Hang two sheets of paper vertically from adjacent corners. The sheets should be parallel and close to each other with a small ga

p between them. Now gently blow down between the two sheets. What happens?

Answer:

The sheets move toward each other and the gap narrows                      

Explanation:

          When two sheets are arranged or hanged in such a way, there is a small gap in between the two parallelly hanging sheets. This gap is filled by the surrounding air.

          Now if we blow gently in between the gap of the two sheets, we will observe that the two sheets move towards each other and will come closer thereby narrowing the gap in between them.  

          This is because as we blow through the gap, partial vacuum is created in between the sheet for a short time. So this vacuum is filled by the air surrounding the two sheets thereby forcing the two sheets closer.

What is the momentum of an object in splace
forsale [732]

Answer:

The total momentum of the universe is always the same and is equal to zero. The total momentum of an isolated system never changes. Momentum can be transferred from one body to another.

Momentum quantifies how likely an object is to stay in motion. Momentum can also be explained using the equation, p=mv, where p is equal to momentum, m is equal to mass, and v is equal to velocity.

Explain how electric currents flow only in closed circuits​
Fed [463]

Answer:

The wires are connected to both terminals of the battery, so they form a closed loop. Most circuits have devices such as light bulbs that convert electrical energy to other forms of energy. ... When the switch is turned on, the circuit is closed and current can flow through it.

V^2=u^2 +2aS
U is found first by considering that first 8 secs and using v=u+at. {different v and u though}

V=-u+gt.
Magnitude of u = magnitude of v if there is no resistance ( because the conservation of energy says the k. E. must be the same when it passes you as when it left your hand).... up is negative here, down is positive.
V+v=gt
2v= g x 8
V=4xg.= the initial velocity for the next calculation
V^2=(4g)^2+(2xgx21)

So v can be calculated.
