Answer:
A) 21.2 kg.m/s at 39.5 degrees from the x-axis
Explanation:
Mass of the smaller piece = 200g = 200/1000 = 0.2 kg
Mass of the bigger piece = 300g = 300/1000 = 0.3 kg
Velocity of the small piece = 82 m/s
Velocity of the bigger piece = 45 m/s
Final momentum of smaller piece = 0.2 × 82 = 16.4 kg.m/s
Final momentum of bigger piece = 0.3 × 45 = 13.5 kg.m/s
since they acted at 90oc to each other (x and y axis) and also momentum is vector quantity; then we can use Pythagoras theorems
Resultant momentum² = 16.4² + 13.5² = 451.21
Resultant momentum = √451.21 = 21.2 kg.m/s at angle 39.5 degrees to the x-axis ( tan^-1 (13.5 / 16.4)

Answer:
An unknown number of identical light bulbs are connected to a 15 V battery in parallel. The current through the battery is 2 A. If the light bulbs are connected to the battery in series, the current through the battery is 5 mA. How many bulbs are there?
3 bulbs are there from the analogy given above

The person still walked 16 blocks but ended up in the same spot he started from
Answer:
Explanation:
Impulse on an object is given by ![\mathrm{[impulse]}=F\Delta t](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7B%5Bimpulse%5D%7D%3DF%5CDelta%20t)
.
However, it's also given as change in momentum (impulse-momentum theorem).
Therefore, we can set the change in momentum equal to the former formula for impulse:
.
Momentum is given by 
. Because the truck's mass is maintained, only it's velocity is changing. Since the truck is being slowed from 26.0 m/s to 18.0 m/s, it's change in velocity is 8.0 m/s. Therefore, it's change in momentum is:
.
Now we plug in our values and solve:
(two significant figures).
