If net external force acting on the system is zero, momentum is conserved. That means, initial and final momentum are same → total momentum of the system is zero.

Answer: FALSE

Explanation: Momentum is the product of the mass of an object and the velocity of that object,momentum is a vector quantity which means it has a Magnitude (distance covered) and Direction.

Force is the product of the mass of an object and its acceleration,Force can also be described as the weight of an object after the force of gravity acts on its mass.

If the net force acting on an object is zero it does not mean that the momentum of that system is zero, because momentum does not solely depends on forces,it has to do with the MASS of the object and the VELOCITY of the object.

Answer:

Because the angle of the sun moves/rotates in the summer, the sun's rays move their angle and impact the earth.

Please help me with physics ks3!! Sound waves and hearding (pic incl)

Nina [5.8K]

Your answers for a), b), and c) are correct. Good work !

d). The high noise levels in Technology and PE are more of
a concern to the teachers than to the students because the
students are only in there for 1 or 2 periods a day, but the
Technology and PE teachers are in there ALL day.

e). Mr. Jones can't hear as high frequency as Jenny can because
he is much older than Jenny is. Sadly, even without damage due to
loud noise, the ability to hear high frequencies does decrease with age.

f). The wooden surfaces in the gym cause the gym to be louder
than it would be if it had carpet on the floor. Carpet ... and soft
walls and ceilings ... absorb a lot of the sound that hits them.
But hard surfaces don't absorb much of the sound that hits them,
so it just keeps bouncing around until it finally fades away.

You can see this easily ... just go into the gym at your school, clap
your hands once, and notice how long you keep hearing the sound
after you clap.

1. How do you describe the path that the light passes through when it travels?

Ber [7]

The white light is divided into its component hues - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet - as it passes through the prism. Dispersion is the splitting of visible light into its many hues.

===========================================================

Dispersion is the splitting of visible light into its many hues. Each hue is associated with a certain wave frequency, as stated in the Light and Color unit, and different frequencies of light waves bend at different rates while passing through a prism.

============================================================

===========================================================

The sun and the weather combine to create a rainbow. As it passes from air to denser water, light enters a water droplet, slowing and bending. The light bounces off the interior of the droplet, separating the wavelengths—or colors—that make up the droplet. A rainbow is created as light escapes the droplet.
