Several rocks slide down a mountainside, each with the same velocity. Which rock will have the greatest momentum?

2 answers:

4 0

The biggest rock, because it has more mass. More mass means that gravity is stronger on it than the other rocks, thus pulling it towards the center of the Earth more quickly, when on a slope.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

$Q_{H}=6.4kJ/s$

Explanation:

Given data

Coefficient of performance of a residential heat pump=1.6

Electrical power P=4kW

Required

Heat Q

Solution

The rate of heat produced is given as

$Q_{H}=COP_{HP}Win\\$

Substitute the given values

Andru [333]

Explanation :

It is given that, a heavy box is in the back of a truck and the truck is accelerating to the right.

The description is shown in<em> figure 1</em>. Here, the forces that act on both box and the truck are the normal force, the frictional force and their weight mg.

The free body diagram is shown in <em>figure 2</em>. This shows the total forces ( F = ma )acting on the truck. As a result, the truck will move in a forward direction.

Hence, this is the required explanation.
