A boat floats south on the Amazon River at a speed of 6 m/s. The boat and

EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

Take south to be negative.

a. Momentum is mass times velocity.

p = mv

p = (540 kg) (-6 m/s)

p = -3240 kg m/s

p = 3240 kg m/s south

b. Impulse = change in momentum

J = Δp

Since the mass is constant:

J = mΔv

J = (540 kg) (-4 m/s − (-6 m/s))

J = 1080 kg m/s

J = 1080 kg m/s north

Ball A is allowed to fall and strike ball B. Assume that all of ball A's energy is transferred to ball B at point I, and that th

Alika [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

If no Energy is lost ( either as Sound energy or any other energy) the total energy of ball A equals the total energy of ball B

Therefore the Kinetic Energy of Ball B equals the Total Energy of Ball A minus the Potential Energy of Ball A

Milk with a density of 1020 kg/m3 is transported on a level road in a 9-m-long, 3-m-diameter cylindrical tanker. The tanker is c

jeka57 [31]

Solution :

Given data is :

Density of the milk in the tank, $\rho = 1020 \ kg/m^3$

Length of the tank, x = 9 m

Height of the tank, z = 3 m

Acceleration of the tank, $a_x = 2.5 \ m/s^2$

Therefore, the pressure difference between the two points is given by :

$P_2-P_1 = -\rho a_x x - \rho(g+a)z$

Since the tank is completely filled with milk, the vertical acceleration is $a_z = 0$

$P_2-P_1 = -\rho a_x x- \rho g z$

Therefore substituting, we get

$P_2-P_1=-(1020 \times 2.5 \times 7) - (1020 \times 9.81 \times 3)$

$=-17850 - 30018.6$

$=-47868.6 \ Pa$

$=-47.868 \ kPa$

Therefore the maximum pressure difference in the tank is Δp = 47.87 kPa and is located at the bottom of the tank.

A ball is tossed vertically upward. When it reaches its highest point (before falling back downward) Group of answer choices the

nignag [31]

Answer:

the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward, and the force of gravity acting on the ball is directed downward

Explanation:

Is this exercise in kinematics

v = v₀ - g t

where g is the acceleration of the ball, which is created by the attraction of the ball to the Earth.

At the highest point

velocity must be zero.

The acceleration depends on the Earth therefore it is constant at this point and with a downward direction.

The force of the earth on the ball is towards the center of the Earth, that is, down

In a thin film experiment, a wedge of air is used between two glass plates. If the wavelength of the incident light in air is 48

cluponka [151]

Answer:

The thickness is $\Delta y = 2.4 *10^{-6} \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is $\lambda = 480 \ nm = 480*10^{-9} \ m$

The first order of the dark fringe is $m_1 = 16$

The second order of dark fringe considered is $m_2 = 6$

Generally the condition for destructive interference is mathematically represented as

$y = \frac{m \lambda}{2}$

Here y is the path difference between the central maxima(i.e the origin) and any dark fringe

So the path difference between the 16th dark fringe and the 6th dark fringe is mathematically represented as

$y_1 - y_2 = \Delta y = \frac{m_1 \lambda}{2} - \frac{m_2 \lambda}{2}$

=> $y_1 - y_2 = \Delta y = \frac{16 *480*10^{-9}}{2} - \frac{6 *480*10^{-9}}{2}$

=> $y_1 - y_2 = \Delta y = 5 (480*10^{-9})$

=> $\Delta y = 2.4 *10^{-6} \ m$
