Answer:

The final components of velocity of the composite object is 3.33 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first object, m₁ = 3.35 kg

initial velocity of the first object, u₁ = 4.90 m/s in positive x-direction

mass of the second object, m₂ = 1.88 kg

initial velocity of the second object, u₂ = 3.12 m/s in negative y-direction

initial momentum of the first object, P₁ = 3.35 x 4.9 = 16.415 kgm/s

initial momentum of the second object, P₂ = 1.88 x 3.12 = 5.8656 kgm/s

The resultant velocity of the two objects is given by;

R² = 16.415² + 5.8656²

R² = 303.858

R = √303.858

R = 17.432 kgm/s

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision;

total initial momentum before = total final momentum after collision

P₁(x) + P₂(y) = Pf

R = Pf

R = v(m₁ + m₂)

17.432 = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final components of velocity of the composite object

v = \frac{17.432}{m_1 + m_2} \\\\v = \frac{17.432}{3.35+1.88} \\\\v = 3.33 \ m/s

Therefore, the final components of velocity of the composite object is 3.33 m/s.

How high would the level be in a gasoline barometer at normal atmospheric pressure?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

h = 13.06 m

Explanation:

Given:

- Specific gravity of gasoline S.G = 0.739

- Density of water p_w = 997 kg/m^3

- The atmosphere pressure P_o = 101.325 KPa

- The change in height of the liquid is h m

Find:

How high would the level be in a gasoline barometer at normal atmospheric pressure?

Solution:

- When we consider a barometer setup. We dip the open mouth of an inverted test tube into a pool of fluid. Due to the pressure acting on the free surface of the pool, the fluid starts to rise into the test-tube to a height h.

- The relation with the pressure acting on the free surface and the height to which the fluid travels depends on the density of the fluid and gravitational acceleration as follows:

                                         P = S.G*p_w*g*h

Where,                              h = P / S.G*p_w*g

- Input the values given:

                                         h = 101.325 KPa / 0.739*9.81*997

                                         h = 13.06 m

- Hence, the gasoline will rise up to the height of 13.06 m under normal atmospheric conditions at sea level.

A satellite is revolving the earth 4km above the surface.find the orbital velocity of the satellite (R =6400km,g=9.8m/s^2)​
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

v ≈ 7900 m/s

Explanation:

centripetal force will equal gravity force

mv²/R = mg

v²/R = g

v² = Rg

v = √(Rg)

v = √(6.4e6(9.8))

v = 7.91959...e+3

v ≈ 7900 m/s

of course, at those velocities and that deep into the atmosphere, the satellite would quickly burn up, slow down, and cause tremendous damage to buildings etc. with the sonic boom shock wave. It would also have to avoid a lot of mountains as 4000 m is not that high.
