Answer:
i. -4m
ii. 20m
Explanation:
The car travels 8m to the east, then travels 12m to the west which is the opposite of the east. Going west, the car travels 8m back to the origin point and then another 4m due west to make 12m. The displacement from the origin point is -4 (the negative sign shows the direction because displacement is a vector quantity)
Total distance = 8m going east + 8m back to origin + 4m west = 20m
The conservation of momentum states that the total momentum in a system is constant if there is no external force acting on the system. The total momentum in the gun bullet system is 0 so it must stay that way.
The momentum of the bullet is mv = 0.015*500=7.5
The momentum of the gun must be the same to keep the total momentum of the system equal to zero, so we know that p = 7.5 for the gun.
Substituting this in we get:
7.5=3.1x
x=7.5/3.1
x=2.42
So the speed of the gun is 2.4m/s.
When a boy throws a ball and accidentally breaks a window, the momentum of the ball and all the pieces of glass taken together after the collision is THE SAME as the momentum of the ball before the collision

Answer:
Zero
Explanation:
W = F × s
F = 10 N,
t = 3min = 180sec
s = 0( no change in postion)
W = 10 ×0
W = 0
