P1i+p2i =p1f +p2f where p is momentum and i denotes initial, f denotes final, and 1 and 2 refers to the object number. If the object stops, their velocity is 0 and p1f and p2f also equal 0.

p=mass x velocity

We have p1i=-p2i

100v1i=-(200) (-10÷3.6)


Note: 10÷3.6 is 10km/hr in m/s
Note: The velocity of the second object ifs negative because I said the velocity of the first object was positive and the second object is travelling in the opposite direction

So v1i=20/3.6=5.56m/s

The Mars Curiosity rover was required to land on the surface of Mars with a velocity of 1 m/s. Given the mass of the landing veh
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The value is      A   = 39315 \  m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The velocity which the rover is suppose to land with is  v  =  1 \ m/s

    The  mass of the rover and the parachute is  m  =  2270 \ kg

     The  drag coefficient is  C__{D}}  =  0.5

      The atmospheric density of Earth  is  \rho =  1.2 \  kg/m^3

     The acceleration due to gravity in Mars is  g_m  =  3.689 \  m/s^2

     

Generally the Mars  atmosphere density is mathematically represented as

          \rho_m  =  0.71 *  \rho

=>        \rho_m  =  0.71 *  1.2

=>        \rho_m  = 0.852 \  kg/m^3

Generally the drag force on the rover and the parachute  is mathematically represented as

          F__{D}} =  m  *  g_{m}

=>       F__{D}} =  2270   *  3.689  

=>       F__{D}} =  8374 \ N  

Gnerally this drag force is mathematically represented as

         F__{D}} =   C__{D}} *  A *  \frac{\rho_m * v^2 }{2}

Here A is the frontal area

So  

         A   =  \frac{2 *  F__D }{ C__D}  *  \rho_m  * v^2   }

=>       A   =  \frac{2 * 8374 }{ 0.5 *  0.852    *  1 ^2   }

=>       A   = 39315 \  m^2

Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t
Drupady [299]

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

          V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A  2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

           V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

             V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

             V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

A uniform plank of length 5.0 m and weight 225 N rests horizontally on two supports, with 1.1 m of the plank hanging over the ri
lawyer [7]

Answer:

x = 0.6034 m

Explanation:

Given

L = 5 m

Wplank = 225 N

Wman = 522 N

d = 1.1 m

x = ?

We have to take sum of torques about the right support point.  If the board is just about to tip, the normal force from the left support will be going to zero.  So the only torques come from the weight of the plank and the weight of the man.

∑τ = 0  ⇒     τ₁ + τ₂ = 0  

Torque come from the weight of the plank = τ₁

Torque come from the weight of the man = τ₂

⇒  τ₁ = + (5 - 1.1)*(225/5)*((5 - 1.1)/2) - (1.1)*(225/5)*((1.1)/2) = 315 N-m (counterclockwise)

⇒  τ₂ = Wman*x = 522 N*x   (clockwise)

then

τ₁ + τ₂ = (315 N-m) + (- 522 N*x) = 0

⇒  x = 0.6034 m
