A system consists of three particles with these masses and velocities: mass 3.00 kg, moving north at 3.00 m/s; mass 4.00 kg, mov

ing south at 3.70 m/s; and mass 7.00 kg, moving north at 2.00 m/s. What is the total momentum of the system? Take north as the positive axis. Enter a positive answer if the total momentum is due north and a negative answer if the total momentum is due south.

Answer:

the total momentum is 8 .2 kg m/s in north direction.

Explanation:

given,

mass(m₁) 3.00 kg, moving north at v₁ = 3.00 m/s

mass(m₂) 4.00 kg, moving south at v₂ =  3.70 m/s

mass(m₃) 7.00 kg, moving north at v₃ = 2.00 m/s

north as the positive axis

south as the negative axis

now

total momentum = m₁v₁ + m₂ v₂ + m₃ v₃

total momentum = 3 x 3 - 4 x 3.7 + 7 x 2

                           = 9 - 14.8 + 14

                           = 8 .2 kg m/s

hence, the total momentum is 8 .2 kg m/s in north direction.

Let t = Theta and p = Phi
Tan t = y/x    Then x =y/Tant.
Tant = y/(x-d)  x-d = y/Tanp
y/Tant  - d = y/Tanp
y -d*Tanr = y*Tant/Tanp
y-y*Tant/Tanp  =  d*Tanr
y(1 - Tanr/Tanp = d*Tant

y = d*Tant/(1-Tant/Tanp)

Edge 2020 waves and diffraction lab report d a t a ​
Sever21 [200]

Answer:Theoretical Discussion

The diffraction of classical waves refers to the phenomenon wherein the waves encounter an obstacle that fragments the wave into components that interfere with one another. Interference simply means that the wave fronts add together to make a new wave which can be significantly different than the original wave. For example, a pair of sine waves having the same amplitude, but being 180◦ out of phase will sum to zero, since everywhere one is positive, the other is negative by an equal amount.

Rapid gas exchange can be accomplished more easily in air than in water because A. the O2 content of water is higher than that o
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

C. water is more dense and viscous

Explanation:

Rapid gas exchange can be accomplished more easily in air than in water because water is more dense and viscous.

Gases have the greatest ease of diffusion of their respective particles, as occurs in air, since their molecules have higher speeds and have more distance from each other than liquids.

The molecular diffusion rate in liquids is much less than in gases. The molecules of a liquid are very close (liquids are more dense and viscous) to each other compared to those of a gas, then the gas molecules hits with the molecules of the liquid with more frequency and this causes that the gas moves slower than in other gas (for example in air).

a ball on a string is swung overhead in a horizontal circle with a radius of 0.66 m. what speed (in m/s) does the ball need to m
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The ball is moving in a horizontal circle.

The force acting towards the center of the circle is

F = M a = M * V^2 / R    

a = V^2 / R      simplifying equation

V = (a / R)^1/2 = (23 / .66)^1/2 = 5.90 m/s
