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 .

The current through an inductor of inductance L is given by I(t) = Imax sin(ωt).
sammy [17]

Answer:

(a) emf_L=-LI_{max}\omega cos(\omega t)

(b) neither increasing or decreasing

(c) opposite to the flow of charge carriers

Explanation:

The current through an inductor of inductance L is given by:

I(t)=I_{max}sin(\omega t)   (1)

(a) The induced emf is given by the following formula

emf_L=-L\frac{dI}{dt}    (2)

You derivative the expression (1) in the expression (2):

emf_L=-L\frac{d}{dt}(I_{max}sin(\omega t))\\\\emf_L=-LI_{max}\omega cos(\omega t)

(b) At t=0 the current is zero

(c) At t = 0 the emf is:

emf_L=-\omega LI_{max}

w, L and Imax have positive values, then the emf is negative. Hence, the induced emf is opposite to the flow of the charge carriers.

(d) read the text carefully

A car is driving 55 miles per hour east. The car changes direction to head north but still travels at 55 miles per hour. Which i
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Just as distance and displacement have distinctly different meanings (despite their similarities), so do speed and velocity. Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to "how fast an object is moving." Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. A fast-moving object has a high speed and covers a relatively large distance in a short amount of time. Contrast this to a slow-moving object that has a low speed; it covers a relatively small amount of distance in the same amount of time. An object with no movement at all has a zero speed.

What assumption can be made about the densities of two different spheres that have
Triss [41]

Answer:

Their densities are different as well

Explanation:

Density is worked out by dividing mass by volume. If the mass was the same then the densities would be as well. But it's not.
