i honestly don't even know but yahoo answers says :

Impulse causes momentum to change, which means:

Impulse = change in momentum, or in equation form:

F∆t = (mv)2 – (mv)1

so p (impulse)= mass times velocity so the mass is 2,000kg and the velocity is 12,000N/5s.

speed is basically velocity so you have to calculate how many newtons per one second, so 12,000/5s-- just divide the numerator and denominator by 5. Also, velocity and speed are measured in N/s.

Within a period of the periodic table, how do the properties of the elements vary?

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells; moving across a period (so progressing from group to group), elements gain electrons and protons and become less metallic. This arrangement reflects the periodic recurrence of similar properties as the atomic number increases.

Explanation:

The Periodic Table can predict the properties of new elements, because it organizes the elements according to their atomic numbers. ... They hope that the two nuclei at the centre of these atoms will fuse and form a heavier nucleus. When these heavy elements form, they are usually highly unstable.

A force of 20 N produces an acceleration of 10 m/s² in mass m1 and an acceleration of 5 m/s² in

Scrat [10]

Explanation:

F = 20N m= m1 a=10m/s²

m=m2 a=5m/s²

F = ma

for the first one: 

f=m1 × a

20 = m1 ×10

20=10m1

m1=20/10

m1=2

for the second one :

f=m2×a

20=m2×5

m2= 20/5

m2= 4

since F=ma

F=(m1+m2) ×a

F =(4+2)×a

F =6×a

F=20(from the question above )

20=6×a

a=20/6

a=3.33

When the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them?

Llana [10]

If the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them increases by a factor 4.

In fact, the magnitude of the electric force between two charges is given by:
$F= k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges

We see that the magnitude of the force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance r. Therefore, if the radius is halved:
$r'= \frac{r}{2}$
the magnitude of the force changes as follows:
$F'=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r'^2}=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{( \frac{r}{2})^2 }=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{ \frac{r^2}{4} } =4k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}=4 F$
so, the force increases by a factor 4.

Answer:

4.384 * 10^13

Explanation:

Given the expression :

[(6.67 * 10^-11) * (1.99 * 10^30)] ÷ [(1.74*10^3)*(1.74*10^3)]

Applying the laws of indices

[(6.67 * 1.99) *10^(-11 + 30)] ÷ [(1.74 * 1.74) * 10^3+3]

13.2733 * 10^19 ÷ 3.0276 * 10^6

(13.2733 / 3.0276) * 10^(19 - 6)

4.3840996 * 10^13

= 4.384 * 10^13
