A dinner plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide horizontally along the floor. Immediat

ely after the impact, a 200-g piece moves along the +x-axis with a speed of 2.00 m/s, a 235-g piece moves along the +y-axis with a speed of 1.50 m/s. The third piece has a mass of 100 g. What is the speed of the third piece?
a) 2.51 m/s
b) 5.33 m/s
c) 6.83 m/s
d) 2.57 m/s
e) 3.50 m/s

Answer:

p_k=\sqrt{p_x^2+p_y^2}}

Explanation:

Apply the momentum in each direction knowing that the impact is at the same time for the pieces so

p_x=m_1*v_1

p_x=200g*2.0m/s=0.4kgm/s

p_y=m_2*v_2

p_y=235g*1.5m/s=0.3525kgm/s

So the momentum in the other piece can be find knowing that

p_x^2+p_y^2=p_k^2

So:

p_k=\sqrt{p_x^2+p_y^2}}

p_k=\sqrt{0.4^2+0.3525^2}}=\sqrt{0.2842 kg^2*m^2/s^2}

p_k=0.5331kg*m/s

To find the velocity knowing the mass

p_k=m_k*v_k

v_k=\frac{p_k}{m_k}=\frac{0.5331 kg*m/s}{0.10kg}

v_k=5.331 m/s

<h2>Answers:</h2><h2 /><h2>a) Arrow B</h2><h2>b) Arrow E</h2>

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon in which a wave (the light in this case) bends or changes its direction <u>when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.</u>  Where the Refractive index is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material.  

According to this, if we observe the rays  A an D passing throgh the biconcave lens, we will have two mediums:

1) The air

2)The material of the biconcave lens

This two mediums have different refractive indexes, hence the rays will change the direction.

-For the incident ray A, the corresponding refractive ray is B, because is the ray that bends after passing throgh the lens

-For the incident ray D, the refracted ray is E following the same principle.

The acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring, was written by this woman in 1962.
olga_2 [115]
Rachel Carson was the author of the acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring. The book was published in 1962.
It documented the negative effect that synthetic pesticides have on the environment, specifically on birds.
This book laid bare to the American public what chemical companies indirectly contributed to the environment. 
The public furor this book caused led to the reversal of the national pesticide policy, a nationwide ban on DDT for agricultural uses, and inspired the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
