Answer:
The Greenhouse Effect Revisited. When solar energy strikes the planet during the day, the ground, highways and other objects get hot and absorb that energy. As the sun goes down, the Earth cools by giving off infrared radiation. Because greenhouse gases absorb part of this radiation, the atmosphere warms and keeps the Earth from getting too cold.
F=dP/dt. So you want the momentum to change as slowly as possible in time to minimize the force. So as you catch the egg, let your hand move backward with it for awhile, slowly bringing it to a stop. If you hold your hand steady when you catch it the force due to the impact could break it.
Answer:
v = 23.66 m/s
Explanation:
recall that one of the equations of motion may be expressed:
v² = u² + 2as,
Where
v = final velocity (we are asked to find this)
u = initial velocity = 0 m/s since we are told that it starts from rest
a = acceleration = 0.56m/s²
s = distance traveled = given as 500m
Simply substitute the known values into the equation:
v² = u² + 2as
v² = 0 + 2(0.56)(500)
v² = 560
v = √560
v = 23.66 m/s
The total momentum of the system has to be conserved to satisfy the principle of conservation of momentum. Before the ball hits the bottle, the momentum of the system is 0.4 x 18 = 7.2 kg m/s
The momentum of the bottle after being hit is 0.2 x 25 = 5 kg m/s
So the momentum of the ball now is 7.2 - 5 = 2.2 kg m/s
Hence its velocity is 2.2/0.4 = 5.5 m/s
