Answer:
B - Earth's path around the Sun
Explanation:
Answer:
move the decimal 6 places to the left.
Explanation:
um I assume you meant to say area m^3
Answer:
Momentum is given by
p
=
m
v
. Impulse is the change of momentum,
I
=
Δ
p
and is also equal to force times time:
I
=
F
t
. Rearranging,
F
=
I
t
=
Δ
p

Explanation:
Momentum before the collision is

Assuming the truck comes to a complete halt, the momentum after the collision is

The change in momentum,
Δ
p
, is initial minus final

This is called the impulse:
I
=
Δ
p
. Impulse is also equal (check the units) to force times time:
I
=
F
t
.
We can rearrange this expression to make
F

The negative sign just means the force acting is in the opposite direction to the initial momentum.
(This will be the average force acting during the collision: collisions are chaotic so the force is unlikely to be constant.)
Answer: v = 2.24 m/s
Explanation: The <u>Law</u> <u>of</u> <u>Conservation</u> <u>of</u> <u>Energy</u> states that total energy is constant in any process and, it cannot be created nor destroyed, only transformed.
So, in the toy launcher, the energy of the compressed spring, called <u>Elastic</u> <u>Potential</u> <u>Energy (PE)</u>, transforms into the movement of the plastic sphere, called <u>Kinetic</u> <u>Energy (KE)</u>. Since total energy must be constant:

where the terms with subscript i are related to the initial of the process and the terms with subscript f relates to the final process.
The equation is calculated as:






v = 2.24
The maximum speed the plastic sphere will be launched is 2.24 m/s.
