The condition of earths atmosphere at a given time and place is the weather.
Answer: a) 6.67cm/s b) 1/2
Explanation:
According to law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the bodies before collision is equal to the momentum of the bodies after collision. Since the second body was initially at rest this means the initial velocity of the body is "zero".
Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the bodies
u1 and u2 be their velocities respectively
m1 = 5.0g m2 = 10.0g u1 = 20.0cm/s u2 = 0cm/s
Since momentum = mass × velocity
The conservation of momentum of the body will be
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
Note that the body will move with a common velocity (v) after collision which will serve as the velocity of each object after collision.
5(20) + 10(0) = (5+10)v
100 + 0 = 15v
v = 100/15
v = 6.67cm/s
Therefore the velocity of each object after the collision is 6.67cm/s
b) kinectic energy of the 10.0g object will be 1/2MV²
= 1/2×10×6.67²
= 222.44Joules
kinectic energy of the 5.0g object will be 1/2MV²
= 1/2×5×6.67²
= 222.44Joules
= 111.22Joules
Fraction of the initial kinetic transferred to the 10g object will be
111.22/222.44
= 1/2
Answer:
Gas is a state of matter that has no fixed shape and no fixed volume.
In addition to solids and liquids, gases are also a physical state in which matter can occur. All gases have weight. Unlike solids and liquids, gases will occupy the entire container that encloses them.
matter is "anything that has mass and volume (occupies space)
<em>Gases have mass. The space between gas particles is empty. Gases can be formed as products in chemical reactions. Gas particles can form bonds between them under certain conditions</em>
<em> Gases have volume which isn't fixed </em>(no fixed volume)<em> and no fixed shape. Gases expand to fill the space available. They can also be compressed into a very small space.</em>
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is energy of motion.
In the cases of a stretched rubber band, water in a reservoir, natural gas, or an object suspended above the ground, everything is just laying there, and nothing is moving. There's nothing there that has kinetic energy.
If there's any wind, then air is moving. The moving air has kinetic energy.
