B the goose with most mass
this is because momentum=mass x acceleration
so a larger mass will give a larger momentum ( acceleration stays constant)

Water flows over a section of Niagara Falls at rate of 1.1×10^6 kg/s and falls 49.4 m. How much power is generated by the fallin
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

<em>The power generated is =  5.33×10⁸ Watt. </em>

Explanation:

Power: Power can be defined as the time rate of doing work. The S.I unit of power is <em>Watt(W).</em>

<em>Mathematically,</em>

<em>Power (P) = Work done/time or Energy/time</em>

P = mgh/t............................... Equation 1

P = δgh............................. Equation 2

Where δ = fall rate, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.

<em>Given: </em>δ = 1.1×10⁶ kg/s, h = 49.4 m g = 9.81 m/s²

Substituting these values into equation 2

P = 1.1×10⁶×49.4×9.81

P = 533.08×10⁶

<em>P = 5.33×10⁸ Watt.</em>

<em>Thus the power generated is =  5.33×10⁸ Watt. </em>

In a science museum, a 140 kg brass pendulum bob swings at the end of a 16.8 m -long wire.
Mice21 [21]

The period of the pendulum is 8.2 s

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is given by the equation:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration of gravity

T is the period

We notice that the period of a pendulum does not depend at all on its mass, but only on its length.

For the pendulum in this problem, we have

L = 16.8 m

and

g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

Therefore the period of this pendulum is

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{16.8}{9.8}}=8.2 s

Changes of state
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

At segment T-U, the substance changes from a liquid to a gas and does not change temperature.

The reason is because latent heat of vaporisation allows for the absorption of heat in the change of state and temperature remains constant until it has fully changed state.
