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

Please help me with a speech.The topic of my speech is Passion.​
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Passion

For me, standing on the summit of Mt Everest was the result of following a process. The process of mountaineering. I love mountaineering. I am passionate about it. I love the months of planning for an expedition, the months of sweating and training to prepare my body physically. The meticulous preparation of my equipment. Most of all I love the huge mental challenge I have to overcome before each climb to confront my own fear. All these reasons are why I climb, they are why I climbed Mt Everest and that is why I continue to climb.

Passion is an enormously powerful force. It gives us the strength to get through hard times and setbacks. It gives us strength to overcome our fears, to ignore what other people think of us, to be disciplined and make sacrifices in pursuit of our dreams. Passionate people do not want to take shortcuts – they consider that ‘learning the process’ is an important part of the journey.

In mountaineering it’s easy to spot those who are not passionate about the process. They want to stand on top of the mountain but they are not really interested in the process of climbing the mountain. I feel for these people. Success without hard work is a hollow, empty feeling. They never last long in the sport.

Just as in life, successful mountaineers are the ones who are passionate. They are not there just to stand on the summit. Their passion gives them the energy to work the hardest, fight the longest, and in the words of Winston Churchill “never, never. never give-up”.

Calculate the wave length of a water wave with a speed of 20 m/s and a frequency of 2.5 Hz
12345 [234]

Wavelength of the water wave is 8 m

Explanation:

  • Wavelength measures the distance between two successive crests or troughs of the wave. It is given by the following equation

λ = v/f, where f is the frequency, v is the velocity of the wave

Here, v = 20 m/s and f = 2.5 Hz

⇒ λ = 20/2.5

      = 8 m
