Consider the following distribution of objects: a 2.00-kg object with its center of gravity at (0, 0) m, a 2.20-kg object at (0,

5.00) m, and a 3.40-kg object at (2.00, 0) m. Where should a fourth object of mass 6.00 kg be placed so that the center of gravity of the four-object arrangement will be at (0, 0)?

Answer:

body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)

Explanation:

The concept of center of gravity is of great importance since in this all external forces are considered applied, it is defined by

               x_cm = 1 /M   ∑ x_{i} m_{i}

               y_cm = 1 /M   ∑ y_{i} mi

Where M is the total mass of the body, mi is the mass of each element

give us the mass and position of this masses

body 1

m1 = 2.00 ka

x1 = 0 me

y1 = 0 me

body 2

m2 = 2.20 kg

x2 = 0m

y2 = 5 m

body 3

m3 = 3.4 kg

x3 = 2.00 m

y3 = 0

body 4

m4 = 6 kg

    x4=?

   y4=?

mass center position

x_cm = 0

y_cm = 0

let's apply to the equations of the initial part

X axis

    M = 2.00 + 2.20 + 3.40

    M = 7.6 kg

    0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.2 0 + 3.4 2 + 6 x4)

     x4 = -6.8 / 6

     x4 = -1,133 m

Axis y

    0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.20 5 +3.4 0 + 6 y4)

    y4 = -11/6

    y4 = -1.83 m

body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)

A 85-kg astronaut is stranded from his space shuttle. He throws a 1-kg hammer away from the shuttle with a velocity of 17 m/s. H
algol [13]

Answer:

0.2 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of astronaut, M = 85 Kg

mass of hammer, m = 1 Kg

velocity of hammer , v =17 m/s

speed of astronaut, v' = ?

initial speed of the astronaut and the hammer be equal to zero = ?

Using conservation of momentum

(M + m) V = M v' + m v

(M + m) x 0 = 85 x v' + 1 x 17

85 v' = -17

  v' = -0.2 m/s

negative sign represent the astronaut is moving in opposite direction of hammer.

Hence, the speed of the astronaut is equal to 0.2 m/s

Why is it important to consider the experimental error in all the empirical results presented?
irinina [24]

Answer:

It is very important because scientists, especially the ones with empirical experiments and results, are prone to error and the empirical data is in need to be under strict observation done not only by many scientists but also by expermiented ones. This guards everybody to change the parameters suddenly which can affect the real results of an experiment

Pls help, me, i nees to submit now
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

12m

Explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question given, we must observe the characteristics of image formed by a plane mirror.

The image formed by a plane mirror have the following characteristics:

1. Laterally inverted.

2. Same distance as the object from the mirror.

3. Same height as the object.

4. Virtual.

With the above information, we can calculate the distance between the boy and his image as follow:

Initially:

Object distance (u) = 4m

Image distance (v) = 4m

The boy moved 2m away, therefore:

Object distance (u) = 2 + 4 = 6m

Image distanc(v) = 2 + 4 = 6m

The distance between the boy and his image will be the sum of his distance (u) and image distance (v) i.e (u + v)

The distance between the boy and his image = 6 + 6 = 12m

Therefore, the distance between the boy and his image is 12m.
