A wagon has a mass of 100 grams and an

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Net force on the wagon is 200 N

Explanation:

As we know by Newton's II law that net force on the system of mass is given as product of mass and acceleration

Here we know that

mass = 100 kg

a = 2 m/s/s

now we have

$F = ma$

$F = (100)(2)$

$F = 200 N$

An unstable particle at rest breaks up into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the lighter fragment is equal to 2.90 ✕ 1

Answer:

The speed of the heavier fragment is 0.335c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the lighter fragment $M_{l}=2.90\times10^{-28}\ kg$

Mass of the heavier fragment $M_{h}=1.62\times10^{-27}\ Kg$

Speed of lighter fragment = 0.893c

We need to calculate the speed of the heavier fragment

Let v is the speed of the second fragment after decay

Using conservation of relativistic momentum

$0=\drac{m_{1}v_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}-\drac{m_{2}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}$

$\drac{m_{1}v_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}=\drac{m_{2}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}$

$\dfrac{2.90\times10^{-28}\times0.893c}{\sqrt{1-(0.893)^2}}=\dfrac{1.62\times10^{-27}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}$

$\dfrac{v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}=\dfrac{2.90\times10^{-28}\times0.893c}{1.62\times10^{-27}\times0.45}$

$\dfrac{v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}=0.355c$

$\dfrac{v_{2}}{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^{2}}{c^2}}=(0.355c)^2$

$\dfrac{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{(0.355c)}$

$\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}-\dfrac{1}{c^2}=\dfrac{1}{(0.355c)^2}$

$\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{c^2}+\dfrac{1}{0.126c^2}$

$\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{c^2}(1+\dfrac{1}{0.126})$

$\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{8.93}{c^2}$

$v_{2}^2=\dfrac{c^2}{8.93}$

$v_{2}=0.335c$

Hence, The speed of the heavier fragment is 0.335c.

A particle moves at a constant speed in a circular path with a radius of r=2.06 cm. If the particle makes four revolutions each

nataly862011 [7]

The centripetal acceleration is $13.0 m/s^2$

Explanation:

For an object in uniform circular motion, the centripetal acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

v is the speed of the object

r is the radius of the circle

The speed of the object is equal to the ratio between the length of the circumference ( $2\pi r$ ) and the period of revolution (T), so it can be rewritten as
