A dinner plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide horizontally along the floor. Immediately after the impact, a 320-g piece moves along the x-axis with a speed of 2.00 m/s and a 355-g piece moves along the y-axis with a speed of 1.50 m/s. The third piece has a mass of 100 g. In what direction relative to the x-axis does the third piece move

8.3 m/s, 2196 degree from + X axis

Explanation:

m = 320 g , u = 2 m/s along X axis

m'  = 355 g, u' = 1.5 m/s along Y axis

m'' = 100 g, u'' = v

Let the speed of the third piece is v makes an angle A from the X axis.

use conservation of momentum along X axis

0 = 320 x 2 + 100 x v cos A

v cos A =  - 6.4 ..... (1)

Use conservation of momentum along Y axis

0 = 355 x 1.5 + 100 x v sin A

v sinA = - 5.3 ... (2)

Squaring and adding

The angle is given by

from + X axis

as a general rule, scissors have blades less than 6 in (15 cm) long and usually have handles with finger holes of the same size. shears have blades scissors used to cut hair or fabric must be much sharper
