A firecracker breaks up into two pieces, one of which has a mass of 200 g and flies off along the x-axis with a speed of 82.0 m/

s. The second piece has a mass of 300 g and flies off along the y-axis with a speed of 45.0 m/s. What is the total momentum of the two pieces?

Answer:

Total momentum, p = 21.24 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of first piece, $m_1=200\ g= 0.2\ kg$

Mass of the second piece, $m_2=300\ g= 0.3\ kg$

Speed of the first piece, $v_1=82\ m/s$ (along x axis)

Speed of the second piece, $v_2=45\ m/s$ (along y axis)

To find,

The total momentum of the two pieces.

Solve,

The total momentum of two pieces is equal to the sum of momentum along x axis and along y axis.

$p_x=m_1v_1$

$p_x=0.2\ kg\times 82\ m/s$

$p_x=16.4\ kg-m/s$

$p_y=m_2v_2$

$p_y=0.3\ kg\times 45\ m/s$

$p_y=13.5\ kg-m/s$

The net momentum is given by :

$p=\sqrt{p_x^2+p_y^2}$

$p=\sqrt{16.4^2+13.5^2}$

p = 21.24 kg-m/s

Therefore, the total momentum of the two pieces is 21.24 kg-m/s.

A parallel-plate capacitor with a 4.9 mm plate separation is charged to 57 V . Part A With what kinetic energy, in eV, must a pr

Dovator [93]

Answer:

57 eV

Explanation:

$d$ = separation between the plates = 4.9 mm = 0.0049 m

$\Delta V$ = Potential difference between the plates = 57 Volts

$q$ = magnitude of charge on proton = 1 e

$K$ = Kinetic energy of the proton

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy lost = Electric potential energy gained

$K = q \Delta V\\K = (1 e) (57 )\\K = 57 eV$

Bill drives and sees a red light. He slows down to a stop. A graph of his velocity over time is shown below.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

-2 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration is equal to the slope of the graph. You just find the slope of that section. The rise is -20 and the run is 10, so you get -2.

A circular saw blade with radius 0.175 m starts from rest and turns in a vertical plane with a constant angular acceleration of

ANEK [815]

Answer:

The distance the piece travel in horizontally axis is

L=3.55m

Explanation:

$a=2 \frac{rev}{s^{2}} \\h=0.820m\\r = 0.125 m
\\d=150rev$

$d= 155 rev = 155(2\pi ) = 310\pi rad$

$a= 2.0 \frac{rev}{s^{2} } = 2.0(2\pi ) = 4.0\pi \frac{rev}{s^{2} }$

$d=d_{i}+vo*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} \\ di=0\\vo=0\\d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2*d}{a}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2*310 rad}{4\frac{rad}{s^{2}}}} \\t=12.449$

$w=a*t\\w=4\frac{rad}{s^{2}}*12.449s\\ w=49.79 \frac{rad}{s}$

Now the angular velocity is the blade speed so:

$V=w*r\\V=49.79 \frac{rad}{s}*0.175m\\V=8.7 \frac{m}{s}$

assuming no air friction effects affect blade piece:

time for blade piece to fall to floor

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2*h}{g}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2*0.820m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} } }}\\t=0.409s$

Now is the same time the piece travel horizontally

$L=t*V\\L=0.409s*8.7\frac{m}{s}\\L=3.55m$

blade piece travels HORIZONTALLY = (24.5)(0.397) = 9.73 m ANS

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

a. directive zoning

Explanation:

Directive zoning is an instrument used in master plans, whereby the city is divided into areas on which differentiated land use and land use guidelines apply, especially urban indexes. Directive zoning acts primarily by controlling two main elements: the use and size (or size) of lots and buildings. It is therefore assumed that the end result achieved through individual actions is in line with the municipality's objectives, which include proportionality between occupation and infrastructure, the need to protect fragile areas and / or cultural interest, the harmony from the volumetric point of view, etc.
