Answer:

Weight is a force.

Explanation:

Force acting on an object is defined in terms of mass and its acceleration. Its mathematical force is given by

F = ma

Weight of an object is force that the Earth exerts on an object. It can be given by the formula as follows :

W = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth

Hence, the correct option is (d).

A small object with momentum 7.0 kg∙m/s approaches head-on a large object at rest. The small object bounces straight back with a

EastWind [94]

Answer:

The magnitude of the large object's momentum change is 3 kilogram-meters per second.

Explanation:

Under the assumption that no external forces are exerted on both the small object and the big object, whose situation is described by the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

$p_{S,1}+p_{B,1} = p_{S,2}+p_{B,2}$ (1)

Where:

$p_{S,1}$ , $p_{S,2}$ - Initial and final momemtums of the small object, measured in kilogram-meters per second.

$p_{B,1}$ , $p_{B,2}$ - Initial and final momentums of the big object, measured in kilogram-meters per second.

If we know that $p_{S,1} = 7\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$ , $p_{B,1} = 0\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$ and $p_{S, 2} = 4\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$ , then the final momentum of the big object is:
