Answer:
, the minus meaning west.
Explanation:
We know that linear momentum must be conserved, so it will be the same before () and after (
) the explosion. We will take the east direction as positive.
Before the explosion we have .
After the explosion we have pieces 1 and 2, so .
These equations must be vectorial but since we look at the instants before and after the explosions and the bomb fragments in only 2 pieces the problem can be simplified in one dimension with direction east-west.
Since we know momentum must be conserved we have:
Which means (since we want and
):
So for our values we have:
Answer:
12.31 m/s
Explanation:
If we recall from the previous knowledge we had about speed,
we will know that:
speed = distance/ time.
As such:
The average speed of the rider bicycle is
average speed = total distance/ total time
Mathematically, it can be computed as:
