Two asteroids identical to those above collide at right angles and stick together; i.e, their initial velocities were perpendicu

lar to each other (take A initially moving to the right and B initially moving up). Use momentum conservation (make a complete Momentum Chart) to find the velocity (magnitude and direction with-respect-to the velocity asteroid A had before the collision) of the asteroids after the collision.

Answer:

velocity = 62.89 m/s  in 58 degree measured from the x-axis

Explanation:

Relevant information:

Before the collision, asteroid A of mass 1,000 kg moved at 100 m/s, and asteroid B of mass 2,000 kg moved at 80 m/s.

Two asteroids moving with velocities collide at right angles and stick together. Asteroid A initially moving to right direction and asteroid B initially move in the upward direction.

Before collision Momentum of A = 1000 x 100 = $ 10^5$ kg - m/s in the right direction.

Before collision Momentum of B = 2000 x 80 = 1.6 x $ 10^5$  kg - m/s in upward direction.

Mass of System of after collision = 1000 + 2000 = 3000 kg

Now applying the Momentum Conservation, we get

Initial momentum in right direction = final momentum in right direction = $ 10^5$

And, Initial momentum in upward direction = Final momentum in upward direction = 1.6 x $ 10^5$

So, $ V_x = \frac{10^5}{3000} $  = $ \frac{100}{3} $  m/s

and $ V_y=\frac{160}{3}$  m/s

Therefore, velocity is = $ \sqrt{V_x^2 + V_y^2} $

                                   = $ \sqrt{(\frac{100}{3})^2 + (\frac{160}{3})^2} $

                                   = 62.89 m/s

And direction is

tan θ = $ \frac{V_y}{V_x}$     = 1.6

therefore, $ \theta = \tan^{-1}1.6 $

                   = $ 58 ^{\circ}$  from x-axis

When you boil potatoes, will your cooking time be reduced with vigorously boiling water instead of gently boiling water? (Direct
lara [203]

Answer:

The cooling time will not be reduced.

Explanation:

The time to cook is virtually the same in both types, vigorously and gently boiling water.

The reason cooking of spaghetti  calls for vigorously boiling water is to keep the pasta agitated so that they do not stick to one another.

The temperature of boiling water is the same for both vigorously boiling water and gently boiling water, therefore there will be little time difference in when the potatoes will cook when it is done with vigorously boiling water than when it is cooked with gently boiling water.

However cooking potatoes in vigorously boiling water may cause the water to dry up on time and the potatoes get burnt.

Q:
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

We will use the KE equation you wrote here and fill in what we are given:

36=\frac{1}{2}m(12)^2 and isolating the m:

m=\frac{2(36)}{12^2} which gives us

m = .50 kg
