Answer:
Option C. 5,000 kg m/s
Explanation:
<u>Linear Momentum on a System of Particles
</u>
Is defined as the sum of the momenta of each particles in a determined moment. The individual momentum is the product of the mass of the particle by its speed
P=mv
The question refers to an 100 kg object traveling at 50 m/s who collides with another object of 50 kg object initially at rest. We compute the moments of each object
The sum of the momenta of both objects prior to the collision is
I think the correct answer would be old and metal poor stars are found in the galactic nucleus. This nucleus us a region in the center of a galaxy which contains a higher luminosity than other parts. It produces very high amounts of energy. Hope this helps.
They are, in fact termed: Body Waves.
'H' = height at any time
'T' = time after both actions
'G' = acceleration of gravity
'S' = speed at the beginning of time
Let's call 'up' the positive direction.
Let's assume that the tossed stone is tossed from the ground, not from the tower.
For the stone dropped from the 50m tower:
H = +50 - (1/2) G T²
For the stone tossed upward from the ground:
H = +20T - (1/2) G T²
When the stones' paths cross, their <em>H</em>eights are equal.
50 - (1/2) G T² = 20T - (1/2) G T²
Wow ! Look at that ! Add (1/2) G T² to each side of that equation,
and all we have left is:
50 = 20T Isn't that incredible ? ! ?
Divide each side by 20 :
<u>2.5 = T</u>
The stones meet in the air 2.5 seconds after the drop/toss.
I want to see something:
What is their height, and what is the tossed stone doing, when they meet ?
Their height is +50 - (1/2) G T² = 19.375 meters
The speed of the tossed stone is +20 - (1/2) G T = +7.75 m/s ... still moving up.
I wanted to see whether the tossed stone had reached the peak of the toss,
and was falling when the dropped stone overtook it. The answer is no ... the
dropped stone was still moving up at 7.75 m/s when it met the dropped one.
