An unstable nucleus of mass 1.7 ✕ 10⁻²⁶ kg, initially at rest at the origin of a coordinate system, disintegrates into three particles. One particle, having a mass of

m₁ = 1.8 ✕ 10⁻²⁷ kg,

moves in the positive y-direction with speed

v₁ = 5.4 ✕ 10⁶ m/s.

Another particle, of mass

m₂ = 8.0 ✕ 10⁻²⁷ kg,

moves in the positive x-direction with speed

v₂ = 3.2 ✕ 10⁶ m/s.

Find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the third particle. (Assume that the +x-axis is to the right and the +y-axis is up along the page.)

A guy was dumped by his girlfriend and wants to jump off from a building 200 ft high. What is the required velocity he must start in order to touch down on her new boyfriend who stands on the ground, 30ft from the building. a) if he jumped out horizontally b)the guy jumped down with a depression angle of 30 degrees. Find the impact velocity and speed. Does he have any chance?

My question is would this lab procedure be a valid method of calculating the coefficient of static friction when you are only allowed to make measurements of distance and not of mass. What steps should I add or change?

Lab Objective: Find the coefficient of static friction between a CPO sled and a smart track by only measuring the distance.

1. Angle the straight track so that it acts as a ramp

2. Draw the freebody diagram of the sled on the straight track showing a normal force perpendicular to the ramp surface

3. Break the horizontal and vertical forces into their x and y components and sum them together. Make sure to break the force of gravity apart into its x and y components, applying Newtons’s 2nd law equations to establish relationships between gravity, Fn, and static friction. The x and y components of gravity are the normal force as its y component, Fg (y) = Fn = mgcosθ and F g (x) = mgsinθ as the x component.

4. Measure the horizontal and vertical distances of the ramp by using a meterstick.

5. Calculate the angle at the horizontal (angle of incline) by using inverse tan(height of ramp /base length).

6. Calculate the tangent of the angle of incline using the equation of tanθ=sin θ/cos(θ). The coefficient of static friction is tangent to the angle at which the sled slides.

Problem 1 [6] Compute the eigenvalues of Hˆ = pˆ 2 2m + 1 2 mΩ 2xˆ 2 + λxˆ using two different methods: 1. Complete the square in 1 2mΩ 2x 2+λx (that is, write the term as 1 2mΩ 2 (x− x0) 2+C with suitable constants x0 and C) and use the exact eigenvalues En = (n+ 1 2 )¯hω of a harmonic oscillator with potential V (x) = 1 2mω2x 2 . 2. Apply second-order perturbation theory in λ

Problem 2 [2] Compute the eigenvalues of the matrix Hˆ = 2 λ λ 3 − 2λ ! and Taylor expand them to second order in the real number λ
