You will be colliding two carts in this lab. Select all the systems for which you predict the total momentum of the system will

baherus [9]

From the momentum conservation we know that the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum. The momentum in a singular way can be defined as the product between the mass and the velocity of an object. In the presented system, however, there are two objects, therefore the mass of both and the speed of both, before and after the collision must be taken into account. Mathematically we could describe this as

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Here,

$m_{1,2}$ = Mass of each object

$u_{1,2}$ = Initial velocity of each object

$v_{1,2}$ = Final velocity of each object

From here we can realize that it is necessary to use the system on both cars to be able to predict what will happen either with their masses, or their speeds.

The correct answer is C.

A finch rides on the back of a Galapagos tortoise, which walks at the stately pace of 0.060 m/s. After 1.1 minutes, the finch ti

Romashka [77]

Answer:

Average Speed = 6.37 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed is simply given by the following formula:

Average Speed = Total Distance Traveled/Total Time Spent

here,

Total Time Spent = 1.1 min + 1.5 min = (2.6 min)(60 s/min) = 156 s

Now, for total distance, we have to calculate the distance traveled on tortoise and distance traveled while flying, separately. Therefore,

Distance Traveled on Tortoise = (Time spent on Tortoise)(Speed of Tortoise)

Distance Traveled on Tortoise = (1.1 min)(60 s/min)(0.06 m/s) = 3.96 m

Similarly,

Flying Distance = (Flying Time)(Flying Speed) = (1.5 min)(60 s/min)(11 m/s)

Flying Distance = 990 m

Since, total distance is the sum of both distances, therefore,

Total Distance = 3.96 m + 990 m = 993.96 m

Now, using the values in equation of average speed, we get:

Average Speed = 993.96 m/156 s

Average Speed = 6.37 m/s

If it is brittle, dissolves easily in water, has a high melting point, and conducts electric current it is a(n) __________.

Julli [10]

Answer:

Ionic Compound

Explanation:

We know that an ionic compound dissolves easily in water. Its melting point is very high, and it is a conductor.

The equation for Ionic Compound (IC) versus Electricity (EC) is

IC=1/2 divided by EC

EC is the base for the mathematics, so EC is a base warmth at 360.

360 divided by 1/2 is 180

That is the speed in which the current has.

What are some important factors to consider when choosing a warm-up before your workout?

TEA [102]

Answer:

Prior to exercise, a proper warm-up of 10-15 minutes is extremely important to avoid injuries.

Don't go too hard in the beginning and boost your activity level slowly. A good indication of a proper warm-up is that you feel sweat on your body parts.
Don't overstretch right in the beginning as it can cause sore in your muscles and joints or stress fractures.
Take a break if you feel sick or fatigues and use other drinks along with water to replace electrolytes and body fluids.
