You throw a bouncy rubber ball and a wet lump of clay, both of mass m, at a wall. Both strike the wall at speed v, but while the

Answer:

<em>The fifth option is the correct answer: mv; 2 mv</em>

Explanation:

<u>Change of Momentum</u>

Assume an object has a momentum p1 and after some interaction it now has a momentum p2, the change of momentum is

$\Delta p=p_2-p_1$

The momentum is computed as

$p=mv$

Where m is the mass of the object and v its speed. Now let's analyze the situation of both the ball and the clay.

The clay has an initial speed v and a mass m, thus its initial momentum is

$p_1=mv$

When it hits the wall, it sticks, thus its final speed is 0 and

$p_2=0$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=0-mv=-mv$

The absolute change is mv

Now for the ball, the initial condition is the same as it was for the clay, but the ball hits back at the same speed, thus its final momentum is

$p_2=-mv$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=-mv-mv=-2mv$

The absolute change is 2mv

The fifth option is the correct answer: mv; 2 mv

A wave of infrared light has a speed of 6m/s and a wave length of 12 m. What is the frequency of this wave?

erastovalidia [21]

Frequency = speed / wavelength

(6 m/s) / (12 m) = 0.5 Hz.

That's not infrared light.
Infrared light waves move about 50 million times faster than that, and they're only about 0.00000007 as long as that.

Today, scientists believe that the main reason the Earth has had periodic ice ages is:____________.

horsena [70]

Answer:

Today, scientists believe that the main reason the earth has had periodic ages is that the climate of earth is controlled by the difference in heating of it's surface by the sun. As for example, the equatorial regions are the warmest as the sun is vertically overhead of those areas and the polar regions where the sun is at the extreme angels are the coldest ones.
