Two rocks are moving through empty space in a straight line at the same speed. One has a mass of 10 kg, the other has a mass of

50 kg. Which statement about the rocks is true?
A.
Both will be stopped by the same amount of force acting against them.



B.
The one with less mass takes more force to stop.



C.
The one with greater mass takes more force to stop.



D.
Both will stop on their own without any force acting on them.

A and D are definitely wrong because the two rocks have different masses, so it leaves us with B and C. The most logical answer to the question is
C <span>The one with greater mass takes more force to stop.

During a circus act, an elderly performer thrills the crowd by catching a cannon ball shot at him. The cannon ball has a mass of
olasank [31]

Answer:

3.416 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of cannonball m_A = 72.0 kg

mass of performer m_B = 65.0 kg

The horizontal component of the ball initially \mu_{xA} = 6.50 m/s

the final velocity of the combined system v = ????

By applying the linear momentum of conservation:

m_A \mu_{xA}+m_B \mu_{xB} = (m_A+m_B) v

72.0 \ kg \times 6.50 \ m/s+65.0 \ kg \times 0 = (72.0 \ kg+65.0 \ kg) v

468 kg m/s + 0 = (137 kg)v

v = \dfrac{468\  kg m/s }{137 \ kg}

v = 3.416 m/s

In Millikan's oil-drop experiment, one looks ata small oil drop held motionless between two plates. Take the voltage betwee the
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The charge on the drop  is

q = 1.741 x 10 ⁻²¹ C

Explanation:

Electric field due to plates

Ef = V/d  

Ef = 2033 V / (2.0 * 10^-2 m )

Ef = 101650 V/m

So, we can write  

Ef * q = m*g

q = m*g / E f

The mass can be equal using the density and the volume so:

m = ρ * v

The volume can be find as:

v = 2.298 x 10 ⁻ ¹⁶ m³

q =  ρ * v * g / Ef

q =  81 x 10 ³ kg/ m³ * 2.2298 x 10 ⁻ ¹⁶ m³ * 9.8 m/s² / 101650 V/m

The charge on the drop  is

q = 1.741 x 10 ⁻²¹ C

Difference between male and female gamete​
Inga [223]

Answer:

The male gamete is smaller in comparison to that of the female gamete.

The male gamete is conical from the front while the female gamete is spherical.

The cytoplasm in the male gamete is less in comparison to that of the female gamete.

The male gamete can move with the help of the tail while the female gametes are immobile and do not have any tail or flagella present.

The number of mitochondria present in the sperm is less than the number of mitochondria present in the ovum.

The male gamete has acrosome present in the head region that contains enzymes for dissolving the membranes present around the ovum. The ovum does not contain such digestive enzymes.

Find the magnitude of the resultant forces 6N and 8N inclined at an angle 240° to each<br>other.​
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

F = 7.2N

Explanation:

The resultant of two forces acting at some angle is given by using the vector addition as given below

F =√F1^2+F2^2+2F1F2cosθ

Where F1 = 6N and F2 = 8N

θ = 240°

Substituting the values into the equation above

F = √ 6^2+8^2+ 2(6×8)cos240

F =√ 36+64+96cos240

F = √ 100+96 ×-0.5

F = √ 100-48

F = √ 52

F = 7.211

F = 7.2N
