A projectile of mass 5 kg is fired with an initial speed of 176 m/s at an angle of 32◦ with the horizontal. At the top of its tr

ajectory, the projectile explodes into two fragments of masses 2 kg and 3 kg . The 3 kg fragment lands on the ground directly below the point of explosion 4.1 s after the explosion. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . Find the magnitude of the velocity of the 2 kg fragment immediatedly after the explosion. Answer in units of m/s.

Answer:

v1 = 377.98 m/s

Explanation:

m = 5 Kg

v0 = 176 m/s

v0x = v0*Cos 32° = 176 m/s*Cos 32° = 149.256 m/s

m1 = 2 Kg

m2 = 3 Kg

t = 4.1 s

g = 9.81 m/s²

Before  the explosion

pix = m*v0x = 5 Kg*149.256 m/s = 746.282 Kgm/s

piy = 0

After the explosion

pfx = m1*v1x

knowing that pix = pfx

we have

746.282 = 2*v1x

v1x = 373.14 m/s

v2y = g*t

pfy = m1*v1y + m2*v2y

pfy = 2*v1y + 3*(9.81*4.1)

pfy = 2*v1y + 120.663

knowing that piy = pfy = 0

we have

0 = 2*v1y + 120.663

v1y = 60.33 m/s

Finally we apply

v1 = √(v1x² + v1y²)

v1 = √(373.14² + 60.33²)

v1 = 377.98 m/s

Two people were pulling this thing with 560 Newton. Now they are using a rope with 50°. How much Newton would they need to pull
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

10 N

Explanation:

While many people would like to simply add the forces from each end to get a total force, this is fundamentally incorrect.

A force of 30n is applied to a screwdriver to pry the lid off of a can of paint. The screwdriver applies 75n of force to the lid
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
The mechanical advantage of the screwdriver that is being described above is equal to 75N. This means that for every 30N that is applied on the screwdriver, this simple machine would in turn apply 75N of force to the lid of the can.

A book is dropped from a window. It takes 5 seconds to reach the ground. What is its velocity after 2 seconds? What’s the veloci
ira [324]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity is 0. In the equation v = v0+at where v0 is the initial velocity of 0, we only have to fill in -9.8 for a and 2 for t to get the velocity after 2 seconds -19.6 m/s; after 5 seconds, when it hits the ground, a = -9.8 and t = 5 to give a velocity of -49 m/s. Gravity pulls down everything at the same rate, it doesn't matter whether we drop a feather or an elephant from the window!
