Answer:

the rock will continue at the same speed unless it is affected by another force such as gravity and so if you threw it it will continue to move unless affected by a force

Explanation:

this is because Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.

A bowling ball has an initial momentum of +30 kg m/s and hits a stationary bowling pin. After the collision, the bowling ball le
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Momentum of the bowling pin is 17kgm/s

Explanation:

P(initial of ball)=+30 kg m/s

P(initial of pin)=0  because its velocity is 0

P initial = P final

30= P(ball) + P(pin)

30=13+P(pin)

P(final of pin)=+13 kg m/s and P(final of ball)= 30-13=17kgm/s

Connelly cuts a solid object in half. What happens to the mass, volume, and density of the object that Connelly cuts? A)The mass
amm1812
I think the correct answer would be D. After cutting the solid object in half, the mass and volume are both divided by two, but the density remains the same. The mass and volume would change accordingly to satisfy the law of conservation of mass which states that mass cannot be created or destroyed. So, after dividing the object the sum of the mass of the two parts should be equal to the original mass of the object. This would also be the same for the volume of the objects. Density is the ratio of mass and volume and, since the mass and volume change accordingly, the value of the density would still be the same regardless of the object being divided.
