This problem has been solved! See the answer A 6.0 kg object, initially at rest in free space, "explodes" into three segments of

equal mass. Two of these segments are observed to be moving with equal speeds of 20 m/s with an angle of 60 degrees between their directions of motion. How much kinetic energy is released in this explosion?

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of each part = 6 / 3 = 2 kg .

momentum of each of given part = 2 x 20 = 40 kg m/s

Two momentum of 40 kg m/s , acting at angle 60 degree .

Resultant momentum =  2 x 40 cos 30 = 69.28 kg m/s

The third mass will have equal and opposite momentum to this momentum , following law of conservation of momentum .

If its velocity be v .

2 x v = 69.28

v = 34.64 m /s

Third mass will have velocity of 34.64 m /s

Total kinetic energy of all three mass

KE = 1/2 x 2 ( 20² + 20² + 34.64² )

= 400 + 400 + 1199.92

= 1999.93 J .

What is a characteristic of a gas?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Gases have three characteristic properties: 1. they are easy to compress, 2. they expand to fill their containers, and 3.they occupy far more space than the liquids or solids from which they form. Compressibility. An internal combustion engine provides a good example of the ease with which gases can be compressed.

a hockey player exerts a force of 5 N over a distance of 0.3 m on a hockey puck. How much work is done on the hockey puck
Katen [24]

Answer: W = 1.5 J

Explanation: Work is the product of force and distance. It can be expressed in the following formula W = Fd.

W = Fd

    = 5 N ( 0.3 M )

    = 1.5 J

What affect would using a 12V car battery have on the operation of your circuit? (Do not try this.) What would happen to the cur

Answer:

Incomplete question

This is the completed question

If the resistor in the circuit had a larger resistance then the current would be then have to be proportionally smaller. Because the batteries each give off 1.5 volts then the current would have to be the variable that would change. What affect would using a 12V car battery have on the operation of your circuit? (Do not try this.) What would happen to the current? What would happen to the resistor?

Explanation:

Using ohms law as our basis

Ohms law state that, the voltage in an ohmic conductor is directly proportional to the current

V∝I

Resistance is the constant of proportionality

Then

V=iR

Since we want a relationship between current and resistance.

then, I=V/R

So, current is inversely proportional to Resistance

as the current increase the resistance reduce and as the current reduces the resistance increases.

a. So, increasing the voltage from 1.5V to 12V increases the current In the circuit because voltage Is directly proportional to I.

From ohms law

V=iR

When v =1.5V

I=1.5/R

When V increase to 12V

I=12/R

I.e, it increases by a factor of 8. Eight times it's initial value

b. Now, the resistance in the circuit is the constant of proportionality and it doesn't change in a given circuit expect when using a variable resistoa r like rheostat.
