In a science fiction novel two enemies, Bonzo and Ender, are fighting in outer spce. From stationary positions, they push agains

t each other. Bonzo flies off with a velocity of +2.2 m/s, while Ender recoils with a velocity of -2.6 m/s. Determine the ratio mBonzo/mEnder of the masses of these two enemies.

Answer:

\frac{m_B}{m_E}=1.18

Explanation:

m_B = Mass of Bonzo

m_E = Mass of Ender

u_B = Initial Velocity of Bonzo = 2.2 m/s

u_E = Initial Velocity of Ender = -2.6 m/s

From conservation of linear momentum

m_Bu_B=m_Eu_E\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_B}{m_E}=\frac{u_E}{u_B}\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_B}{m_E}=\frac{2.6}{2.2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_B}{m_E}=1.18

\therefore \frac{m_B}{m_E}=1.18

How do Newton's laws of motion explain why it is important to keep the ice smooth on a hockey rink so that players can
lord [1]

Answer:

I'm not sure..but please refer to your teacher later.

Answer: Based on Newton's First law of motion (where inertia is involved), smooth ice increases the forceused to accelerate the hockey puck.

Explanation;

  • smooth ice reduces the resistances between the surface of the figure skates and the ice itself.
  • based on inertia theory ; the heavier the weight, the larger the inertia.. which explains it takes alot of force to move a heavier object than the lighter ones.. it also hard to *stop* the motion of heavier objects than the lighter ones.
  • now let's look at the design of the player shoe itself, they have a sharp blade at the bottom of the figure stakes.. which takes us to the law of the force.. the smaller the surface area, the more forces acting on it. So, players force (weight, F= mg) acts on the tip of the blade and on the ice
  • high inertia (run fast) and high force (attack opponent and pass puck) enables them to perform well in playing hockey
  • Thus if there's no resistance and the inertia of the player is high then they could run and pass the puck quickly

Which equation is true of an atom with no elctrical charge
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Atoms are composed of electrons (charge -1), protons (charge +1), and neutrons (no charge). So in a neutral atom the correct answer is "D".

What is the resolution of an analog-to-digital converter with a word length of 12 bits and an analogue signal input range of 100
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The resolution of an analog-to-digital converter is 24.41 mV

Explanation:

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = (analogue signal input range)/2ⁿ

where;

n is the number or length of bit, and in this question it is given as 12

Also, the analogue signal input range is 100V

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 100V/2¹²

2¹² = 4096

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 100V/4096

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 0.02441 V = 24.41 mV

Therefore, the resolution of an analog-to-digital converter is 24.41 mV
