When a 20 kg explosive detonates and sends a 5 kilogram piece traveling to the right at 105 m/s

Answer:

speed: 35m/s

direction: left

Explanation:

Assuming the right side is the positive direction:

before explosion:

P = mv = 0

after explosion:

P' = 15P + 5P

(Set the velocity of the 15kg piece after explosion as v1' and the velocity of the 5kg piece after explosion as v2')

P' = 0.75mv1' + 0.25mv2'

P' = (15kg)v' + (5kg)(105m/s)

P' = 525kg/m/s + (15kg)v1'

P = P'

525kg/m/s + (15kg)v1' = 0

(15kg)v1' = -525kg/m/s

v1' = -35m/s

<u>speed = |-35| = 35m/s</u>

<u>direction is to the left since the right side is the positive direction.</u>

Explanation:

a. Mechanical advantage = force out / force in

MA = 830 / 100

MA = 8.3

b. Efficiency = work out / work in

a 645 N person is wearing stiletto shoes. If she lifts her left leg, and rocks back onto the heel under her right leg, the press
fgiga [73]

Answer:

0.96cm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of person = 645N

Pressure of the heel = 9000000PA

Unknown

Diameter of the circular base = ?

Solution

Pressure is the force per unit area of a body.

  Pressure = \frac{Force}{Area}

To solve this problem, find the unknown area of the circle;

             Pressure x Area = Force

         Area     = \frac{Force}{Pressure}

           Area  = \frac{645}{9000000} = 7.17 x 10⁻⁵m²

Note: 1Pa = 1Nm⁻²

Now;

  Area of a circle = π r²

         r = \frac{d}{2}

    Area =  π x \frac{d^{2} }{4}

d is the diameter

                    d²  = 4 x Area  x (1/π)

                d² = 4 x 7.17 x 10⁻⁵ x  (1/3.14) = 9.13 x 10⁻⁵

              d = 0.0096m

To cm;

                100cm = 1m

   0.0096m; 0.0096 x 100=  0.96cm

Two particles of charge q1 and q2, respectively, move in the same direction in a magnetic field and experience the same magnetic
ohaa [14]

Answer:

|q1| / |q2| = 1/7

Explanation:

We are told that both particles are in the same magnetic field, B.

The charge of the first particle is q1

The charge of the second particle is q2

Let the speed of particle 1 be v1.

Let the speed of particle 2 be v2.

The magnetic force acting on particle 1 due to the magnetic field, B, is:

F1 = |q1| * v1 * B

The magnetic force acting on particle 2 due to the magnetic field, B, is:

F2 = |q2| * v2 * B

We are told that both particles experience the same magnetic force. This means that F1 = F2

Therefore:

|q1| * v1 * B = |q2| * v2 * B

=> |q1| * v1 = |q2| * v2

|q1| / |q2| = v2/v1

We are told that the speed of particle 1 is seven times that of particle 2. Hence:

v1 = 7 * v2

Hence:

|q1| / |q2| = v2 / (7 * v2)

|q1| / |q2| = 1/7

A hammer is thrown upward with a speed of 14 m/s on the surface of planet X where the acceleration due to gravity is 3.5 m/s2 an
Marina CMI [18]

Pretty simple

The no atmosphere says that theres no air resistance, making the problem 10 times easier.

If the hammer is thrown upwards, it has a positive inital velocity of 14m/s

Now gravity is trying to pull it downwards so the accelerating is -3.5m/s^2 (closest planet I can think off with this acceleration is Mercury, but thats besides the point)

Anyways we can use kinematic equations to solve that

Vf = vi + at

Vf = 14m/s +(-3.5)(8)

Vf = -14 m/s

So after 8 seconds the ball is going downwards at the same height that you threw it.

answer : -14m/s or you can say 14m/s downwards
