Answer:

the potential energy is 114 J.

Explanation:

Given;

total mechanical energy, E = 400 J

kinetic energy, K.E = 286 J

The potential energy is calculated as follows;

E = K.E +  P.E

where;

P.E is the potential energy

P.E = E - K.E

P.E = 400 J - 286 J

P.E = 114 J

Therefore, the potential energy is 114 J.

A 58 g firecracker is at rest at the origin when it explodes into three pieces. The first, with mass 12 g , moves along the x ax
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of momentum law in vector form to solve the problem .

Initial momentum = 0

momentum of 12 g piece

= .012 x 37 i since it moves along x axis .

= .444 i

momentum of 22 g

= .022 x 34 j

= .748 j

Let momentum of third piece = p

total momentum

= p + .444 i + .748 j

so

applying conservation law of momentum

p + .444 i + .748 j  = 0

p = - .444 i -  .748 j  

magnitude of p

= √ ( .444² + .748² )

= .87 kg m /s

mass of third piece = 58 - ( 12 + 22 )

= 24 g = .024 kg

if v be its velocity

.024 v = .87

v = 36.25 m / s .
