Answer:
v = 24 m/s, rightwards
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of TBT explosive = 5 kg
It explodes into two pieces.
One of the pieces weighing 2.0 kg flies off to the left at 36 m/s. Let left be negative and right be positive.
The law of conservation of momentum holds here. Let v be the final speed of the remaining piece. So,
So, the final speed of the remaining piece is 24 m/s and it is in the right direction.
(a)
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Moment of Inertia of m₁ about the axis, I₁ = m₁x²
Moment of Inertia of m₂ about the axis. I₂ = m₂ (L - x)²
Kinetic energy is rotational.
Total kinetic energy is
Work done is change in kinetic energy.
To minimize E, differentiate wrt x and equate to zero.
Alternatively, work done is minimum when the axis passes through the center of mass.
Center of mass is at
