Answer: Correct option is C) because momentum is conserved

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of linear momentum if net external force on a system is zero then the total momentum of the system will be conserved .

<u>For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system</u>

If we consider the two colliding object as a single system then while collision the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.

Thus momentum before collision equal the momentum after a collision because momentum is conserved .

All fires require oxygen () There is no oxygen in that room (T) .

Marina CMI [18]

The sentences are invalid and unsound.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The fire is defined as the vigorous oxidation of a substance. Now oxidation can occur in presence of any oxidising agent. Like magnesium in presence of nitrogen in high temperature with a dazzling brownish flame to produce magnesium nitride. So fire can be produced in absence of oxygen.

Oxygen is present everywhere in world. So production of a whole room without oxygen is very tough to produce and costly process. So its very unsound.

What is the conductor's resistance if its length is 2m and has a cross-sectional area of 0.7m with a resistivity of4Ωm? a. 1.4 Ω

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The answer is c. 11.42 Ohm

Explanation:

The conductor's resistance is calculated by the formula in the figure.

So, you have to replace the given values into the formula.

Resistance of a conductor is equal to the product of rho by the lengh of the conductor divided the cross-sectional area of the conductor.

$R= 4 ohm.m . (2m/o.7m^{2} )\\R=11.42ohm$
