A candy-filled piñata is hung from a tree for Elia's birthday. During an unsuccessful attempt to break the 4.4-kg piñata, Tonja

smacks it with a 0.54-kg stick moving at 4.8 m/s. The stick stops and the piñata undergoes a gentle swinging motion. Determine the swing speed of the piñata immediately after being cracked by the stick

Answer: v = 0.6 m/s

Explanation: <u>Momentum</u> <u>Conservation</u> <u>Principle</u> states that for a collision between two objects in an isolated system, the total momentum of the objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the objects after the collision.

Momentum is calculated as Q = m.v

For the piñata problem:

Q_{i}=Q_{f}

m_{p}v_{p}_{i}+m_{s}v_{s}_{i}=m_{p}v_{p}_{f}+m_{s}v_{s}_{f}

Before the collision, the piñata is not moving, so v_{p}_{i}=0.

After the collision, the stick stops, so v_{s}_{f}=0.

Rearraging, we have:

m_{s}v_{s}_{i}=m_{p}v_{p}_{f}

v_{p}_{f}=\frac{m_{s}v_{s}_{i}}{m_{p}}

Substituting:

v_{p}_{f}=\frac{(0.54)(4.8)}{(4.4)}

v_{p}_{f}= 0.6

Immediately after being cracked by the stick, the piñata has a swing speed of 0.6 m/s.

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

7.39 m or 3.61 m

Explanation:

\lambda = Wavelength

f = Frequency = 90 Hz

v = Speed of sound = 340 m/s

Path difference of the two waves is given by

s_1-s_2=\frac{\lambda}{2}

Velocity of wave

v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{340}{90}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=3.78\ m

s_1=s_2\pm\frac{\lambda}{2}\\\Rightarrow s_1=5.5\pm \frac{3.78}{2}\\\Rightarrow s_1=7.39\ m, 3.61\ m

So, the location from the worker is 7.39 m or 3.61 m

Starting at t = 0 s , a horizontal net force F⃗ =( 0.285 N/s )ti^+(-0.460 N/s2 )t2j^ is applied to a box that has an initial mom
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that Impulse = force x time

impulse = change in momentum

change in momentum = force x time

Force F = .285 t -.46t²

Since force is variable

change in momentum = ∫ F dt  where F is force

= ∫ .285ti - .46t²j dt

= .285 t² / 2i - .46 t³ / 3 j

When t = 1.9

change in momentum = .285 x 1.9² /2 i  -  .46 x 1.9³ / 3 j

= .514i - 1.05 j

final momentum

= - 3.1 i + 3.9j +.514i - 1.05j

= - 2.586 i + 2.85j

x component = - 2.586

y component = 2.85

As you sit in a fishing boat, you noticed that 22 waves pass the boat every 60 seconds . If the distance from one crest to the n
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

0.1835m/s

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the speed of wave is expressed as;

v = fλ

f is the frequency - The number of oscillations completed in one seconds

If 22 waves pass the boat every 60 seconds,

number of wave that passes in 1 seconds = 22/60 = 0.367 waves

Therefore the frequency f of the wave is 0.367Hertz

λ (wavelength) is the distance between successive crest and trough of a wave

λ = 0.5m

Substitute the given values into the formula

v = fλ

v = 0.367 * 0.5

v = 0.1835

Hence the speed of the waves is 0.1835m/s
