losion, it breaks into three parts. One part, with a mass of 7.8 kg, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 180 m/s in the positive y direction. A second part, with a mass of 8.8 kg, moves in the negative x direction with a speed of 640 m/s. What are the (a) x-component and (b) y-component of the velocity of the third part

Answer:

a.) 1567.2 m/s

b.) 149.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal explosion, it breaks into three parts. One part, with a mass of 7.8 kg, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 180 m/s in the positive y direction. A second part, with a mass of 8.8 kg, moves in the negative x direction with a speed of 640 m/s.

The x-component of the third part can be calculated by assuming that it moves in a positive x axis.

The third mass = 26 - ( 7.8 + 8.8)

The third mass = 26 - 16.6

The third mass = 9.4kg

since momentum is conserved, the momentum before explosion will be equal to sum of the momentum after explosion

26 x 350 = -8.8 x 640 + 9.4V

9100 = -5632 + 9.4V

9.4V = 9100 + 5632

9.4V = 14732

V = 14732/9.4

V = 1567.2 m/s

(b) y-component of the velocity of the third part will be

7.8 x 180 = 9.4 V

1404 = 9.4V

V = 1404/9.4

V = 149.4 m/s

A crate on a motorized cart starts from rest and moves with a constant eastward acceleration ofa= 2.60 m/s^2. A worker assists t
Leona [35]

Answer:

To obtain the power, we first need to find the work made by the force.

1) To calculate the work, we need the next equation:

\int\limits {F} \, dx

So the force is given by the problem so our mission is to find 'dx' in terms of 't'

2) we know that:

\frac{dV}{dt} = a = 2.6

So we have:

v = 2.6t

Then:

\frac{dx}{dt} = V = 2.6t\\ \\dx = 2.6t*dt

3) Finally, we replace everything:

\int\limits^{4.7}_{0} {5.4t*2.6t} \, dt

After some calculation, we have as a result that the work is:

161.9638 J.

4) To calculate the power we need the next equation:

P = \frac{W}{t}

So

P = 161.9638/4.7 = 34.46 W
