An object, with mass 32 kg and speed 26 m/s relative to an observer, explodes into two pieces, one 5 times as massive as the oth

er; the explosion takes place in deep space. The less massive piece stops relative to the observer. How much kinetic energy is added to the system during the explosion, as measured in the observer's reference frame?

Answer:

\Delta K = 2164.053\,J

Explanation:

Let consider the observer as an inertial reference frame. The object is modelled after the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

(32\,kg)\cdot (26\,\frac{m}{s} ) = (5.333\,kg)\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s} )+(26.665\,kg )\cdot v

The speed of the more massive piece is:

v = 31.202\,\frac{m}{s}

The kinetic energy added to the system is:

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [(5.333\,kg)\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}+(26.665\,kg )\cdot (31.202\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}]-\frac{1}{2}\cdot (32\,kg)\cdot (26\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}

\Delta K = 2164.053\,J

A 110 V power line is protected by a 15 A fuse. What is the maximum number of 400 W lamps that can be simultaneously operated in
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Total number of lamps will be 4            

Explanation:

We have given power of the lamp W = 400 watt

Potential difference across the lamp V=110 volt

We know that power is equal to P=VI

So 400=110\times I

I=3.636A

Total current is given 15 A

As it is given that lamps are connected in parallel so total current is the sum of current through each lamp

So number of lamp will be n=\frac{15}{3.636}=4.125

As the lamp can not be in negative

So total number of lamps will be 4

What part of an atom bonds with other atoms? ? A the innermost electrons B valence electronsany C the outermost protons D any el
kaheart [24]
Ionic bonds occur when electrons are donated from one atom to another. Each type of atom forms a characteristic number of covalentbonds with other atoms. An example of that is a hydrogen atom with one electron in its outer shell forms only one bond, its out most orbital becomes filled with two electrons.
