Two asteroids collide and stick together. The first asteroid has a mass of 15\times 10^3\,\mathrm{kg}15×10 3 kg and is initially

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Final speed is 900.06 m/s at $0.2215^{\circ}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the first asteroid, m = $15\times 10^{3}\kg$

Mass of the second asteroid, m' = $20\times 10^{3}\kg$

Initial velocity of the first asteroid, v = 770 m/s

Initial velocity of the second asteroid, v' = 1020 m/s

Angle between the two initial velocities, $\theta = 20^{\circ}$

Now,

Since, the velocities and hence momentum are vector quantities, then by the triangle law of vector addition of 2 vectors A and B, the resultant is given by:

$\vec{R} = \sqrt{A^{2} + 2ABcos\theta + B^{2}}$

Thus applying vector addition and momentum conservation, the final velocity is given by:

$(m + m')v_{final} = \sqrt{(mv)^{2} + 2(mv)(m'v')cos20^{\circ} + (m'v')^{2}}$ (1)

Now,

$(m +m')v_{final} = (35\times 10^{3})v_{final}$

$(mv)^{2} = (15\times 10^{3}\times 770)^{2} = 1.334\times 10^{14}$

$(m'v')^{2} = (20\times 10^{3}\times 1020)^{2} = 4.16\times 10^{14}$

$2(mv)(m'v')cos20^{\circ} = 2(15\times 10^{3}\times 770)(20\times 10^{3}\times 1020)cos20^{\circ} = 4.43\times 10^{14}$

Now, substituting the suitable values in eqn (1), we get:

$v_{final} = 900.06\ m/s$

Now, the direction for the two vectors is given by:

$\theta = sin^{- 1} \frac{m'v'sin20^{\circ}}{(m + m')v_{final}}$

$\theta = sin^{- 1} \frac{20\times 10^{3}\times 1020sin20^{\circ}}{(35\times 10^{3})\times 900.06} = 0.2215^{\circ}$

List 3 things that magnetism and static electricity have in common

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

1. Static electricity has two charges magnetism has two poles.

2. Same charges and same poles repel and opposite charges and poles attract.

3. Static electricity is produced by charges(at rest) Magnetism is produced by charges(moving with uniform speed)

How long does it take for a 4 inch candle to burn out

kotykmax [81]

What does "a 4-inch candle" mean ?
Is that the length of the candle or its diameter ?

The life of a candle depends on its length, its diameter, the
thickness and starting-length of its wick, the exact substance
of which it's composed ... the type of wax ... and the motions
of the air around it.

I'll always remember the candle shop I visited ... I don't remember
what I was doing in a candle shop, but I was there. There was a
little wax turkey up on a glass shelf, with a tiny tiny flame in the
middle of its back, so tiny that you could easily miss noticing it.
The little sign standing next to the little turkey on the shelf explained
that this was a Thanksgiving candle ... it was lit last Thanksgiving,
and would continue burning until NEXT Thanksgiving, roughly a year later !
