Answer:

$v_2=-133.17m/s$ , the minus meaning west.

Explanation:

We know that linear momentum must be conserved, so it will be the same before ( $p_i$ ) and after ( $p_f$ ) the explosion. We will take the east direction as positive.

Before the explosion we have $p_i=m_iv_i=Mv_i$ .

After the explosion we have pieces 1 and 2, so $p_f=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$ .

These equations must be vectorial but since we look at the instants before and after the explosions and the bomb fragments in only 2 pieces the problem can be simplified in one dimension with direction east-west.

Since we know momentum must be conserved we have:

$Mv_i=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Which means (since we want $v_2$ and $M=m_1+m_2$ ):

$v_2=\frac{Mv_i-m_1v_1}{m_2}=\frac{Mv_i-m_1v_1}{M-m_1}$

So for our values we have:

$v_2=\frac{(145kg)(24m/s)-(115kg)(65m/s)}{(145kg-115kg)}=-133.17m/s$

Anna drives north at a speed of 50 km/h for the first hour. Then, she drives north for a second hour but slows down to 30 km/h.

8090 [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is A The distance is greater in the first hour because her speed is faster.

Explanation:

During the first hour, Anna is driving at a speed of 50 km/h. During the second hour, she is only driving at a speed of 30 km/h. The faster she goes, the farther she will go.

Hope this helps,

A space station has a large ring-like component that rotates to simulategravity for the crew. This ring has a massM= 2.1×105kg a

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Each thruster has to applied a force of 294.5N in tangential direction

Explanation:

Mass of the ring ,M =2.1×105kg

Mass of the ship ,m = 3.5×104kg

Radius of the ring R = 86.0 m

distance of ship from center of the ring, r =31.0 m

Let force applied by each thruster be F

Time taken to reach gravity ,t = 3hrs = 3600× 3 =10800sec

The movement of ring make the object kept at the edge feel a force of centrifuge in outward direction.

Centrifugal force = weight of the object on earth

Assume the ring is moving with angular speed ω

Centripetalforce of the object kept at ring

m₁R ω²=m₁g (m₁=mas of object)

⇒Rω² = g

⇒ω = √g/R

The ring start from 0 angular speed with constant angular acceleration

Let the constant angular acceleration be ∝

∝ = ω / t

(ω = √g/R)

∝ = $\frac{1}{t } \sqrt{\frac{g}{R} } }$

Consider Torque on the ring and ship system

T = FR + FR = 2FR

Moment of inertia of ring ship system

I = I(ring)+I(ship)+I(ship)

= MR² + mr² + mr² = MR² + 2mr²

angular acceleration of the ring ship system

∝ = $\frac{2FR}{MR^2 + 2mr^2}$

Now we have ,

∝ = $\frac{1}{t} \sqrt{\frac{g}{R} }$ , ∝ = $\frac{2FR}{MR^2+2mr^2}$

equating both values

We have,

$F = \frac{MR^2+2mr^2}{2Rt} \sqrt{\frac{g}{R} }$

where,

m = 2.1 × 10⁵kg, R = 86m, m = 3.5 × 10₄kg,

r = 31m, g = 9.8m/s² , t = 10800sec

$F = \frac{(2.1 \times 10^5 \times86^2)+(2\times3.5v10^4\times31^2) }{2\times86\times10800} \times\sqrt{\frac{9.8}{86} } \\\\F = 294.47N\\\approx294.5N$

Each thruster has to applied a force of 294.5N in tangential direction
