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
1 answer:
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.

7. Explain why observations of comets and shooting stars presented challenges to ancient astronomers using
Lelu [443]

According to Ptolemy's model, he, too, believed in a geocentric Universe and that the planets and stars were perfect spheres, though Earth itself was not.

He further thought that the movements of the planets and stars must be circular since they were perfect and, if the motions were circular, then they could go on forever.

<h3>What is comets and shooting stars?</h3>

Shooting stars are very different from comets, although the two can be related. A Comet is a ball of ice and dirt, orbiting the Sun (usually millions of miles from Earth). ... A shooting star on the other hand, is a grain of dust or rock (see where this is going) that burns up as it enters the Earth's atmosphere.

Which of the following changes will always increase the efficiency of a thermodynamic engine? Choose all correct statements.
Ilya [14]

Answer:B,C,D

Explanation:

Thermodynamic  efficiency is given by

\eta =1-\frac{T_C}{T-H}

\eta efficiency can be increased by Keeping _c constant and increasing T_H

Keeping T_H constant and decreasing T_c

by increasing \Delta T=T_H-T_c

by decreasing \frac{T_C}{T_H} ratio

An 8 kg mass moving at 8 m/s collides with a 6 kg mass
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(8 kg)(8 m/s) + (6 kg)(6 m/s) = (8 kg)(5 m/s) + (6 kg) v

64 kg m/s + 36 kg m/s = 40 kg m/s + (6 kg) v

60 kg m/s = (6 kg) v

v = 10 m/s
