I think we will use the law of conservation of linear momentum;
M1V1 = M2V2
M1 =  4 kg (mass of the water balloon launcher)
V1=?
M2= 0.5 kg ( mass of the balloon)
V2 = 3 m/s

Therefore; 4 V1 = 0.5 × 3
                   4V1= 1.5
                     V1= 1.5/4
                          = 0.375 m/s

what is the relationship between the electric field strength at a point and its distance from the source charge?
Vaselesa [24]
The Electric field strength reduces or increases as the distance from the source increases or reduces respectively. It actually follows inverse square law.

The Electric Field strength reduces or increases by the square of the distance away from the source or toward the source respectively.

The average standard rectangular building brick has a mass of 3.10 kg and dimensions of 225 m x 112 m x 75 m. The gravitational
zzz [600]

Answer:

P=3.61\times 10^{-3}\ Pa

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a brick, m = 3.1 kg

The dimensions of the brick 225 m x 112 m x 75 m

We need to find the maximum pressure created by the brick. We know that, the force acting per unit area is called pressure exerted. It is given by the formula as follows :

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

F = mg

A = area with minimum dimensions i.e. 112 m x 75 m

Pressure is maximum when the area is least.

So,

P=\dfrac{mg}{A}\\\\P=\dfrac{3.1\times 9.8}{112\times 75}\\\\P=3.61\times 10^{-3}\ Pa

So, the maximum pressure created by brick is 3.61\times 10^{-3}\ Pa.
