Answer:

v = 24 m/s, rightwards

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of TBT explosive = 5 kg

It explodes into two pieces.

One of the pieces weighing 2.0 kg flies off to the left at 36 m/s. Let left be negative and right be positive.

The law of conservation of momentum holds here. Let v be the final speed of the remaining piece. So,

$5\times 0=2\times (-36)+3\times v\\\\-72=-3v\\\\v=24\ m/s$

So, the final speed of the remaining piece is 24 m/s and it is in the right direction.

In which
ΔL = change in length, α = Linear expansion coefficient of steel, ΔT = change in temperature, L = original length

Therefore,
ΔL = 12*10^-6*(18.5-(-3))*1410 = 0.36378 m

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

$x=22.65m$

Explanation:

We have an uniformly accelerated motion, with a negative acceleration. Thus, we use the kinematic equations to calculate the distance will it take to bring the car to a stop:

$v_f^2=v_0^2-2ax\\\frac{0^2-v_0^2}{-2a}=x\\x=\frac{v_0^2}{2a}$

The acceleration can be calculated using Newton's second law:

$\sum F_x:F_f=ma\\\sum F_y:N=mg$

Recall that the maximum force of friction is defined as $F_f=\mu N$ . So, replacing this:

$\mu N=ma\\\mu mg=ma\\a=\mu g\\a=0.901(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\a=8.83\frac{m}{s^2}$

Now, we calculate the distance:

$x=\frac{v_0^2}{2a}\\x=\frac{(20\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(8.83\frac{m}{s^2})}\\x=22.65m$

KIM [24]

The work performed on an object is the force multiplied by the distance it is moved, provided the movement is parallel to the force. Since that is the case here, we can get the work by W=Fd=1900N x 0.23m = 437J. This energy is used to split the wood.
