in an isolated system bicyclist 1 and bicyclist 2 each with a mass of 80 kg, collide. bicyclist 1 was moving to the right at 8 m

/s, while bicyclist 2 was moving to the left at 2 m/s. what is the magnitude of their combined momentum before the crash

Consider speed of bicyclist 1 as V1=+8m/s and bicyclist 2 as V2=-2m/s  m=80kg 

Since momentum has opposite signs moving to right or left   

Therefore the combined momentum , P is given by :   

P=m*V1+m*V2 =80*(8-2)kg*m/s=+480 kg m/s

Okay I better get a good answer for this guy I'm puttin' all my money on it.
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

His third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A.

What happens when solar energy heats a body of water?
Nataliya [291]
Explanation: Evaporation happens when a liquid substance becomes a gas. When water is heated, it evaporates. The molecules move and vibrate so quickly that they escape into the atmosphere as molecules of water vapor (Dunn,1993).

Find the density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 680 atm if the density at the surface is 1030 kg/m3. Seawater has
Pie

Answer:

1060.41kg/m^3

Explanation:

Bulk modulus is defined as the relative change in the volume of a body produced by a unit of compressive acting uniformly over its surface:

B=\rho _o \frac{\bigtriangleup P }{\bigtriangleup \rho}

Hence the density of the seawater at a depth of 680atm is calculated as:-

\rho=\rho_o +\bigtriangleup \rho=\rho_o(1+\frac{\bigtriangleup P}{B})\\\\=1030 \times (1+ \frac{(680-1)\times10^5}{2.3\times 10^9})\\=1060.41kg/m^3
