An explosion causes an object, initially at rest, to break into two pieces. One of these pieces has twice as much kinetic energy as the other. What is the ratio of their masses? Which one has the larger mass? Is it the one with the larger kinetic energy, or the one with the smaller kinetic energy?
a) Choose variable names for masses, velocities, momenta, and kinetic energies for the two objects which leave the explosion. Clearly list how you are labelling the object with the larger kinetic energy.
b) Does this system have a conserved mechanical energy? Why or why not?
c) Does this system have conserved momentum? Why or why not?
Please answer a-c
Most geologists believe that the dinosaurs became extinct 65 million years ago when a large comet or asteroid struck the earth, throwing up so much dust that the sun was blocked out for a period of many months. Suppose an asteroid with a diameter of 2.0 km and a mass of 1.0 x 1013 kg hits the earth with an impact speed of 4.0 x 104 m/s.a. What is the earth’s recoil speed after such a collision?(Use a reference frame in which the earth was initially at rest.)b. What percentage is this of the earth’s speed around the sun?(Use the astronomical data inside the back cover.)
