Answer:

Electric charge, q = 8.16 C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current, I = 1.6 A

Time taken, t = 5.1 s

Electric current is given by electric charge divided total time. Mathematically, it is given by :

$I=\dfrac{q}{t}$

$q=I\times t$

$q=1.6\times 5.1$

q = 8.16 C

So, the electric charge passes a given point in the conductor during this time is 8.16 coulombs. Hence, this is the required solution.

The sound wave never actually loses energy, the bulk of energy it had at the beginning of the sound, is spread out into a sphere, making it decrease in amplitude and frequency.

Which description includes a scalar quantity? The car is moving at 70 miles/hr. Objects accelerate on Earth at 9.8 m/s2 downward

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Car moving at 70 miles per hour

Explanation:

A scalar is a quantity that can be fully described by magnitude alone.

Examples of scalar quantities include: Distance and speed

Something is not a scalar quantity when it is given direction. When this happens, it becomes a vector quantity.

Thus, from the choices, we can see that the car moving at 70 miles per hour is the scalar quantity as it is the only choice without a direction.

) A 0.10-kg ball, traveling horizontally at 25 m/s, strikes a wall and rebounds at 19 m/s. What is the magnitude of the change i

deff fn [24]

Answer:

The magnitude of the change in the momentum of the ball during the rebound is 4.4 kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 0.1 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 25 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = -19 m/s (the ball rebounds so it will be negative)

We need to find the magnitude of the change in the momentum of the ball during the rebound. The change in momentum of the object is equal to the difference of final and initial momentum.

$\Delta p=m(v-u)$

$\Delta p=0.1\ kg\times (-19-25)\ m/s$

$\Delta p=-4.4\ kg-m/s$

$|\Delta p|=4.4\ kg-m/s$

So, the magnitude of the change in the momentum of the ball during the rebound is 4.4 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
