You and a friend each hold a lump of wet clay. Each lump has a mass of 25 grams. You each toss your lump of clay into the air, w

here the lumps collide and stick together. Just before the impact, the velocity of one lump was < 4, 4, -3 > m/s, and the velocity of the other lump was < -2, 0, -7 > m/s.
What was the the total momentum of the lumps just before the impact?
p(total) = ____kg·m/s.
What is the momentum of the stuck-together lump just after the collision?
p = ____kg·m/s.

Answer:

a) p(total) = <0.05, 0.1, 0.1 > kg m/s

b) p = <0.05, 0.1, 0.1 > kg.m/s

c) v_f = < 1, 2, 2 > m/s

Explanation:

a.)

Mass of each lump = 25 g = 0.025 kg

Velocity of lump 1 = < -2, 0, -7 > m/s

Momentum of lump 1 = Mass×Velocity

                                   = 0.025×< -2, 0, -7 >

                                   = < -0.05, 0, 0.175> kg m/s

Velocity of lump 2 = < 4, 4, -3 > m/s

Momentum of lump 2 = Mass×Velocity

                                    = 0.025×< 4, 4, -3 >

                                    = < 0.1, 0.1, -0.075> kg m/s

Total momentum before impact  =  < -0.05,  0,  0.175 > + < 0.1, 0.1, -0.075>

                                                      = < 0.05, 0.1, 0.1 > kg m/s

⇒p(total) = <0.05, 0.1, 0.1 > kg m/s

b)

As we know that,

By the law of conservation of linear momentum,

The total momentum will be the same before and after the collision.

⇒Momentum of the stuck together  after the collision = Total momentum of the lumps just before impact.

⇒ p = <0.05, 0.1, 0.1 > kg m/s

c)

Let the final velocity =  v_f

Total mass = 0.025 + 0.025 = 0.05 kg

As

Momentum = mass ×velocity

⇒ <0.05, 0.1, 0.1 > = 0.05 ×v_f

⇒ v_f = <0.05, 0.1, 0.1 > / 0.05

          = < 1, 2, 2 > m/s

⇒v_f = < 1, 2, 2 > m/s

You need to determine the density of a ceramic statue. If you suspend it from a spring scale, the scale reads 28.4 NN . If you t
shtirl [24]

Answer:

2491.23 kg/m³

Explanation:

From Archimedes principle,

R.d = weight of object in air/ upthrust in water = density of the object/density of water

⇒ W/U = D/D' ....................... Equation 1

Where W = weight of the ceramic statue, U = upthrust of the ceramic statue in water, D = density of the ceramic statue, D' = density of water.

Making D the subject of the equation,

D = D'(W/U).................... Equation 2

Given: W = 28.4 N, U = lost in weight = weight in air- weight in water

U = 28.4 - 17.0 = 11.4 N,

Constant: D' = 1000 kg/m³.

Substitute into equation 2,

D = 100(28.4/11.4)

D = 2491.23 kg/m³

Hence the density of the ceramic statue = 2491.23 kg/m³

Lenz's Law: A coil lies flat on a tabletop in a region where the magnetic field vector points straight up. The magnetic field va
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnetic field is straight up. It is reducing . As per Lenz's law , direction of induced current is such that it opposes the reason which creates it . magnetic field in upper direction is reducing . So current will be such that magnetic field produced by it increases magnetic field in upper direction . In other words , induced current should create magnetic field in upward direction. It is possible when direction of induced current is  anti - clockwise,  when seen from above.

All fires require oxygen () There is no oxygen in that room (T) .
Marina CMI [18]

The sentences are invalid and unsound.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The fire is defined as the vigorous oxidation of a substance. Now oxidation can occur in presence of any oxidising agent. Like magnesium in presence of nitrogen in high temperature with a dazzling brownish flame to produce magnesium nitride. So fire can be produced in absence of oxygen.

Oxygen is present everywhere in world. So production of a whole room without oxygen is very tough to produce and costly process. So its very unsound.
