Complete Question:

Football player A has a mass of 110 kg, and he is running down the field with a velocity of 2 m/s. Football player B has a mass of 120 kg and is stationary. What is the total momentum after the collision?

Answer:

Total momentum = 220 Kgm/s.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

For footballer A

Mass, M1 = 110kg

Velocity, V1 = 2m/s

For footballer B

Mass, M1 = 120kg

Velocity, V1 = 0m/s since he's stationary.

To find the total momentum;

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

$Momentum = mass * velocity$

a. To find the momentum of A;

$Momentum \; A = 110 * 2$

Momentum A = 220 Kgm/s.

b. To find the momentum of B;

$Momentum \; B = 120 * 0$

Momentum B = 0 Kgm/s.

c. To find the total momentum of the two persons;

$Total \; momentum = Momentum \; A + Momentum \; B$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Total \; momentum = 220 + 0$

<em>Total momentum = 220 Kgm/s. </em>

Which combination of temperature and pressure correctly describes standard temperature and pressure

raketka [301]

Answer: A combination 0 degrees Celsius and 101.3 kPa or 1 atm correctly describes standard temperature and pressure.

Explanation:

The term standard temperature and pressure is also known as STP and it is most commonly used when we want to calculate the density of a gas.

The term standard temperature means $32^{o}$ Fahrenheit or $0^{o}C$ or 273 Kelvin. On the other hand, term standard pressure means 1 atmosheric pressure of a gas.
