A 1.5-kg ball is throw at 10 m/s. What is the balls momentum?
alexdok [17]

Answer : The momentum of ball is, 15 kg.m/s

Explanation :

Momentum : It is defined as the motion of a moving body. Or it is defined as the product of mass of velocity of an object.

Formula of momentum is:

where,  

p = momentum  = ?

m = mass  = 1.5 kg

v = velocity = 10 m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

Therefore, the momentum of ball is 15 kg.m/s

6. A warehouse employee is pushing a 15.0 kg desk across a floor at a constant speed of 0.50 m/s. How much work must the employe
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

7.5 J

Explanation:

To answer the question given above, we need to determine the energy that will bring about the speed of 1 m/s. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 15 Kg

Velocity (v) = 1 m/s

Energy (E) =?

E = ½mv²

E = ½ × 15 × 1²

E = ½ × 15 × 1

E = ½ × 15

E = 7.5 J

Therefore, to change the speed to 1 m/s, the employee must do a work of 7.5 J.

Prove(show) ''T=2π√(l/g)''​
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Time period for Simple pendulum, T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}

Explanation:

The Simple Pendulum

Consider a small bob of mass m is tied to extensible string of length l that is fixed to rigid support. The bob is oscillating in the plane about verticle.

       Let \theta is the angle made by string with vertical  during oscillation.

Vertical component of the force on bob, F=-mg\sin\theta

Negative sign shows that its opposing the motion of bob.

Taking \theta as very small angle then, \sin\theta\sim\theta

F=-mg\theta    

Let x is the displacement made by bob from its mean position ,

then, \theta=\frac{x}{l}

so, F=-mg\frac{x}{l}                ........(1)

Since, pendulum is in hormonic motion,

as we know, F=-kx

where k is the constant and k=m\omega^{2}

F=-m\omega^2x                   .........(2)

From equation (1) and (2)

-m\omega^2x=-mg\frac{x}{l}

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l}}

Since, \omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}

\frac{2\pi}{T}=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l}

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

Explain the theory of plate tectonics and how they have changed Earth’s surface over time. Include the role of plate tectonics i
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The theory of plate tectonics describes the movement of the plates across the Earth's lithosphere (the crust and upper mantle) through immense periods of time. Earth's litoshphere is composed of 7 (or 8, depending on how they are defined) major plates and many more minor plates.

The movement is attributed to different phenomena stemming from Earth's rotation, gravity, and mantle dynamics. All of these forces play a role in influencing the size, shape, and positioning of the different landmasses that currently shape our continents and islands.

Explanation:

In a nutshell, land originated from magma in the Earth's core escaping through the cracks and making its way to the ocean. The water cooled down the magma and this process created all of the land both above and below the sea. The landforms that we see all around the Earth today were formed thanks to collisions and separations of the plates thoughout billions of years.
