Answer:  75,242.9 m/s

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following parameters

mass of Lion (ML) = 169,169 kg

velocity of lion (VL) = 777,377.7 m/s

mass of Gazelle (Mg) = 31,731.7 kg

velocity of Gazelle (Vg) = 63,863.8 kg

mass of Lion and Gazelle (M) = 200,900.7 kg

velocity of Lion and Gazelle (V) = ?

The first figure below shows the motion of the Lion and Gazelle with their direction.

The second diagram shows the motion of the Lion and Gazelle with their directions rearranged to form a right angle triangle.

from the triangle formed we can get the velocity of the Lion and Gazelle immediately after collision using their momentum and Phytaghoras theorem

momentum = mass x velocity

momentum of the Lion = 169,169 x 77,377.3 = 13,089,840,463.7 kgm/s

momentum of the Gazelle = 31,731.7 x 63,863.8 = 2,026,506,942.46 kgm/s

momentum of the Lion and Gazelle = 200,900.7  x V

now applying Phytaghoras theorem we have

13,089,840,463.7 + 2,026,506,942.46 =  200,900.7 x V

15,116,347,406.16 = 200,900.7 x V

V = 75,242.9 m/s

The final speed of the lion–gazelle system immediately after the attack is about 65.9 km/hr

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Newton's second law of motion states that the resultant force applied to an object is directly proportional to the mass and acceleration of the object.

\large {\boxed {F = ma }

<em>F = Force ( Newton )</em>

<em>m = Object's Mass ( kg )</em>

<em>a = Acceleration ( m )</em>

\texttt{ }

\large {\boxed {F = \Delta (mv) \div t }

<em>F = Force ( Newton )</em>

<em>m = Object's Mass ( kg )</em>

<em>v = Velocity of Object ( m/s )</em>

<em>t = Time Taken ( s )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem !

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

mass of lion = m₁ = 169 kg

velocity of lion = v₁ = 77.3 j km/hr

mass of gazelle = m₂ = 31.7 kg

velocity of gazelle = v₂ = 63.8 i km/hr

<u>Asked:</u>

final speed = v = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>We will use </em><em>Conservation of Momentum</em><em> to solve the problem as follows:</em>

p_1 + p_2 = p

m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2 = ( m_1 + m_2 ) \overrightarrow{v}

169 ( 77.3 \widehat{j} ) + 31.7 ( 63.8 \widehat{i} ) = ( 169 + 31.7 ) \overrightarrow{v}

\overrightarrow{v} \approx 65.1 \widehat{j} + 10.1 \widehat{i}

|\overrightarrow{v}| \approx \sqrt{65.1^2 + 10.1^2}

|\overrightarrow{v}| \approx 65.9 \texttt{ km/hr}

The lawn sprinkler consists of four arms that rotate in the horizontal plane. The diameter of each nozzle is 8 mm, and the water
sashaice [31]

Answer: the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec

Explanation:

First we calculate the linear velocity of the single sprinkler;

Area of the nozzle = π/4 × d²

given that d = 8mm = 8 × 10⁻³

Area of the nozzle = π/4 × (8 × 10⁻³)²

A = 5.024 × 10⁻⁵ m²

Now total discharge is dived into 4 jets so discharge for single jet will be;

Q_single = Q / n = 0.006 / 4 = 1.5 × 10⁻³ m³/sec

So using continuity equation ;

Q_single = A × V_single

V_single = Q_single/A

we substitute

V_single = (1.5 × 10⁻³) / (5.024 × 10⁻⁵)

V_single = 29.8566 m/s

Now resolving the forces as shown in the second image,

Vt = Vcos30°

Vt = 29.8566 × cos30°

Vt = 25.8565 m/s

Finally we calculate the angular velocity;

Vt = rω

ω_single = Vt / r

from the given diagram, radius is 300mm = 0.3m

so we substitute

ω_single = 25.8565 / 0.3

ω_single = 86.1883 rad/sec

Therefore the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec

Juliette [100K]
The correct response that will be used to describe this particular element would be the third option, since all of the other options are incorrect and apply to different elements in their groups. The element is a metal and will react with a non metal.
