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

A lightweight vertical spring of force constant k has its lower end mounted on a table. You compress the spring by a distance d,
shusha [124]

Answer:

v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can do an analysis of the energies involved in the system. Basically the addition of the initial potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the mass should be the same as the addition of the final potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the block. So we get the following equation:

U_{0}+K_{0}=U_{f}+K_{f}

In this case, since the block is moving from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. When the block loses contact with the spring, the final potential energy of the spring will be zero, so the equation simplifies to:

U_{0}=K_{f}

The initial potential energy of the spring is given by the equation:

U_{0}=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}

the Kinetic energy of the block is then given by the equation:

K_{f}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}

so we can now set them both equal to each other, so we get:

=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}

This new equation can be simplified if we multiplied both sides of the equation by a 2, so we get:

kd^{2}=mv_{f}^{2}

so now we can solve this for the final velocity, so we get:

v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

A circular test track for cars has a circumference of 3.5 kmkm . A car travels around the track from the southernmost point to t
elixir [45]

Answer:

(A) Distance will be equal to 1.75 km

(B) Displacement will be equal to 1.114 km

Explanation:

We have given circumference of the circular track = 3.5 km

Circumference is given by 2\pi r=3.5

r = 0.557 km

(a) It is given that car travels from southernmost point to the northernmost point.

For this car have to travel the distance equal to semi perimeter of the circular track

So distance will be equal to =\frac{3.5}{2}=1.75km

(b) If car go along the diameter of the circular track then it will also go from southernmost point to the northernmost point. and it will be equal to diameter of the track

So displacement will be equal to d = 2×0.557 = 1.114 m
