A dinner plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide horizontally along the floor. Immediat

ely after the impact, a 320-g piece moves along the x-axis with a speed of 2.00 m/s and a 355-g piece moves along the y-axis with a speed of 1.50 m/s. The third piece has a mass of 100 g. In what direction relative to the +x-axis does the third piece move?
(a) 39.8º from the +x-axis
(b) 36.9° from the +x-axis
(c) 39.9° from the +x-axis
(d) 216.9° from the +x-axis
(e) 219.8° from the +X-axis

Answer:

M1 Vx1 + M2 Vx2 + M3 Vx3 = 0     conservation of momentum in x direction

Vx3 = -(M1 Vx1 + M2 Vx2 ) / M3

Vx3 = - 320 * 2 / 100 = -6.4 m/s      M2 has no x-component of momentum

Likewise:

Vy3 = -(M1 Vy1 + M2 Vy2 ) / M3

Vy3 = - 355 * 1.5 / 100 = -5.33 m/s

tan theta = -5.33 / -6.4 = .833    where theta is in the third quadrant and measured from the negative x-axis

theta = 39.8 deg

180 + 39.8 = 219.8     from the positive x-axis

Electron guns are used in X-ray tubes. The electrons are accelerated through a relatively large voltage and directed onto a meta
Paul [167]

Answer:

(a) Number of electrons per second strike the target is 3.125 x 10¹⁵.

(b) Charge that strikes the target in 0.750 s is 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ C .

Explanation:

(a) Let n be the number of electrons per second strike the target. We know that current (I) is given by the relation :

I = n x e

Here e is charge of electron.

Substitute 0.500 x 10⁻³ A for I and 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C for e in the above equation.

0.500 x 10⁻³ = n x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

n = 3.125 x 10¹⁵

(b) Let q be the charge that strikes the target. We know that :

q = I x t

Here I is current and t is time.

Substitute 0.500 x 10⁻³ A for I and 0.750 s for t in the above equation,

q = 0.500 x 10⁻³ x 0.750

q = 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ C

What is the difference between a solar cell and a solar panel
dexar [7]

Solar cells and solar panels are both integral, and closely related, parts of a solar energy system. When reading about solar energy systems, it may seem as if these titles are almost interchangeable. Writers refer to them both when discussing energy production and output, and often do so without explanation of how these parts work. However, each plays a distinct role. Solar cells contain all the parts necessary to convert sunlight to electricity. Solar panels combine and direct all of that energy output.

On the surface of the earth, weight is calculated by:
sdas [7]

On the surface of the earth, weight is calculated by multiplying mass and gravity.

 

<span>Because we know the radius of the Earth, we can use the Law of Universal Gravitation to calculate the mass of the Earth in terms of the gravitational force on an object (its weight) at the Earth's surface, using the radius of the Earth as the distance. We also need the Constant of Proportionality in the Law of Universal Gravitation, G. This value was experimentally determined by Henry Cavendish in the 18th century to be the extemely small force of 6.67 x 10</span>-11 Newtons between two objects weighing one kilogram each and separated by one meter. Cavendish determined this constant by accurately measuring the horizontal force between metal spheres in an experiment sometimes referred to as "weighing the earth."

 

 

The correct answer between all the choices given is the third choice or letter C. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
