Answer:

check the explanation

Explanation:

To find density you need mass and volume

to find mass use a digital balance and record it. Ex - 50g
to find the volume of the object
use a measuring cylinder and lets say you fill it up to 50cm³
then add the irregular object to the cylinder and record the new volume Ex - 54cm³
to find the volume of the object subract the final volume from the intial volume

54cm³-50cm³=4cm³

now that you have mass and volume use the equation D=M/V

Density = Mass = 50g = 12.5g/cm³
 Volume 4cm³

Someone drops a brick on a 2.6 kg cart moving at 28.2 cm/s. After the collision, the dropped brick and cart are moving together

Softa [21]

Answer:

2.087 kg

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision.

MU + mu = V(M+m)............................ Equation 1

Where M = mass of the cart, m = mass of the brick, U = initial velocity of the cart, u = initial velocity of the brick, V = velocity of both cart and brick after collision.

Note: The initial velocity of the brick is zero Thus mu = 0

making m the subject of the equation,

m =(MU/V)-M ........................................ Equation 2

Given: M = 2.6 kg, U = 28.2 cm/s = 0.283 m/s, V = 15.7 cm/s = 0.157 m/s.

Substituting into equation 2,

m = (2.6×0.283/0.157)-2.6

m = 2.087 kg

Thus the mass of the brick = 2.087 kg

Newton's 3rd Law is based on what type of forces?

NikAS [45]

Answer: His third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A.

What is satellite ?

An object that has been placed into orbit in space on purpose is known as a satellite or artificial satellite. Except for passive spacecraft, most satellites feature a power generation system for equipment on board, such as solar panels or radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs) (RTGs). Most satellites also include a mechanism of communicating to ground stations, called transponders. The most common satellites, small CubeSats, use a standardized bus to reduce costs and labor. Satellites of a similar type can cooperate with one another to form constellations. Satellites are made to be as light and durable as possible due to the high cost of space launch. Satellites are launched into orbit from the surface by vehicles that are high enough to prevent orbital decay caused by the atmosphere.

Help with this question ASAP

Sindrei [870]

The reaction is currently unbalanced (so the third option is immediately wrong). There are more hydrogens and chlorines on the right side, so the number of $\mathrm{HCl}$ molecules on the left side should be increased. This means the last option is correct.
