Let m = the mass of the softball.
Then the mass of the basketball is 3m.

By definition, momentum =  mass * velocity.
If both the softball and basketball move at the same velocity, v, then
Momentum of the softball = mv
Momentum of the basketball = 3mv

Answer: The momentum of the basketball is 3 times that of the softball.

A 15kg dog jumps out of a 40kg canoe. If the dogs velocity is 1.2m/s, what is the velocity of the canoe?
vivado [14]

Answer:

v = -0.45 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the canoe was initially at rest with momentum L = 0

and that the dog's velocity is in the positive direction

conservation of momentum

0 = 15(1.2) + 40v

v = -0.45 m/s

Anvisha [2.4K]
When a cold air <span>mass replaces a warm air mass, this is called a cold front. Some characteristics of a called front before passing are winds coming from south or southwest area, warm temperature, falling pressure, and drizzles. When it passes, the winds are shifting, there is a sudden drop of temperature, minimum pressure followed by a sharp rise. After passing, the winds head to the west or northwest area, temperature is steadily dropping and the pressure is rising steadily.</span>
