PHYSICS HELP IN PROJECTILE!!!?
1) A 206kg projectile, fired with a speed of 148m/s at a 67.0 degree angle, breaks into three pieces of equal mass at the highest point of its arc (where its velocity is horizontal). Two of the fragments move with the same speed right after the explosion as the entire projectile had just before the explosion; one of these moves vertically downward and the other horizontally.
A) Determine the magnitude of the velocity of the third fragment immediately after the explosion. ANSWER IN M/S
B) Determine the direction of the velocity of the third fragment immediately after the explosion.
PLEASE ANSWER DEGREE ABOVE THE HORIZONTAL.
C) Determine the energy released in the explosion. ANSWER IN J.

1 AnswerPhysics9 years agoConfusing Physics Please Help Dr. A or someone else!!?
The small mass sliding without friction along the looped track shown in the figure, http://session.masteringphysics.com/problemAsset/1... (it's not a Roller coaster and my picture has the end being flat) is to remain on the track at all times, even at the very top of the loop of radius r.
a) In terms of the given quantities, determine the minimum release height h.
b) If the actual release height is 5h, calculate the normal force exerted by the track at the bottom of the loop.
c) If the actual release height is 3h, calculate the normal force exerted by the track at the top of the loop.
d) If the actual release height is 3h, calculate the normal force exerted by the track after the block exits the loop onto the flat section.
The answer for a) Please answer with units. The answer for b) wants it in terms of mg.
