Hello
It is called lightning. Lightning in a storm occurs when there are two regions (it can be cloud-cloud or cloud-ground), one with a strong excess of positive charges and the other one with a strong excess of negative charges. The two types of charge attract each other, and then a sudden flow of charges from one region to the other occurs, which is called lightning.

Water flows along a streamline down a river of constant width. Over a short distance, the water slows from speed v to v/3. Which
kvasek [131]

Answer:

a. It became deeper by a factor of 3.

Explanation:

What we have is water flowing down a river with constant width. The water slows from speed v to v3 over a shirt distance

Using the equation of continuity

A1V1 = A2V2 ----1

A1 is the area of rectangle

V1 is the velocity of water

Area of rectangle = length x width

We rewrite equation 1 as

λ1w1v1 = λ2w2v2

We have w1 = w2

λ1v1 = λ2v2

λ1*v1 = λ2*v/3

λ1 = λ2/3

So it becomes deeper by a factor of 3

The mass of a basketball is three times greater then the mass of a softball. Compare the momentum’s of a softball and a basketba
vagabundo [1.1K]
Let m = the mass of the softball.
Then the mass of the basketball is 3m.

By definition, momentum =  mass * velocity.
If both the softball and basketball move at the same velocity, v, then
Momentum of the softball = mv
Momentum of the basketball = 3mv

Answer: The momentum of the basketball is 3 times that of the softball.
