Answer:
Explanation:
Initial momentum is 1.5e6(3) = 4.5e6 kg•m/s
An impulse results in a change of momentum
The tug applied impulse is 12000(10) = 120000 N•s or 0.12e6 kg•m/s
The remaining momentum is 4.5e6 - 0.12e6 = 4.38e6 kg•m/s
The barge velocity is now 4.38e6 / 1.5e6 = 2.92 m/s
The tug applies 0.012e6 N•s of impulse each second.
The initial barge momentum will be zero in
t = 4.5e6 / 0.012e6 = 375 s or 6 minutes and 15 seconds
To stop the barge in one minute(60 s), the tug would have to apply
4.5e6 / 60 = 75000 N•s /s or 75 000 N
Answer:
option (b) 4900 N
Explanation:
m = 2000 kg, R = 6380 km = 6380 x 10^3 m, Me = 5.98 x 10^24 kg, h = R
F = G Me x m / (R + h)^2
F = G Me x m / 2R^2
F = 6.67 x 10^-11 x 5.98 x 10^24 x 2000 / (2 x 6380 x 10^3)^2
F = 4900 N
The question is incomplete. The mass of the object is 10 gram and travelling at a speed of 2 m/s.
Solution:
It is given that mass of object before explosion is,m = 10 g
Speed of object before explosion, v = 2 m/s
Let 
be the masses of the three fragments.
Let 
be the velocities of the three fragments.
Therefore, according to the law of conservation of momentum,
So the x- component of the velocity of the m2 fragment after the explosion is,
∴
