Answer:
a) amount of kinetic energy converted to internal energy = 2.5 x 10 raised to power 7 Joule
b) Kinetic energy gained by the earth = 2.1 x 10-16J
c) All the kinetic energy is converted to internal energy and the energy is further converted to thermal energy hence the reason for the hotness at around where the meteorite strikes.
Explanation:
The detailed steps and appropriate application of the law of conservation of momentum is as shown in the attached file.
Answer:
a) v₃ = 19.54 km, b) 70.2º north-west
Explanation:
This is a vector exercise, the best way to solve it is finding the components of each vector and doing the addition
vector 1 moves 26 km northeast
let's use trigonometry to find its components
cos 45 = x₁ / V₁
sin 45 = y₁ / V₁
x₁ = v₁ cos 45
y₁ = v₁ sin 45
x₁ = 26 cos 45
y₁ = 26 sin 45
x₁ = 18.38 km
y₁ = 18.38 km
Vector 2 moves 45 km north
y₂ = 45 km
Unknown 3 vector
x3 =?
y3 =?
Vector Resulting 70 km north of the starting point
R_y = 70 km
we make the sum on each axis
X axis
Rₓ = x₁ + x₃
x₃ = Rₓ -x₁
x₃ = 0 - 18.38
x₃ = -18.38 km
Y Axis
R_y = y₁ + y₂ + y₃
y₃ = R_y - y₁ -y₂
y₃ = 70 -18.38 - 45
y₃ = 6.62 km
the vector of the third leg of the journey is
v₃ = (-18.38 i ^ +6.62 j^ ) km
let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length
v₃ = √ (18.38² + 6.62²)
v₃ = 19.54 km
to find the angle let's use trigonometry
tan θ = y₃ / x₃
θ = tan⁻¹ (y₃ / x₃)
θ = tan⁻¹ (6.62 / (- 18.38))
θ = -19.8º
with respect to the x axis, if we measure this angle from the positive side of the x axis it is
θ’= 180 -19.8
θ’= 160.19º
I mean the address is
θ’’ = 90-19.8
θ = 70.2º
70.2º north-west
Answer:
A. Increase in temperature is 0.0176 degree Celsius. b. the remaining energy will be lost.
Explanation:
The mass of copper block = 7kg
Initial speed = 4.0 m/s
Specific heat of copper = 0.385 j/g degree Celcius.
a. The increase in temperature is calculated below:

85% of energy is converted into internal energy.

b. The remaining 15 per cent of kinetic energy will be lost and it will be changed into other forms.
Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time. The change in velocity is -30m/s and time is 5s. If you divide -30m/s by 5s, you get -6m/s<span>².</span>
