A two-stage rocket moves in space at a constant velocity of +4300 m/s. The two stages are then separated by a small explosive ch

arge placed between them. Immediately after the explosion the velocity of the 1160-kg upper stage is +5940 m/s. What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the 2100-kg lower stage immediately after the explosion?

Answer:

 v_{1f} = +3,394 103 m / s

Explanation:

We will solve this problem with the concept of the moment. Let's start by defining the system that is formed by the complete rocket before and after the explosions, bone with the two stages, for this system the moment is conserved.

The data they give is the mass of the first stage m1 = 2100 kg, the mass of the second stage m2 = 1160 kg and its final velocity v2f = +5940 m / s and the speed of the rocket before the explosion vo = +4300 m / s

The moment before the explosion

      p₀ = (m₁ + m₂) v₀

After the explosion

      pf = m₁ v_{1f} + m₂ v_{2f}

     p₀ = [texpv_{f}[/tex]

     (m₁ + m₂) v₀ = m₁ v_{1f} + m₂ v_{2f}

Let's calculate the final speed (v1f) of the first stage

     v_{1f} = ((m₁ + m₂) v₀ - m₂ v_{2f}) / m₁

     

     v_{1f} = ((2100 +1160) 4300 - 1160 5940) / 2100

     v_{1f} = (14,018 10 6 - 6,890 106) / 2100

     v_{1f} = 7,128 106/2100

     v_{1f} = +3,394 103 m / s

come the same direction of the final stage, but more slowly

Object A has a mass of 5 kg and a velocity of 6 m/s to the east while Object 1 point B has a mass of 12 kg and velocity 0.6 m/s
Olin [163]

Answer:

Momentum of system = 37.2 Kgm/s.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

  • Mass A = 5 kg
  • Velocity A = 6 m/s
  • Mass B = 12 kg
  • Velocity B = 0.6 m/s

To find the momentum of the system;

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = mass * velocity

<u>For object A;</u>

Momentum A = 5 * 6

Momentum A = 30 Kgm/s

<u>For object B;</u>

Momentum B = 12 * 0.6

Momentum B = 7.2 Kgm/s

Next, we would determine the momentum of this system using the formula;

Momentum of system = Momentum A + Momentum B

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

Momentum of system = 30 + 7.2

<em>Momentum of system = 37.2 Kgm/s.</em>

URGENT What does Newton's third law say about why momentum is conserved in collisions?
valentinak56 [21]
Newton's third law of motion is naturally applied to collisions between two objects. In a collision between two objects, both objects experience forces that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.For such a collision<span>, the forces acting between the two objects are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction</span>

A block slides down a frictionless inclined ramp. If the ramp angle is 17.0° and its length is 30.0 m, find the speed of the blo
shutvik [7]

Answer:

 v = 17.15 m/s

Explanation:

given,

angle of ramp = 17.0°

length of ramp(l) = 30 m

height of the ramp =  

     h = l sin \theta

     h = 30 sin 30^0

            h = 15 m

using energy of conservation

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

\dfrac{1}{2}v^2 = gh

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 15}

v = \sqrt{294}

 v = 17.15 m/s

 speed of block reaching at the bottom = v = 17.15 m/s
