He momentum is reduced by external forces of friction and air resistance. Momentum is not conserved here because this is not a closed system.

Due to friction from sliding against the ground, the player decelerates in 1 direction. Thus his momentum decreases.

Describe an object’s motion when balanced forces act on it
Alinara [238K]

Which best describes an example of an n-type semiconductor?
nata0808 [166]
An N-Type semiconductor will always have an excess electron which is more famous for the term valence electrons. It is one of the part which makes a p-n junction the structure of a diode a basic type of semiconductor device. A P-type semiconductor on the other hand has missing electrons or most widely known as valence holes. When applied a voltage bias of correct polarity and intensity between both ends of the junction you are able to close the gap between the junction allowing the excess valence electron to pass through the p type material inducing current with process, in application lighting up the diode.

A 50 gram meterstick is placed on a fulcrum at its 50 cm mark. A 20 gram mass is attached at the 12 cm mark. Where should a 40 g
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The 40g mass will be attached at 69 cm

Explanation:

First, make a sketch of the meterstick with the masses placed on it;

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

               ↓                    Δ                      ↓

             20 g.................50 cm.................40g

                         38 cm                  y cm  

Apply principle of moment;

sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment

40y = 20 (38)

40y = 760

y = 760 / 40

y = 19 cm

Therefore, the 40g mass will be attached at 50cm + 19cm = 69 cm

              12cm             50 cm              69cm

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

               ↓                    Δ                      ↓

             20 g.................50 cm.................40g

                         38 cm                 19 cm
