A arrow of mass 0.20 kg is shot at 32.2 m/s. It hits an apple (m = 0.77 kg), and goes through the apple, leaving with a velocity of 18.3 m/s. What is the velocity of the apple after the arrow leaves it?

answer in m/s

The apple travels at 3.6 m/s

Explanation:

The Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum

The total momentum of a system of bodies is conserved unless an external force is applied to it.

The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and speed v is:

P = mv

If we have a system of two bodies the total momentum is the sum of the individual momentums:

If a collision occurs and the velocities change to v', the final momentum is:

Since the total momentum is conserved, then:

P = P'

Or, equivalently:

Solving for v2':

The arrow has a mass of m1=0.2 kg and travels at v1=32.2 m/s. It hits an apple (assumed stationary at v2=0) of mass m2=0.77 kg and continues through the apple with a speed of v1'=18.3 m/s. We'll calculate the speed of the apple after the hit.

The apple travels at 3.6 m/s

uranium fissions/breaks up giving out energy and neutrons

i really dont know but i will try okay.

so i think u would just add all them up and get your answer..
