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 .

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

for the same type of atom with 8 protons, 9 neutrons, and 10 electrons, what type of atom or ion is it​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

O²⁻

Explanation:

Number of protons  = 8

Number of neutrons  = 9

Number of electrons  = 10

What type of atom or ion is it = ?

Solution:

Protons are the positively charged particle in an atom

Neutrons do not carry any charges

Electrons are negatively charged particles

 For this atom, the number of protons helps to identify what specie it is; so this is an oxygen atom.

Now,

     Charge  = Number of protons  - Number of electrons

      Charge  =  8  - 10  = -2

The charge on the atom is -2 and so it is an oxygen ion with -2 charge

 The ion is O²⁻

Is distance traveled by a moving train qualitative discrete continuous or na?
butalik [34]
Continuous. Discrete values are values like 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - they're values that are <em>distinct</em>, and typically there's some idea of a <em>next </em>and a <em>previous </em>value. When we're counting whole numbers, there's a definitive answer to which number comes after, and which number comes before. With continuous values, there's no real "next" or "last" value.

Motion is measured with <em>continuous </em>values; a train might move 300 yards in 1 minute, but we can look at smaller and smaller chunks of time to keep getting shorter and shorter distances. There is no <em />"next" distance the train moves after those 300 yards - it just doesn't make sense for there to be.

It's also measured <em>quantitatively</em>, not <em>qualitatively</em>. This just means that we can use numerical values to measure it, rather than other descriptors like color, smell, or taste.

How does the size of arctic foxes ears help to keep them warm in a cold environment
DochEvi [55]
artic foxes have thick white fur to keep them warm and also for camouflage in the snow they have small ears to keep the snow out of their ears so that they can hear better they also have thick fur lining and a thick pad on their feet this stops the paws from getting cold and they have short legs so then the body weight can be spread making it easier for the animal to not sink in the snow in the summer the artic fox turns brown to help make the fox invisible when people are hunting in the long grass
