It would definitely be 40,000 <span>kg • m/s because if you double either the mass or velocity and the other stays the same, the momentum will double no matter what.</span>

Answer: 40,000 kg • m/s

Explanation:

the momentum of an object is defined as the product between its mass (m) and its velocity (v):

p=mv

From the formula, we see that there is a direct proportionality between the momentum, p, and the velocity, v. Therefore, if the velocity is doubled, then the momentum doubles as well.

In this problem, the initial momentum of the car is 20,000 kg • m/s. Therefore, if the velocity of the car is doubled, the momentum of the car will double as well, and it will becomes

2\cdot 20,000 kg \cdot m/s=40,000 kg m/s

Is distance traveled by a moving train qualitative discrete continuous or na?
butalik [34]
Continuous. Discrete values are values like 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - they're values that are <em>distinct</em>, and typically there's some idea of a <em>next </em>and a <em>previous </em>value. When we're counting whole numbers, there's a definitive answer to which number comes after, and which number comes before. With continuous values, there's no real "next" or "last" value.

Motion is measured with <em>continuous </em>values; a train might move 300 yards in 1 minute, but we can look at smaller and smaller chunks of time to keep getting shorter and shorter distances. There is no <em />"next" distance the train moves after those 300 yards - it just doesn't make sense for there to be.

It's also measured <em>quantitatively</em>, not <em>qualitatively</em>. This just means that we can use numerical values to measure it, rather than other descriptors like color, smell, or taste.

An astronaut drops a hammer from 2.0 meters above the surface of the moon. if the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1.6
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

1.57 s

Explanation:

Since the motion of the hammer is a uniformly accelerated motion, the distance covered by the hammer in a time t is

S=\frac{1}{2}at^2

Where, in this case

S = 2.0 m is the distance covered

a = 1.62 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

Re-arranging the equation, we can find the time the hammer takes:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2.0 m)}{1.62 m/s^2}}=1.57 s

Suppose your hair grows at the rate of 1/55 inch per day. Find the rate at which it grows in nanometers per second. Because the
qwelly [4]

Answer:5.35nm

Explanation:

Consider that 1 inch is = 0.0254m

we have,

1m= 1x10^9 nm  

While:

0.0254m = 2.54x10^7nm  

1/55 (2.54x10^7) = 4.6181 x 10^5nm  

1 day= 24 hrs  

= (24x60) when calculating in min  

= (24x60x60) calculating in seconds we have:

= 8.64x10⁴sec  

In 8.64x10^4 seconds, the hair grows by 4.6181 x 10^5nm

Therefore, the amount by which the hair grows in 1 second  will be;

= (4.6181 x 10^5)/(8.64x10^4)  

= 5.35nm  

The rate of growth will be 5.35nm
