Answer:
A) 21.2 kg.m/s at 39.5 degrees from the x-axis
Explanation:
Mass of the smaller piece = 200g = 200/1000 = 0.2 kg
Mass of the bigger piece = 300g = 300/1000 = 0.3 kg
Velocity of the small piece = 82 m/s
Velocity of the bigger piece = 45 m/s
Final momentum of smaller piece = 0.2 × 82 = 16.4 kg.m/s
Final momentum of bigger piece = 0.3 × 45 = 13.5 kg.m/s
since they acted at 90oc to each other (x and y axis) and also momentum is vector quantity; then we can use Pythagoras theorems
Resultant momentum² = 16.4² + 13.5² = 451.21
Resultant momentum = √451.21 = 21.2 kg.m/s at angle 39.5 degrees to the x-axis ( tan^-1 (13.5 / 16.4)
Strength: able to detect planets in a wide range of orbits, as long as orbits aren't face on
Limitations: yield only planet's mass and orbital properties
Answer:
conduction
Explanation:
Conduction is a method of heat transfer, where two objects exchange heat by touching, but does not contribute to moving heat through earth's atmosphere, because the atmosphere is so sparse it does not transmit heat through conduction effectively. Insulation is not a method of heat transfer.
