To see which way atmospheric conditions and meteorological phenomena are moving, and how fast.
Also to see whether they were correct yesterday.
Answer:
Speed of larger piece is 
Explanation:
We apply the principle of conservation of momentum.
The watermelon is initially at rest. The initial momentum = 0 kg m/s in all directions.
After the collision,
Vertical momentum = momentum of piece in y-direction + y-component of momentum of larger piece = 
Here, 
is the y-component of velocity of larger piece.
This is equal to 0, since the initial momentum is 0.
Horizontal momentum = momentum of piece in x-direction + x-component of momentum of larger piece = 
Here, 
is the x-component of velocity of larger piece.
This is also equal to 0, since the initial momentum is 0.
The velocity of the larger piece, 
, is the resultant of and . Since they are mutually perpendicular,
<u>The following statements are true about centripetal force
:</u>
- Without centripetal force, an object would continue in a straight
- line.
- Gravity can be a centripetal force, such as when it pulls a thrown
- baseball down to the ground.
- Friction can be a centripetal force, such as when it keeps a car on the road going around a curve.
Answer: Option A, C, and D
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Centripetal Force & Examples-
Centripetal force can be defined as the component of force that acts on an object in a curvilinear motion, directed towards the centre of axis of the circular path. This is the force responsible to pull an object in an inward direction and balance the pace on the path.
In the absence of the centripetal force, an object will either move in the direction of motion or on a straight path instead of moving inwards. It's also called as an "inward Force" as it tends to move the object towards the centre of the curved path.
As an example, a car moving on a circular road accelerates due to its constant change in direction since it's moving on a circular path. Now, the frictional force comes into picture that contributes its component as a centripetal force, pulling it towards the centre of the axis of the circular path.
Hence we can say that when a car turns on a circular path, friction force acts a centripetal force to maintain its motion and direction on the path. Talking about a baseball which is attracted by the gravitational force of the Earth and hence falls on the ground is clearly not the case of centripetal force as the path may not be circular every time and there is not axis of rotation.
Besides centripetal force, there is another force that acts on an object moving on a circular path but not in the inward direction. It is instead, equal and opposite of the centripetal force that draws the object away from the circular path of motion. Hence, it's called the "Outward force".
Answer:
The speed of the car B after the collision is same as the speed of the car A before collision.
Explanation:
lets take the mass of the car A = m kg
Initial speed of the car A = u m/s
The mass of the car B = m kg
Initial speed of the car A = 0 m/s
The final speed of the car A = 0 m/s
The final speed of the car B = v
There is no any external force on the masses that is why the linear momentum will be conserve.
Initial linear momentum = Final linear momentum
P = mass x velocity
m u + m x 0 = m x 0 + m v
m u + 0 = 0 + m v
m u = m v
v= u
Therefore we can say that ,the speed of the car B after the collision is same as the speed of the car A before collision.
Answer:
y = 0.1 m
Explanation:
The electrical power for point loads is
V = 
k Sum qi / ri
in this case
V = k (
)
indicate that V = 0
r₂ = 
the distance r1 is
r₁ = y -0
the distance r2
r₂ = 0.14 -y
we substitute
0.14 - y = 
y
y ( 
) = 0.14
y 1.4 = 0.14
y = 0.14 / 1.4
y = 0.1 m
