Incomplete question.The complete question is here

A strong man is compressing a lightweight spring between two weights. One weight has a mass of 2.3 kgkg , the other a mass of 5.3 kgkg . He is holding the weights stationary, but then he loses his grip and the weights fly off in opposite directions. The lighter of the two is shot out at a speed of 6.0 m/sm/s .What is the speed of the heavier weight?

Answer:

v_{2f}=2.60m/s

Explanation:

Given data

First weight mass m₁=2.3 kg

Second weight mass m₂=5.3 kg

Lighter weight speed v₁i= -6.0 m/s

To find

Heavier weight velocity v₂f

Solution

From law of conservation of momentum

p_{f}=p_{i}\\ m_{1}v_{1f}+m_{2}v_{2f}=m_{1}v_{1i}+m_{2}v_{2i}\\as\\v_{1i}=v_{2i}=0\\So\\ m_{1}v_{1f}+m_{2}v_{2f}=0\\ m_{1}v_{1f}=-m_{2}v_{2f}\\v_{2f}=(\frac{ m_{1}v_{1f}}{-m_{2}} )\\v_{2f}=(\frac{ 2.3kg*(-6.0m/s)}{-(5.3kg)} )\\v_{2f}=(-13.8/-5.3)\\v_{2f}=2.60m/s

What do the arrows in this photograph represent
babunello [35]

Answer: D. An action-reaction force pair

Explanation: When you sit in your chair, your body exerts a downward force on the chair and the chair exerts an upward force on your body. There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the chair and a force on your body. Another example would be a person pushing against a wall (action force), and the wall exerts an equal and opposite force against the person.

A thin rod of length 0.75 m and mass 0.42 kg is suspended
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

a)  K = 0.63 J, b)  h = 0.153 m

Explanation:

a) In this exercise we have a physical pendulum since the rod is a material object, the angular velocity is

         w² = \frac{m g d}{I}

where d is the distance from the pivot point to the center of mass and I is the moment of inertia.

The rod is a homogeneous body so its center of mass is at the geometric center of the rod.

              d = L / 2

the moment of inertia of the rod is the moment of a rod supported at one end

              I = ⅓ m L²

we substitute

            w = \sqrt{\frac{mgL}{2}  \ \frac{1}{\frac{1}{3} mL^2} }

            w = \sqrt{\frac{3}{2}  \ \frac{g}{L} }

            w = \sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} \ \frac{9.8}{0.75}  }

            w = 4.427 rad / s

an oscillatory system is described by the expression

              θ = θ₀ cos (wt + Φ)

the angular velocity is

             w = dθ /dt

             w = - θ₀ w sin (wt + Ф)

In this exercise, the kinetic energy is requested in the lowest position, in this position the energy is maximum. For this expression to be maximum, the sine function must be equal to ±1

In the exercise it is indicated that at the lowest point the angular velocity is

           w = 4.0 rad / s

the kinetic energy is

           K = ½ I w²

           K = ½ (⅓ m L²) w²

           K = 1/6 m L² w²

           K = 1/6 0.42 0.75² 4.0²

           K = 0.63 J

b) for this part let's use conservation of energy

starting point. Lowest point

             Em₀ = K = ½ I w²

final point. Highest point

             Em_f = U = m g h

energy is conserved

             Em₀ = Em_f

             ½ I w² = m g h

             ½ (⅓ m L²) w² = m g h

             h = 1/6 L² w² / g

             h = 1/6 0.75² 4.0² / 9.8

             h = 0.153 m

The tongue weight of a trailer should be what percent of the gross trailer weight rating
mario62 [17]

Answer:

between 10 and 15 percent

Explanation:

How to put your load

- First load the heavy

The safe trailer starts loading correctly. Uneven weight can affect steering, brakes and swing control.

In general, 60% of the weight of the load should be in the front half of the trailer and 40% in the rear half (unless the manufacturer indicates something different). When you place the load, you want it to be balanced from side to side, keeping the center of gravity near the ground and on the axle of the trailer.

-  Hold your load

After balancing the load, you must hold it in place. An untapped load can move when the vehicle is moving and cause trailer instability.

- Trailer weight

To avoid overloading the trailer, look for the recommended weight rating. It is located on the VIN plate in the trailer chassis, usually on the tongue. Confirm the Gross Vehicle Weight Classification (GVWR) before towing.

GVWR: is the total weight that the trailer can support, including its weight. You can also find this number as the Gross Trailer Weight (GTW). The weight of the tongue should be 10-15% of the GTW.

Having aced your Physics 2111 class, you get a sweet summer-job working in the International Space Station. Your room-mate, Cosm
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

a

The speed is   s =  5.857 m/s

b

The distance is  D = 22.4  \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The speed of the banana is  v =  16 \ m/s

   The distance from my  location is  d =  8.2  \ m  

     The time taken is  t = 1.4 \ s

The speed of the ice cream is

          s =  \frac{d}{t}

substituting values

        s =  \frac{8.4}{1.4}

        s =  5.857 m/s

The distance of separation between i and Valdimir is the same as the distance covered by the banana

   So  

          D =  v * t

substituting values

        D = 16 *  1.4

        D = 22.4  \  m
