What is the magnitude of the momentum of a 33 g sparrow flying with a speed of 8.7 m/s?

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

0.2871 kg m/s

Explanation:

p = mv

convert 33g into kg (0.033)

mulitply byt 8.7 to get 0.2871

Select the correct answer.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

A. continental-oceanic convergent

Explanation:

I knew it couldn't be B because it's oceanic and continental, not oceanic and oceanic.

Next, I noticed the word convergent, which implies "coming together" to me.

I looked it up and noticed the term convergent referred to a plate boundary where a plate slips under (subducted) another, so I knew it was A.

Hopefully, this helps you understand the question better. Have a great day!

Quantum physics would most likely be needed to understand the motion of which of the following?

melisa1 [442]

The correct answer is A.

Quantum physics is the branch of science which deals with the behavior of matter and light on atomic and subatomic level. So, to understand the motion of an atom we would need quantum physics. Motion of a ball and a galaxy can be understood by Newtonian mechanics.

A ball is attached to a string of length 3 m to make a pendulum. The pendulum is placed at a location that is away from the Eart

Musya8 [376]

1) $0.61 m/s^2$

2) 13.9 s

Explanation:

1)

The acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration that an object in free fall (acted upon the force of gravity only) would have.

It can be calculated using the equation:

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}$ (1)

where

G is the gravitational constant

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ is the Earth's mass

r is the distance of the object from the Earth's center

The pendulum in the problem is at an altitude of 3 times the radius of the Earth (R), so its distance from the Earth's center is

$r=4R$

where

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ is the Earth's radius

Therefore, we can calculate the acceleration due to gravity at that height using eq.(1):

$g=\frac{GM}{(4R)^2}=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})0.}{(4\cdot 6.37\cdot 10^6)^2}=0.61 m/s^2$

2)

The period of a simple pendulum is the time the pendulum takes to complete one oscillation. It is given by the formula

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

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration due to gravity at the location of the pendulum

Note that the period of a pendulum does not depend on its mass.

For the pendulum in this problem, we have:

L = 3 m is its length

$g=0.61 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity (calculated in part 1)

Therefore, the period of the pendulum is:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{3}{0.61}}=13.9 s$

What is a good scientific question on a baloon powered car? (it's for my science fair)

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Balloon powered car works on the principle of Newtons III law. Escaping air from the balloon, the car accelerates forward. The reaction is the air behind the car, pushing against it, and with the same force car moves forward is the action.

Some scientific questions are:

1. What is the energy stored in the balloon?

Ans: Potential energy (Potential energy is stored in elastic balloon)

2. Which energy is used in balloon-powered car?

Ans: Kinetic energy. (Whenever the balloon escapes the air, potential energy is converted into Kinetic energy)

3. What is the principle involved in balloon powered car?

Ans: Newtons III law.
