Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved in an inelastic collision. In a completely-inelastic collision, both objects have a common final velocity.  Once the relative speed between the mosquito and the raindrop is zero, the mosquito is able to detach from the drop and escape

Identify two structural characteristics specific to muscle tissue.
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Muscle cells are excitable; they respond to a stimulus.meaning they can shorten and generate a pulling force. When attached between two movable objects, such as two bones, contraction of the muscles cause the bones to move.It contains protein fibers which contract to make the cell shorter.

A 1.50-V battery supplies 0.414 W of power to a small flashlight. If the battery moves 4.93 1020 electrons between its terminals
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

2.86×10⁻¹⁸ seconds

Explanation:

Applying,

P = VI................ Equation 1

Where P = Power, V = Voltage, I = Current.

make I the subject of the equation

I = P/V................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 0.414 W, V = 1.50 V

Substitute into equation 2

I = 0.414/1.50

I = 0.276 A

Also,

Q = It............... Equation 3

Where Q = amount of charge, t = time

make t the subject of the equation

t = Q/I.................. Equation 4

From the question,

4.931020 electrons has a charge of (4.931020×1.6020×10⁻¹⁹) coulombs

Q = 7.899×10⁻¹⁹ C

Substitute these value into equation 4

t =  7.899×10⁻¹⁹/0.276

t = 2.86×10⁻¹⁸ seconds
