Your film idea is about drones that take over the world. In the script, two drones are flying horizontally at the same speed and

direction, one directly above the other. Suddenly, the drone on top malfunctions and loses power. It falls and collides with the drone below. Just before the collision, the falling drone has a vertical component of velocity of 60 m/s, while maintaining its horizontal component of velocity. The falling drone has a mass of 1 kg and the bottom drone has a mass of 3 kg. Before the malfunction, both drones were traveling horizontally with a speed of 20 m/s. If the two drones stick together after the collision, find the final speed and direction of the two drones just after the collision. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Answer:

vₓ = 20 m/s,    v_{y}  = -15 m / s

Explanation:

This is a conservation of moment problem, since it is a vector quantity we can work each axis independently

The system is formed by the two drones, so the forces during the crash are internal and the moment is conserved

X axis

Initial moment. Before the crash

         p₀ = m₁ v₀ₓ + m₂ v₀ₓ

Final moment. After the crash

       p_{fx} = (m₁ + m₂) vₓ

      p₀ₓ = p_{fx}

      m₁ v₀ₓ + m₂ v₀ₓ = (m₁ + m₂) vₓ

       vₓ = (m₁ + m₂) v₀ₓ / (m₁ + m₂)

       vₓ = v₀ₓ  = 20 m/s

Y Axis

Initial

         p_{oy} = m₁ v_{oy}

Final

         p_{fy} = (m₁ + m₂) v_{y}

         p_{oy} = p_{fy}

the drom rises and when it falls it has the same speed because there is no friction    v_{oy} = -60 m/s          

 

           m₁ v_{oy} = (m₁ + m₂) v_{y}

            v_{y} = m₁ / (m₁ + m₂) v_{oy}

            v_{y}  = 1/4    60

            v_{y}  = -15 m / s

Vertical speed is down

10. How much total work do you do when you lift a 50 kg microwave 1.0 m off the ground and then push it 1.0 m
Mariulka [41]

Work formula:

W = Fd\cos(\theta)

F = 50N, d = 1.0 m

When you lift something straight up, the angle of the force is 90º

cos(90º) is 0, so there's no work done when you lift the microwave off the ground

W = (50N)(1.0)(0) = 0

F = 50N, d = 1.0 m

When you push the microwave, the angle is 0º and cos(0º) is 1. So there is work done here:

W = (50 N)(1.0m)(1)

W = 50

total work = 50 joules

If the mass of a material is 50 grams and the volume of the material is 12 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
AlekseyPX
The density of the material would be 
25/6 grams per cm^3.
to obtain the result above this is what we do:
density is calculated as: (the mass of the given material or object) / volume of the material 
which leads us to 50grams /12cm^3

A waitperson carrying a tray with a platter on it tips the tray at an angle of 12 degrees below the horizontal. If the gravitati
Tasya [4]

Answer:1.04 N

Explanation:

Given

Gravitational Force on the Platter is 5 N

Tray makes an angle of \theta =12^{\circ}

This gravitational Force has components along and Perpendicular to Platter

Perpendicular Force W_p=W\cos \theta

W_p=5\times \cos 12=4.89 N

Along the Tray

W_{along}=W\sin \theta

W_{along}=5\times \sin 12=1.04 N

Thus 1.04 N is the magnitude of force that will cause Platter to slide down
