<span>Assuming that the momenta of the two pieces are equal: when they have equal velocities, then
the masses of the two pieces are also equal.
Since there is no force from outside of the system, the center of mass moves on with the same velocity as before the equation. So the two pieces must fly at the side side of the mass center, i.e., they must always be at 90° to the side of the mass center. Otherwise it would not be the mass center, respectively the pieces would not have equal velocities.
This is only possible, when the angle of their velocity with the initial direction is 60°.
Because, cos (60°) = 1/2 = v/(2v).</span>
<span>The answers are as follows:
(a) how many meters are there in 11.0 light-years?
11.0 light years ( 365 days / 1 year ) ( 24 h / 1 day ) ( 60 min / 1 h ) ( 60 s / 1 min ) ( 2.998x10^8 m/s ) = 1.04x10^17 m
(b) an astronomical unit (au) is the average distance from the sun to earth, 1.50 × 108 km. how many au are there in 11.0 light-years?
1.04x10^17 m ( 1 au / </span>1.50 × 10^8 km <span>) ( 1 km / 1000 m) = 693329.472 au
(c) what is the speed of light in au/h? au/h
</span>2.998 × 10^8 m/s ( 1 au / 1.50 × 10^8 km ) ( 1 km / 1000 m) ( 3600 s / 1 h ) = 7.1952 au/h
Complete question is;
A rocket ship starts from rest and turns on its forward booster rockets, causing it to have a constant acceleration of 4 m/s² rightward. After 3s, what will be the velocity of the rocket ship?
Answer:
v = 12 m/s
Explanation:
We are given;
Initial velocity; u = 0 m/s (because ship starts from rest)
Acceleration; a = 4 m/s²
Time; t = 3 s
To find velocity after 3 s, we will use Newton's first equation of motion;
v = u + at
v = 0 + (4 × 3)
v = 12 m/s
Answer:
atom -
the smallest particle of a chemical element that can exist.
atomic mass-
the quantity of matter contained in an atom of an element
atomic weight -
ratio of the average mass of a chemical element's atoms to some standard
protons-
stable subatomic particle that has a positive charge equal in magnitude to a unit of electron charge and a rest mass of 1.67262 × 10−27 kg
electrons-
a stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids
neutrons-
a subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen.
energy levels-
one of the stable states of constant energy that may be assumed by a physical system
[used especially of the quantum states of electrons in atoms and of nuclei. — called also energy state.]
Covalent bonds
the interatomic linkage that results from the sharing of an electron pair between two atoms.
ionic bonds
type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.
Valence electrons
a single electron or one of two or more electrons in the outer shell of an atom that is responsible for the chemical properties of the atom.
Lewis Dot Diagram
A way of representing atoms or molecules by showing electrons as dots surrounding the element symbol. One bond is represented as two electrons.
