You throw a bouncy rubber ball and a wet lump of clay, both of mass m, at a wall. Both strike the wall at speed v, but while the

lana [24]

Answer:

<em>The fifth option is the correct answer: mv; 2 mv</em>

Explanation:

<u>Change of Momentum</u>

Assume an object has a momentum p1 and after some interaction it now has a momentum p2, the change of momentum is

$\Delta p=p_2-p_1$

The momentum is computed as

$p=mv$

Where m is the mass of the object and v its speed. Now let's analyze the situation of both the ball and the clay.

The clay has an initial speed v and a mass m, thus its initial momentum is

$p_1=mv$

When it hits the wall, it sticks, thus its final speed is 0 and

$p_2=0$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=0-mv=-mv$

The absolute change is mv

Now for the ball, the initial condition is the same as it was for the clay, but the ball hits back at the same speed, thus its final momentum is

$p_2=-mv$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=-mv-mv=-2mv$

The absolute change is 2mv

The fifth option is the correct answer: mv; 2 mv

What is the rising of rock layers called

Alex777 [14]

The answer of this question is called uplift i.e the rising of rock layers in geology is called uplift.

Uplift is the process in which there will be vertical elevation of earth surface due to various natural processes occurring inside the surface of earth like earth quakes. Sometimes uplift is also caused by the mountain building which hampers the balance of a particular region.

In the process of uplift,the rocks normally metamorphic rocks present underground will be brought up to the earth surface.The enhanced elevation will cause erosion of lot of materials on the surface of earth.

If something is being carried by westerlies, what direction is it moving??

sergejj [24]

Winds are immigrants. They're named for where they have already been and are coming from, not for where they're going.

A Westerly wind is coming from the West. Anything caught in it is being blown toward the east.

A proton with a velocity in the positive x-direction enters a region where there is a uniform magnetic field B in the positive y

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Positive z direction.

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting on the electron is given by the formula as :

$F=q(v\times B)$

q is the charge on proton

v is the speed of proton

B is the magnetic field

It is mentioned that the proton is moving with a velocity in the positive x-direction. The uniform magnetic field B in the positive y-direction such taht,

q = +e

v = vi

B = Bj

$F=e(v\ i\times B\ j)$

Since, $i\times j=k$

$F=(evB)\ k$

So, the magnetic force acting on the proton in positive z axis. Hence, the correct option is (d) "positive z direction".
