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

What has to happen for a feather and ball to fall at the same time
Alex_Xolod [135]
This means that two objects will reach the ground at the same time if they are dropped simultaneously from the same height. ... When air resistance plays a role, the shape of the object becomes important. In air, a feather and a ball do not fall at the same rate.

A point charge Q at the center of a sphere of radius R produces an electric flux of Φ coming out of the sphere. If the charge r
Dafna1 [17]

Remains the same

Explanation:

According to Gauss's law, the electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the charge enclosed by the surface. So no matter how big or small we make the surface that encloses the charge, the electric flux remains the same because it only depends on the enclosed charge, not surface area.

What evidence shows galaxies are moving away from us?
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Redshift and blueshift describe how light shifts toward shorter or longer wavelengths as objects in space (such as stars or galaxies) move closer or farther away from us. The concept is key to charting the universe's expansion.

Visible light is a spectrum of colors, which is clear to anyone who has looked at a rainbow. When an object moves away from us, the light is shifted to the red end of the spectrum, as its wavelengths get longer. If an object moves closer, the light moves to the blue end of the spectrum, as its wavelengths get shorter hope this helps.
