Two asteroids identical to those above collide at right angles and stick together; i.e, their initial velocities were perpendicu

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

velocity = 62.89 m/s in 58 degree measured from the x-axis

Explanation:

Relevant information:

Before the collision, asteroid A of mass 1,000 kg moved at 100 m/s, and asteroid B of mass 2,000 kg moved at 80 m/s.

Two asteroids moving with velocities collide at right angles and stick together. Asteroid A initially moving to right direction and asteroid B initially move in the upward direction.

Before collision Momentum of A = 1000 x 100 = $10^5$ kg - m/s in the right direction.

Before collision Momentum of B = 2000 x 80 = 1.6 x $10^5$ kg - m/s in upward direction.

Mass of System of after collision = 1000 + 2000 = 3000 kg

Now applying the Momentum Conservation, we get

Initial momentum in right direction = final momentum in right direction = $10^5$

And, Initial momentum in upward direction = Final momentum in upward direction = 1.6 x $10^5$

So, $V_x = \frac{10^5}{3000}$ = $\frac{100}{3}$ m/s

and $V_y=\frac{160}{3}$ m/s

Therefore, velocity is = $\sqrt{V_x^2 + V_y^2}$

= $\sqrt{(\frac{100}{3})^2 + (\frac{160}{3})^2}$

= 62.89 m/s

And direction is

tan θ = $\frac{V_y}{V_x}$ = 1.6

therefore, $\theta = \tan^{-1}1.6$

= $58 ^{\circ}$ from x-axis

What does deposition mean in a sedimentary formation

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of that material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water. Deposition means that all the sediments, soil, and rocks are all compressed (tightly pressed into each other) and create sedimentary rocks.

I hope this helps! :)

Explain how electric currents flow only in closed circuits

Fed [463]

Answer:

The wires are connected to both terminals of the battery, so they form a closed loop. Most circuits have devices such as light bulbs that convert electrical energy to other forms of energy. ... When the switch is turned on, the circuit is closed and current can flow through it.
