A group of students is measuring the change in momentum of an object. Which set of lab equipment would be most in measuring the

momentum of an object?
Physics

a_sh-v [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object times the velocity of the object, as P = m*v.

So the equipment needed would be:

Something to measure the mass of the object, like a balance.

Something to measure the speed of the object, like a doppler radar, or a simpler thing may be a cronometer, with that you can measure the amount of time that the object needs to travel a given distance, and with that you can obtain the speed of the object.

Now you can notice that speed is different than velocity, this is true, velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, then you need something to fix the direction in which the object moves, in this way you can determine the velocity.

A box, initially at rest, has 36.7 N of force exerted on it for 2.81 s. If the box has a mass of 7.41 kg, what was its velocity
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

13.91 m/s

Explanation:

First we need to find the acceleration:

Acceleration = Force/mass

Acceleration = 36.7N/7.41 kg

Acceleration = 4.95 m/s² (rounded to two decimal places)

Then we find the velocity:

Velocity = Acceleration * Time

Velocity = 4.95 m/s² * 2.81 s

Velocity = 13.91 m/s (rounded to two decimal places)

Naya [18.7K]
1-fixation ( Bacteria Converts nitrogen to ammonium so plants can use it )
2-nitrification ( bacteria changes ammonium to nitrates and plants )
3 - Assimilation (plants absorb nitrates it is then used for Chlorophyll..)

A bullet with a mass m b = 11.5 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity v b = 249 m/s. The block is attached to a spring tha
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

0.358Kg

Explanation:

The potential energy in the spring at full compression = the initial kinetic energy of the bullet/block system

0.5Ke^2 = 0.5Mv^2

0.5(205)(0.35)^2 = 12.56 J = 0.5(M + 0.0115)v^2

Using conservation of momentum between the bullet and the block

0.0115(265) = (M + 0.0115)v

3.0475 = (M + 0.0115)v

v = 3.0475/(M + 0.0115)

plugging into Energy equation

12.56 = 0.5(M + 0.0115)(3.0475)^2/(M + 0.0115)^2

12.56 = 0.5 × 3.0475^2 / ( M + 0.0115 )

12.56 = 0.5 × 9.2872/ M + 0.0115

12.56 = 4.6436/ M + 0.0115

12.56 ( M + 0.0115 ) = 4.6436

12.56M + 0.1444 = 4.6436

12.56M = 4.6436 - 0.1444

12.56 M = 4.4992

M = 4.4992÷12.56

M = 0.358 Kg

wildlife biologists are working to save some unique birds in the forest of north georgia.which of these questions must be answer
Maru [420]
Extinct<span> might be a word you associate with animals that lived long ago, like the dinosaurs, but did you know that over 18,000 species are classified as "threatened" (susceptible to extinction) today? Scientists involved in wildlife conservation have a tough job; they are in charge of determining what needs to be done to prevent a species from becoming extinct. Habitat, food supply, and impacts of local human populations are just a few of the factors these scientists take into account. It is a lot to keep track of for a single location, but the job becomes even harder when it is a migratory animal. In this science project, you will get a firsthand look at their job. You will access </span>real<span> data about migratory birds and use satellite images to analyze their habitats, then come up with a conservation plan to protect the species from extinction.</span>
