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 .

A farmer hitches her tractor to a sled loaded with firewood and pulls it a distance
Delvig [45]

(a) The work done by the force applied by the tractor is 79,968.47 J.

(b) The work done by the frictional force on the tractor is 55,977.93 J.

(c) The total work done by  all the forces is 23,990.54 J.

<h3>Work done by the applied force</h3>

The work done by the force applied by the tractor is calculated as follows;

W = Fd cosθ

W = (5000 x 20) x cos(36.9)

W = 79,968.47 J

<h3>Work done by frictional force</h3>

W = Ffd cosθ

W = (3500 x 20) x cos(36.9)

W = 55,977.93 J

<h3>Net work done by all the forces on the tractor</h3>

W(net) = work done by applied force  -  work done by friction force

W(net) = 79,968.47 J -  55,977.93 J

W(net) = 23,990.54 J

A particle leaves the origin with a speed of 3.6 106 m/s at 34 degrees to the positive x axis. It moves in a uniform electric fi
Andrej [43]

Answer:

E = -4556.18 N/m

Explanation:

Given data

u = 3.6×10^6 m/sec

angle = 34°

distance x = 1.5 cm = 1.5×10^-2 m  (This data has been assumed not given in

Question)

from the projectile motion the horizontal distance traveled by electron is

x = u×cosA×t

⇒t = x/(u×cos A)

We also know that force in an electric field is given as

F = qE

q= charge , E= strength of electric field

By newton 2nd law of motion

ma = qE

⇒a = qE/m

Also, y = u×sinA×t - 0.5×a×t^2

⇒y = u×sinA×t - 0.5×(qE/m)×t^2

if y = 0 then

⇒t = 2mu×sinA/(qE) = x/(u×cosA)

Also, E = 2mu^2×sinA×cosA/(x×q)

Now plugging the values we get

E = 2×9.1×10^{-31}×3.6^2×10^{12}×(sin34°)×(cos34°)/(1.5×10^{-2}×(-1.6)×10^{-19})

E = -4556.18 N/m

A large raindrop-the type that lands with a definite splat-has a mass of 0.0014 g and hits your roof at a speed of 8.1 m/s. a. W
DENIUS [597]

Answer

given,

mass of the drop, m = 0.0014 g

speed of the drop, u = 8.1 m/s

a) Change in momentum is equal to impulse

   final velocity of the drop, v = 0 m/s

   J = m ( v - u )

   J = 0.0014 x 10⁻³ x ( 0 - 8.1 )

   J = -1.134 x 10⁻⁵ kg.m/s

impulse of the roof = - J = 1.134 x 10⁻⁵ kg.m/s

b) time, t = 0.37 m s

   impact of force = ?

  we know

     J = F x t

   1.134 x 10⁻⁵ = F x 0.37 x 10⁻³

     F =  0.031 N

the magnitude of the force of the impact is equal to F =  0.031 N
