Answer:

The final velocity of the stone = 19.6 m/s

Explanation:

We have to find the velocity of a stone dropped from a tower which hits the pavement in two seconds.

As a stone is released from the top of a building , it undergoes uniform acceleration of gravity and speeds up and hits the ground with a certain speed.

We have the equation,

v = u + gt

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

Substituting these values we get

v = 0 + 9.8\times 2

v = 19.6 m/s

The final velocity of the stone = 19.6 m/s

It is correct to say that impulse is equal toA) momentum.B) the change in momentum.C) the force multiplied by the distance the f
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

B) the change in momentum.

Explanation:

The impulse is defined as the product between the force applied on an object (F) and the duration of the collision (\Delta t):

J=F \Delta t (1)

We can rewrite the force by using Newton's second law, as the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):

F=ma

So, (1) becomes

J=ma \Delta t

Now we can also rewrite the acceleration as ratio between the change in velocity and change in time: a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}. If we substitute into the previous equation, we find

J=m\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}\Delta t=m\Delta v

And the quantity m\Delta v is equivalent to the change in momentum, \Delta p.

Tammy leaves the office, drives 34 km due north, then turns onto a second highway and continues in a direction of 35◦ north of e
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

The total displacement is 102 km 51^o north of east.

Explanation:

We can treat this problem as a trigonometric one, so we need to calculate the total displacement on the north and east.

d_n=34km+79km*sin(35^o)=79km

and

d_e=79*cos(35^o)=65km

The total displacement is given by:

D=\sqrt{(79km)^2+(65km)^2}=102km

with an agle of:

\alpha =arctg(\frac{79km}{65km})=51^o

2NaOH+H2SO4 Na2SO4+H2O the equation is balanced/unbalanced because the number of hydrogen atoms and oxygen/sodium is equal/not e
RUDIKE [14]
Your equation is:
2NaOH + H_{2}SO_{4}  ==\ \textgreater \  Na_{2}SO_{4} + H_{2}O

An equation is balanced only if there are the same number of atoms of each element on both sides of the arrow - aka same number of atoms of each element in both reactants (left of the arrow) and products (right of the arrow). 

It'll be easiest to tackle this by counting up the number of atoms of each element on the left and on the right and comparing those numbers. If there is a number in front of the entire compound, that means that number applies to all elements in the compound. If the number is a subscript (little number to the right of the element), that means that number only applies to the element that the subscript is attached to:
1) On the left, you have:
2NaOH + H_{2}SO_{4}\\
\\
Na:  \: 2 \: atoms\\
O: \: 2 + 4 = 6 \: atoms\\
H: \: 2 + 2 = 4 \: atoms\\
S:  \: 1 \: atom

2) On the right, you have:
Na_{2}SO_{4} + H_{2}O\\
\\ 
Na: \: 2 \: atoms\\ 
O: \: 4 + 1 = 5 \: atoms\\ 
H: \: 2 \: atoms\\ 
S: \: 1 \: atom

You can see that the number of oxygen and hydrogen atoms aren't equal on both the left (reactants) and the right (products), so the equation is unbalanced.

Your final answer is "T<span>he equation is unbalanced because the number of hydrogen atoms and oxygen is not equal in the reactants and in the products."</span>
