Answer:

The speed of the 11.5kg block after the collision is V≅4.1 m/s

Explanation:

ma= 4.8 kg

va1= 7.3 m/s

va2= - 2.5 m/s

mb= 11.5 kg

vb1= 0 m/s

vb2= ?

vb2= ( ma*va1 - ma*va2) / mb

vb2= 4.09 m/s ≅ 4.1 m/s

A spherical asteroid of average density would have a mass of 8.7×1013kg if its radius were 2.0 km.A)If you and your spacesuit ha
WITCHER [35]

A) 0.189 N

The weight of the person on the asteroid is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the asteroid on the person, at a location on the surface of the asteroid:

F=\frac{GMm}{R^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

8.7×10^13 kg is the mass of the asteroid

m = 130 kg is the mass of the man

R = 2.0 km = 2000 m is the radius of the asteroid

Substituting into the equation, we find

F=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)(130 kg)}{(2000 m)^2}0.189 N=

B) 2.41 m/s

In order to orbit just above the surface of the asteroid (r=R), the centripetal force that keeps the astronaut in orbit must be equal to the gravitational force acting on the astronaut:

\frac{GMm}{R^2}=\frac{mv^2}{R}

where

v is the speed of the astronaut

Solving the formula for v, we find the minimum speed at which the astronaut should launch himself and then orbit the asteroid just above the surface:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)}{2000 m}}=2.41 m/s

An electron moves at 2.80 ×106 m/s through a region in which there is a magnetic field of unspecified direction and magnitude 7.
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

a = 3.73*10^{16}m/s^2

Explanation:

The magnetic force is given by the equation,

\vec{F}_{magnetic} = q (\vec{v}X\vec{B})

\vec{F}_{magnetic} = qvBsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between velocity vector and the magnetic field,

That angle is 90°.

We know as well that

F=ma, replacing the mass and the acceleration in our previous equation we have

ma = qvBsin\theta

a= \frac{qvBsin\theta}{m}

Our values are,

q= 1.6*10^{-19}c

v=2.8*10^6m/s

B=7.6*10^{-2}T

m=9.11*10^{-31}kg

Substituting,

a = \frac{(1.6*10^{-19})(2.8*10^6)(7.6*10^{-2})}{9.11*10^{-31}}

a = 3.73*10^{16}m/s^2

The uranium nucleus consists of ? protons and ? neutrons.
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

An atomic nucleus consists of protons and neutrons, collectively called nucleons. Although protons repel each other, the nucleus is held tightly together by a short-range, but very strong, force called the strong nuclear force. A nucleus has less mass than the total mass of its constituent nucleons.
