Answer:

(A) 0.54 kg

(B) 15.5 m/s west

Explanation:

Mass is conserved.

M = m₁ + m₂

0.86 kg = 0.32 kg + m₂

m₂ = 0.54 kg

Momentum is conserved (take east to be positive).

Mv = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(0.86 kg)(-6 m/s) = (0.32 kg)(10 m/s) + (0.54 kg) v₂

v₂ = -15.5 m/s

A spring-mounted chair in which the astronaut sits, can be used to find the mass of an astronaut. The chair is then made to osci
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

M = 175 kg

Explanation:

In the resolution of the harmonic oscillator movement of a system and a mass with a spring, the angular velocity is

    w = √ k / m

Where k is the spring constant and m the mass

In this case the mass is the mass of the chair (m) plus the mass of the astronaut (M)

    M all = m + M

The angular velocity and the period are related by

    w = 2π / T

Substituting

   2π / T = √(k/(m + M))

We calculate the astronaut's mass

   4π² / T² = k / (m + M)

   M = k T² / 4π² - m

   M = 569 3.6² /(4π²) - 11

   M = 186.8 - 11

   M = 175 kg

How much energy must be removed from a 450 g block of ice to cool it from 0∘c to -20 ∘c?
frutty [35]
<span>The energy removed from a 450 g block of ice can only be done with a few options: a colder freezing facility, liquid nitrogen, or stopping the energy at all and adding dry ice for a brief period. The 450 g block should loose heat energy faster in a thermostat set at -20 degrees just to maintain the ice formation.</span>

Using the rotational equivalent of force:

Which is T = I*Alpha

Where: T is torque, I is the moment of inertia and Alpha is the angular acceleration. 

This is for the flywheel: J = 1/2mr^2 = 5*3^2 = 45 kgm^2 


From the equation: 


T = J*dω/dt 


we get: 


Δt = J*Δω/T = 45*8.13/110.0 = 3.326 sec

Actually according to physics there should be needed a force to move things but our mind does not produce a force ...Apart from myths ...is seems quite impossible to move a object with ur mind
