lana [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The answer is option A.

Explanation:  Particles of matter are packed more loosely in the ground than in the air. This is true because it doesn't have thig like buildings and people stopping the sound waves.

jeka57 [31]

Answer :  The angle between the string and the horizontal is 30 degrees

Explanation:  Imagine this a a triangle where the length of the string (200m) is the hypotenuse and the height of the kite is the opposite side (100m) .

Let the angle between the string and the horizontal be theta.

Now  sin (Theta) = opposite side/hypotenuse

                             =  100/200 = 1/2

Therefore Theta = Sin ⁻¹ ( 1/2 )

Theta = 30 degrees

From the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1+ m2u2= m1v1+ m2v2
110*8+ 110*-10= 110*-10 + 110* v2
v2= 8 m/sec

A space vehicle of mass m has a speed v. At some instant, it separates into two pieces, each of mass 0.5m. One of the pieces is
Damm [24]

Answer:

W = ½ m v²

Explanation:

In this exercise we must solve it in parts, in a first part we use the conservation of the moment to find the speed after the separation

We define the system formed by the two parts of the rocket, therefore the forces during internal separation and the moment are conserved

initial instant. before separation

        p₀ = m v

final attempt. after separation

       p_{f} = m /2  0 + m /2 v_{f}

       p₀ = p_{f}

       m v = m /2 v_{f}

       v_{f}= 2 v

this is the speed of the second part of the ship

now we can use the relation of work and energy, which establishes that the work is initial to the variation of the kinetic energy of the body

     

initial energy

         K₀ = ½ m v²

final energy

        K_{f} = ½ m/2  0 + ½ m/2 v_{f}²

        K_{f} = ¼ m (2v)²

        K_{f} = m v²

         

the expression for work is

         W = ΔK = K_{f} - K₀

         W = m v² - ½ m v²

         W = ½ m v²
