Can we use momentum to see how fast the earth is going?

Physics

Yes, if we know the Earth's mass

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is a vector quantity given by the equation

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

In this case, we are asked if we can find the velocity of the Earth by starting from its momentum. Indeed, we can. In fact, we can rewrite the equation above as

v=\frac{p}{m}

Therefore, if we know the momentum of the Earth (p) and we know its mass as well (m), we can solve the formula to find the Earth's velocity.

How does metamorphic rock change into another type of metamorphic rock?
Marrrta [24]
Metamorphic rocks are formed by tremendous heat, great pressure, and chemical reactions. To change it into another type of metamorphic rock you have to reheat it and bury it deeper again beneath the Earth's surface.

Hope this helped! :)

A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10.0 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–d
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Velocity of air balloon along +X axis =10 m/s

velocity of ball=4 m/s along + X axis

the velocity of balloon gets added to the velocity of ball. So the resultant velocity of the balloon=10+4 = 14 m/s

time taken= 30 s

The distance traveled is given by d= v t

d= 14 (30)

d= 420 m

Thus the balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.
