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

★ Principal focus - A number of rays parallel to the principal axis after reflection from a concave mirror meet at a point on the principal axis or appear to come from a point after reflection from a convex mirror on the principal axis. This is called principal focus.

Any projectile always has a constant vertical acceleration of _______.
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: C. -9.81 m/s²

Explanation:

A. 9.81 m/s²  acceleration is considered positive when it goes to the center of the earth, so this option is incorrect.

B. 0 m/s²  This option is incorrect because acceleration is 0 for a linear motion without acceleration.

C. -9.81 m/s²  If a projectile goes to the sky, then the acceleration will be negative.

D. It is not constant. Acceleration is constant.
