Here, Initial momentum = mu = 6*2 = 12 Kg m/s
Final momentum = mv = 6*4 = 24 Kg m/s

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

Hope this helps!

<u>Answer:</u> The initial momentum is 12 kg m/s, and the final momentum is 24 kg m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Momentum is defined as the force that keeps the object moving.  It is also defined as the product of mass and velocity of an object.

Mathematically,

p=m\times v     .......(1)

where,

p = momentum of the bowling ball

m = mass of the bowling ball

v = velocity of the bowling ball

  • <u>Calculating the initial momentum:</u>

We are given:

m=6kg\\u=\text{Initial speed}=2m/s

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

p=6kg\times 2m/s\\\\p=12kg.m/s

  • <u>Calculating the final momentum:</u>

We are given:

m=6kg\\u=\text{Final speed}=4m/s

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

p=6kg\times 4m/s\\\\p=24kg.m/s

Hence, the initial momentum is 12 kg m/s, and the final momentum is 24 kg m/s

The amount of energy which is transported past a given area of the medium per unit of time is known as the ________ of the sound
Aliun [14]
The term that describes the amount of energy transported past a given area of the medium per unit time would be "intensity." In addition, the formula for computing intensity would be:

Intensity = Energy / (Time * Area)

It can be implied that the wave would be more intense when its energy transfer rate gets increased and vibration amplitudes also increases.

How does a bimetallic strip work in a sinple alarm system​
tatiyna
The bimetallic strip in a fire alarm is made of two metals with different expansion rates bonded together to form one piece of metal. Typically, the low-expansion side is made of a nickel-iron alloy called Invar, while the high-expansion side is an alloy of copper or nickel. The strip is electrically energized with a low-voltage current. When the strip is heated by fire, the high-expansion side bends the strip toward an electrical contact. When the strip touches that contact, it completes a circuit that triggers the alarm to sound. The width of the gap between the contacts determines the temperature that will set off the alarm.

A 20.5 kg ball moving at 38.5 m/s on a horizontal, frictionless surface runs into a light spring of force
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

7.68 m

Explanation:

Kinetic energy in ball = elastic energy in spring

KE = EE

½ mv² = ½ kx²

mv² = kx²

x = v √(m / k)

x = (38.5 m/s) √(20.5 kg / 515 N/m)

x = 7.68 m

A book is dropped from a window. It takes 5 seconds to reach the ground. What is its velocity after 2 seconds? What’s the veloci
ira [324]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity is 0. In the equation v = v0+at where v0 is the initial velocity of 0, we only have to fill in -9.8 for a and 2 for t to get the velocity after 2 seconds -19.6 m/s; after 5 seconds, when it hits the ground, a = -9.8 and t = 5 to give a velocity of -49 m/s. Gravity pulls down everything at the same rate, it doesn't matter whether we drop a feather or an elephant from the window!

State four law of photoelectric effect​
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

LAW 1 :  For a given metal and frequency, the number of photoelectrons emitted is directly proportional to the intensity of the incident radiation.  

---------------------------------------------

LAW 2: For a given metal, there exists a certain frequency below which the photoelectric emission does not take place. This frequency is called threshold frequency.

-----------------------------------------------

LAW 3: For a frequency greater than the threshold frequency, the kinetic energy of photoelectrons is dependent upon frequency or wavelength but not on the intensity of light.

-----------------------------------------------

LAW 4: Photoelectric emission is an instantaneous process. The time lag between incidence of radiations and emission of electron is 10^-9 seconds.
