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:
The point of contact the path difference is zero but one of the interfering ray is reflected so the effective path difference becomes λ/2 thus the condition of minimum intensity is created in the center.
Answer:
F=ma is the relationship where, F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration.
Newton's second law states that the unbalanced force applied to the object accelerates the object which is directly proportional to the force and inversely to the mass.
If we apply force to a toy car then It will accelerate.
This is how Newton's second law of motion is verified.
First we gotta use an equation of motion:
Our vertical distance d= 100 m, initial vertical speed u = 0 m/s (because velocity is fully horizontal), and vertical acceleration a = 9.8 m/s2 because of gravity. Let's plug it all in!
Now we just need to solve for t:
Hit the calculators, and you'll get 4.5 seconds!
