Perihelion is a place ... It's the point in Earth's orbit
where the Earth is closest to the sun.

We reach that point every year some time during
the first few days of January.

Answer:

a) $\Delta p = 1.350\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$ , b) $\Delta p' = -0.454\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$ , c) D. The magnitud of the change in the ball's momentum.

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of the change in the ball's momentum is:

$\Delta p = (0.275\,kg)\cdot \left[\left(1.63\,\frac{m}{s} \right)-\left(-3.28\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\right]$

$\Delta p = 1.350\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$

b) The change in the magnitude of the ball's momentum:

$\Delta p' = (0.275\,kg)\cdot \left[(1.63\,\frac{m}{s} )-(3.28\,\frac{m}{s} ) \right]$

$\Delta p' = -0.454\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$

c) The magnitude of the change in the ball's momentum is more directly related to the net force acting on the ball, as it measures the effect of the force on change in ball's motion at measured time according to the Impact Theorem. So, the right answer is option D.

Answer:

Time = t = 6.62 s

Explanation:

Given data:

Height = h = 215 m

Initial velocity = $v_{i}$ = 0 m/s

gravitational acceleration = g = 9.8 m/s²

Time = t = ?

According to second equation of motion

$h = v_{i}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

As initial velocity is zero, So the first term of right hand side of above equation equal to zero.

$h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

t² = $\frac{2h}{g}$

t = $\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }$

t = $\sqrt{\frac{(2)(215) }{9.8} }$

t = 6.62 s

Why is Carbon Tetrahydride a covalent bond? plzzz helpppp!!!!!!

arlik [135]

Answer:

carbon has four unpaired electrons in its valence shell . hydrogen having one unpaired electron in its valence shell comes to bond with carbon by sharing a pair of electrons .since carbon needs 4 electrons to be stable, 4 hydrogen atoms take part in the bond . It's a covalent bond because the difference between the electronegativity of carbon and hydrogen is quite small .
