The huge truck has a larger change in its momentum. 

As they are moving at the same speed, the huge truck's mass is much higher and therefore its momentum change is greater.

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e  \dfrac{m}{2} .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

The boundary between the crust and mantle is marked by a seismic-velocity discontinuity called
Minchanka [31]

The boundary between the crust and mantle is marked by a seismic-velocity discontinuity is called Mohorovicic discontinuity.

Mohorovicic discontinuity was discovered by Andrija Mohorovicic in 1909 who was a Croatian seismologist. He realized that the velocity of a seismic wave is related to the material's density where it is moving through. He decoded that the acceleration of the seismic waves that are observed within outer shell of the earth is a compositional change. Thus, the acceleration should be caused by a material of higher density.

7. A 1.0 kg metal head of a geology hammer strikes a solid rock with a velocity of 5.0 m/s. Assuming all the energy is retained
marta [7]

The increase in temperature of the metal hammer is 0.028 ⁰C.

The given parameters:

  • <em>mass of the metal hammer, m = 1.0 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the hammer, v = 5.0 m/s</em>
  • <em>specific heat capacity of iron, 450 J/kg⁰C</em>

The increase in temperature of the metal hammer is calculated as follows;

Q = K.E\\\\mc \Delta T = \frac{1}{2}  mv^2\\\\\Delta T = \frac{v^2}{2 c}

where;

<em>c is the </em><em>specific heat capacity</em><em> of the metal hammer</em>

<em />

Assuming the metal hammer is iron, c = 450 J/kg⁰C

\Delta T = \frac{5^2}{2 \times 450} \\\\\Delta T = 0.028 \ ^0C

Thus, the increase in temperature of the metal hammer is 0.028 ⁰C.

A stone is dropped from a height of 49m and simultaneously another ball is thrown upward from the ground with a speed of 40m/s.
Lilit [14]

Answer:

S1 = 1/2 g t^2     distance stone falls in time t

S2 = Vy t - 1/2 g t^2   distance thrown stone rises in time t

H = 49 = S1 + S2 = Vy t

t = 49 / 40 sec   time when stones meet

Check:

Stone 1 falls:      1/2 g t^2 = 1/2 * 9.8 * (49 / 40)^2 = 7.35 m

Stone 2 rises :  40 * (49 / 40) - 1/2 * 9.8 (49 / 40)^2 = 41.65 m
