight and the force of the bar are in the same line of action, so that at linear acceleration it is zero, even when the pendulum has velocity v, so it follows its path.

The easiest way to find linear speed is to use conservation of energy

Highest point

            Em₀ = mg h = mg L (1-cos tea)

Lowest point

          Emf = K = ½ m v²

          Em₀ = Emf

          g L (1-cos θ) = v² / 2

              v = √(2gL (1-cos θ))

In what ways is n2 gas removed from the atmosphere?
MaRussiya [10]
One way of removing nitrogen gas from the atmosphere is by natural nitrogen fixation. This is done by nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the oceans and in the soil. Nitrogen fixation is a process that converts the nitrogen in air to ammonia.
