Answer:
a) The x coordinate of the third mass is -1.562 meters.
b) The y coordinate of the third mass is -0.944 meters.
Explanation:
The center of mass of a system of particles (
), measured in meters, is defined by this weighted average:
(1)
Where:
- Mass of the i-th particle, measured in kilograms.
- Location of the i-th particle with respect to origin, measured in meters.
If we know that
,
,
,
,
and
, then the coordinates of the third particle are:




a) The x coordinate of the third mass is -1.562 meters.
b) The y coordinate of the third mass is -0.944 meters.
Answer:
v₀ = 292.3 m / s
Explanation:
Let's analyze the situation, on the one hand we have the shock between the bullet and the block that we can work with at the moment and another part where the assembly (bullet + block) compresses a spring, which we can work with mechanical energy, as the data they give us are Let's start with this second part.
We write the mechanical energy when the shock has passed the bodies
Em₀ = K = ½ (m + M) v²
We write the mechanical energy when the spring is in maximum compression
=
= ½ k x²
Em₀ = 
½ (m + M) v² = ½ k x²
Let's calculate the system speed
v = √ [k x² / (m + M)]
v = √[154 0.83² / (0.012 +0.104)
]
v = 30.24 m / s
This is the speed of the bullet + Block system
Now let's use the moment to solve the shock
Before the crash
p₀ = m v₀
After the crash
= (m + M) v
The system is formed by the bullet and block assembly, so the forces during the crash are internal and the moment is preserved
p₀ = 
m v₀ = (m + M) v
v₀ = v (m + M) / m
let's calculate
v₀ = 30.24 (0.012 +0.104) /0.012
v₀ = 292.3 m / s
Answer:
It would because the shape of the rocket is designed to be able to slice through the air as smooth as possible and now you may be thinking that air is already smooth but when you try to push something as large and heavy like a rocket then the shape of the rocket will be very important. The bottom of the rocket is flatter then the top so it is not designed to fly smoothly through the air. So the rocket would fall vertically downward(If it was still in one piece)because of it's shape. It is easier for the top of the rocket to go smoothly through the air then the bottom.

I am 90% sure this is correct but if I'm not please tell me
