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}

What causes atoms to bond together<br> ?!?
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

electrostatic attraction

Explanation:

Atoms form chemical bonds with other atoms when there's an electrostatic attraction between them. This attraction results from the properties and characteristics of the atoms' outermost electrons, which are known as valence electrons.

Calculate the energy gained by an ice block in the following experiment.
MAXImum [283]

The heat is exchanged when two different temperature objects come in contact. The energy gained by an ice block is 2.3 Joules.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of the object.

A 7g block of ice was added to a coffee cup full of 103.4 grams of water. The water had an initial temperature T₁ = 24.5 C and a final temperature T₂ = 19.2 C after all the ice had melted.

Heat lost by water = Heat gained by ice

Qgain = ms(T₂ -T₁ )

Substituting the value for mass of water m =103.4 g= 0.1034 kg , specific heat of water s = 4.18 kJ/kg and temperature values, we get

Qgain = 0.1034 x 4.18 x (24.5 - 19.2)

Qgain = 2.3 Joules

Thus, the energy gained by an ice block is 2.3 Joules.
