Answer: The correct answer is 75 kg m/s.

Explanation:

The expression of the momentum in terms of velocity and mass is as follows;

p=mv

Here, m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity.

It is given in the problem that a person with a mass of 15 kg is walking on a flat surface at a velocity of 5 m/s.

Calculate the walker's momentum.

Put m= 15 kg and v= 5 m/s in the above expression.

p=(15)(5)

p= 75 kg m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the speedboat is 75 kg m/s.

Andreyy89

Answer:

-450 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

p₀ = p

0 = (1.5 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (0.005 kg) v

v = -450 m/s

The Earth's axis of rotation is tilted. Because of this, the amount of sunlight an area on the planet receives each day varies
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: The Northern Hemisphere experiences the start of <u>summer</u>

Explanation:

Due to this tilt in Earth's axis of rotation, some regions receive different amounts of sunlight according to the seasons of the year. These variations are more evident near the poles and softer or imperceptible near the equator. This explains the fact that while in the northern hemisphere it is summer and there are high temperatures (because the Sunlight incides more perpendicularly in this area during this season), in the southern hemisphere it is winter and very low temperatures are recorded, and vice versa.  

In this sense, according to the image the Earth is at the point of its orbit in which, due to the inclination of its axis, the North Pole is closer to the Sun.  

In other words, the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun, and this astronomical phenomenon brings the summer season for the Northern Hemisphere.
