of 190 pounds and is running in the same direction at 3.0 mi/hr. Which of the following statements is true?
-The momentum of player A is equal to that of player B.
-The momentum of player A is greater than that of player B.
-The momentum of player A is less than that of player B.

The equation for momentum is p = mv where p is the omentum, m is the mass and v is the velocity. Calculating the momentum for each football player, player A will have a momentum of 1050 lb-mi/h and player B will have a momentum of 570 lb-mi/h. Therefore, momentum of player A is greater than that of player B.

Answer:

the momentum of player A is greater than player B.

Therefore, Option 2 is correct.

Step-by-Step explanation:

We have been given the velocity of the players and mass of the players.

Player A:

Velocity is 5m/hr

Mass 210 pounds

Player B:

Velocity is 3m/hr

Mass 190 pounds

We have a formula for momentum:

p=mv

p is momentum

m is mass

v is velocity

We will  find momentums for both the players:

Momentum of player A:

on substituting the values we get:

p=210\cdot 5=1050 pounds  

Momentum of player B:

on substituting the values we get:

p=190\cdot 3=570 pounds  

Hence, the momentum of player A is greater than player B.

Therefore, Option 2 is correct.

An astronaut holds a rock 100m above the surface of Planet X . The rock is then thrown upward with a speed of 15m/s , as shown i
Butoxors [25]

Answer:5 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The described situation is is related to vertical motion (and free fall). So, we can use the following equation that models what happens with this rock:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

Where:

y=0m is the rock's final height

y_{o}=100 m is the rock's initial height

V_{o}=15 m/s is the rock's initial velocity

\theta=90\° is the angle at which the rock was thrown (directly upwards)

t=10 s is the time

g is the acceleration due gravity in Planet X

Then, isolating g and taking into account sin(90\°)=1:

g=(-\frac{2}{t^{2}})(y-y_{o}-V_{o}t) (2)

g=(-\frac{2}{(10 s)^{2}})(0 m-100 m-(15 m/s)(10 s)) (3)

Finally:

g=5 m/s^{2} (4) This is the acceleration due gravity in Planet X

When an excited electron in a hydrogen atom falls from the n = 3 to the n = 2 level, a photon of red light is emitted from the a
Kaylis [27]

Answer: 653.33 nm ; 1875, 24 nm

Explanation: For the first case we have to use the Balmer series for  the hydrogen  when the atom falls from the n = 3 to the n = 2. So for the second transtions for the hydrogen we use  the Paschen serie.   To do  the calculation we need to know  the Ryberg constant that is equal to 1.097 * 10^7 m^-1. In the attach is shown the expression for spectral series used for calculation.

28. (a) A daredevil is attempting to jump his motorcycle over a line of buses parked end to end by driving up a 32° ramp at a sp
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

a) # buses = 7  

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the kinematic equations, let's find the time it takes to reach the same height

   

     y =v_{oy}  t - ½ g t²

Let's decompose the speed, with trigonometry

      v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ

      v_{oy} = v₀ sin  θ

      v₀ₓ = 40 cos 32

      v₀ₓ = 33.9 m / s

      v_{oy} = 40 sin32

      v_{oy} = 21.2 m / s

When it arrives it is at the same initial height y = 0

         0 = (v_{oy} - ½ gt) t

That has two solutions

       t = 0                    when it comes out

       t = 2 v_{oy} / g       when it arrives

       t = 2 21.2 /9.8

       t = 4,326 s

We use the horizontal displacement equation

       x = vox t

       x = 33.9   4.326

       x = 146.7 m

To find the number of buses we can use a direct proportions rule

    # buses = 146.7 / 20

    # buses = 7.3

    # buses = 7

The distance of the seven buses is

     L = 20 * 7 = 140 m

b) let's look for the scope for this jump

     R = vo2 sin2T / g

     R = 40 2 without 2 32 /9.8

     R = 146.7 m

As we can see the range and distance needed to pass the seven (7) buses is different there is a margin of error of 6.7 m in favor of the jumper (security)

A cylinder has a magnetic flux of 13 Wb directed inward through its bottom end, and a magnetic flux of 22 Wb directed out of the
satela [25.4K]

To give a solution to this exercise, it is necessary to apply Gauss's magnetic law in which he proposes the magnetic flux through closed surface is zero.

Our data given are as follows:

Inward flux = 13Wb

Outward flux = 22Wb

Since the field of the second flow is directed OUT of the curved side we need to subtract the values, therefore,

Flux = 22-13

Flux = 9Wb\Rightarrow INWARD.
