Answer:

Momentum, p = 5 kg-m/s

Explanation:

The magnitude of the momentum of an object is the product of its mass m and speed v i.e.

p = m v

Mass, m = 3 kg

Velocity, v = 1.5 m/s

So, momentum of this object is given by :

p=3\ kg\times 1.5\ m/s

p = 4.5 kg-m/s

or

p = 5 kg-m/s

So, the magnitude of momentum is 5 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball is thrown vertically upwards from the edge of the cliff and hits the ground at the base of the cliff with a speed of 30 m
olya-2409 [2.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations. From the definition of the final velocity, as the sum between the initial velocity and the product between the acceleration (gravity) by time, we will find the final velocity. From the second law of kinematics, we will find the vertical position traveled.

v = v_0 -gt

Here,

v = Final velocity

v_0 = Initial velocity

g = Acceleration due to gravity

t = Time

At t = 4s, v = -30m/s (Downward)

Therefore the initial velocity will be

-30 = v_0 -9.8(4)

v_0 = 9.2m/s

Now the position can be calculated as,

y = h +v_0t -\frac{1}{2}gt^2

When it has the ground, y=0 and the time is t=4s,

0 = h+(9.2)(4)-\frac{1}{2} (9.8)(4)^2

h = 41.6m

Therefore the cliff was initially to 41.6m from the ground

Which type of energy is stored in a capacitor? electric potential energy chemical energy gravitational energy heat energy
Tom [10]

Energy stored in a capacitor is Electric Potential Energy. Capacitor is device used for storing energy. The work done to charge is a capacitor is stored in it in the form of Electrical potential energy. Electrical potential energy is defined as capacity to do work due to the position change. For example, we know fans have capacitor installed in it. When we turn off the fan, it continue moving using the electrical energy stored in the capacitor.

What is the relationship between thermal energy, temperature, pressure?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: When volume is constant, pressure is directly proportional to temperature. When temperature is constant, pressure is inversely proportional to volume. When pressure is constant, volume is directly proportional to temperature.
