You throw a bouncy rubber ball and a wet lump of clay, both of mass m, at a wall. Both strike the wall at speed v, but while the

ball bounces off with no loss of speed, the clay sticks. What is the change in momentum of the clay and ball, respectively, assuming that toward the wall is the positive direction?

Answer:

Change in momentum of the wet lump of clay = -mv

Change in momentum of the bouncy rubber ball = -2mv

Explanation:

Momentum, p = mv

Change in momentum of the wet lump of clay

The initial velocity of the wet lump of clay of mass, m is v, so its initial momentum is p₁ = mv. Since it sticks to the wall, its final velocity is zero. So its final momentum is p₂ = m × 0 = 0. Its change in momentum Δp = p₂ - p₁ = 0 - mv = -mv

Change in momentum of the bouncy rubber ball

The initial velocity of the rubber ball of mas m is v, so its initial momentum is p₃ = mv. Since it bounces of the wall with no loss of speed and thus moves in the opposite direction to its initial direction, its final velocity is -v. So its final momentum is p₄ = m × -v = -mv. Its change in momentum Δp = p₄ - p₃ = -mv - mv = -2mv

The description for a certain brand of house paint claims a coverage of 475 ft²/gal.
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

(a) 11.66 square meters per liter

(b) 11657.8 per meters

(c) 0.00211 gal per square feet

Explanation:

(a) 475ft^2/gal = 475ft^2/gal × (1m/3.2808ft)^2 × 1gal/3.7854L = 11.66m^2/L

(b) 475ft^2/gal = 475ft^2/gal × (1m/3.2808ft)^2 × 264.17gal/1m^3 = 11657.8/m

(c) Inverse of 475ft^2/gal = 1/475ft^3/gal = 0.00211gal/ft^3

Describe the general relationship between the weight of adult men and the average number of Calories needed daily to maintain a
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The average number of calories needed daily represents the average quantity of calories eliminated by human body due to metabolism and must be compensated by eating and drinking.

The amount of calories contained in the food we eat every day must represent the amount of calories eliminated by the body in that time to have a steady weight.

Explanation:

The average number of calories needed daily represents the average quantity of calories eliminated by human body due to metabolism and must be compensated by eating and drinking. If total quantity of calories in the food we consume every day is higher that the average number of calories needed daily, then weight increases by fat accumulation.

If sulfur 34 undergoes alpha decay, what will I become?
ikadub [295]
It will decay into Silicon-30. Because alpha particles are 2 protons and 2 neutrons with an atomic mass of 4, you minus sulfur's atomic number by 2 and get silicon. And the atomic mass is 34 - 4 which equals 30.
