The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

The question can be solved, using Newton's second law of motion.

Note: Momentum of the cannon = momentum of the cannonball.

<h3>Formula:</h3>
  • MV = mv................. Equation 1

<h3>Where:</h3>
  • M = mass of the cannon
  • m = mass of the cannonball
  • V = velocity of the cannon
  • v = velocity of the cannonball

Make v the subject of the equation.

  • v = MV/m................ Equation 2

From the question,

<h3>Given: </h3>
  • M = 500 kg
  • V = 3 m/s
  • m = 10 kg.

Substitute these values into equation 2.

  • v = (500×3)/10
  • v = 150 m/s.

 

Hence, The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

In an atomic clock there are approximately 9.193 × 109oscillations of the specified light emitted by cesium-133 atoms. The text
Aleks [24]

Explanation:

6000 years = 6000 x 365 x 24 x 60 x 60

= 1.892 x 10¹¹ second

 gain is 1 second

1 second is equivalent to 9.193 × 10⁹ oscillations .

In 1.892 x 10¹¹ second ,  change in oscillation is 9.193 × 10⁹ oscillation

in one second change in oscillation = (9.193 / 1.892 ) x 10⁹⁻¹¹

=  4.859 x 10⁻² oscillations .

A student grabs a piece of paper and tears it from the middle. Which statement best explains the forces involved?
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

b. The normal force between the molecules of the paper is overcome by the contact force of the hands.

Explanation:

The paper molecules are held together by a weak bond. When the student holds the paper on both sides with the center of the paper in between, the student applies two equal forces in the opposite direction of the paper making the paper molecules weaken and separate.
