What is velocity of third piece immediately after explosion

Reference no: EM13543601

A firecracker resting on a level street explodes into three pieces of equal mass. Immediately after the explosion, the first piece is moving north at 125 m/s, and the second piece is moving east at 75.0 m/sec. What is the velocity of the third piece immediately after the explosion?

What would its new rotation speed be : Suppose a star the size of our Sun (R0 = 695,500 km) rotates at a speed of 1.0 revolution every 12 days. If it were to undergo gravitational collapse to a neutron star of radius 11 km, what would its new rotation speed be? (rad/s)

What rate could work could be obtained-heat transfer : Air is flowing at steady state through a 5 cm diameter pipe at a flow rate of 0.35 mole/min at P = 5 bar and T = 500 K. It flows through a throttle valve and exits at 1 bar.

What is the angular acceleration of the cylinder : Water is drawn from a well in a bucket tied to the end of a rope whose other end wraps around a solid cylinder of mass 50 kg and diameter 25 cm. As this cylinder is turned with a crank, the rope raises the bucket.

Same direction as the projectile prior to its explosion : A projectile of mass m is fired from the ground with an initial speed vi at an angle of q above the horizontal. At the highest point of its arc, it explodes into three pieces, A, B and C, all of equal mass. Immediately after the explosion, pieces A a..

Required of the force the motor exerts on cab via cable : A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1100 kg, which is required to travel upward 49 m in 3.9 min, starting and ending at rest. The elevator's counterweight has a mass of only 830 kg, so the elevator motor must h..

Can be used to measure the speed of a bullet : The figure shows a device that can be used to measure the speed of a bullet. The device consists of two rotating disks, separated by a distance of d = 0.877 m, and rotating with an angular speed of 88.6 rad/s. The bullet first passes through the left..
