In which is momentum conserved: an elastic collision or an inelastic collision?

Energy and momentum<span> are always </span>conserved<span>. Kinetic energy is not </span>conserved<span> in an inelastic collision, but that is because it is converted to another form of energy (heat, etc.). The sum of all types of energy (including kinetic) is the same before and after the collision.</span>

A car travels at a constant velocity of 70 mph for one hour. At the second hour, the car’s velocity was 60 mph. At the third hou
katovenus [111]

When the velocity increases, then the acceleration will be positive and when the velocity decrease then the acceleration will be negative.

During the first hour, the velocity was 70 mph and during the seconds hour the velocity was 60 mph. Hence, the velocity decrease in the seconds hour. So, the acceleration will be negative during the second hour.

Now, during the third hour the velocity increases as it is 80 mph. Hence, the acceleration will be positive during the third hour.

A particular baseball pitcher throws a baseball at a speed of 39.1 m/s (about 87.5 mi/hr) toward home plate. We use g = 9.8 m/s2
Reika [66]
There is no acceleration in the horizontal direction (just g in the vertical), so we can use v = d/t, where v is velocity, d is distance and t is time. We can solve for time like so: t = d/v, we can plug in numbers (v is 39.1m/s completely in the horizontal direction, so no need to break it down with sin's and cos's, just plug it in) and we get t = (16.6m)/(39.1 m/s) = 0.42 s. Keep in mind it wouldn't fall far enough vertically to hit home plate (though we don't know the ball's initial height anyway), but would be in the air just above it. Cheers!

a) Southward you need to apply right hand rule. If you close your hand to the east, your thumb will indicate south.

b) Given the equation for Magnetic Force

F= qVB

Replacing

F= (1.16*10^{-19})(1.17*10^5)(50*10^{-6})

F=9.36*10^{-19}

c) Given the second Newton's Law by

F_g = 1.67*10^{-27}*9.81

F_g = 1.64*10^{-26}

Given the electric force by,

F_e = 1.6*10^{-19}*1.5*10^2

F_e = 2.4*10^{-17}N

F=9.36*10^{-19}N

Beings on spherical asteroid have observed that a large rock is approaching their asteroid in a collision course. At 7514 km fro
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

c. 4.582\times10^{21} kg

Explanation:

r_{i} = Initial distance between asteroid and rock = 7514 km = 7514000 m

r_{f} = Final distance between asteroid and rock = 2823 km = 2823000 m

v_{i} = Initial speed of rock = 136 ms⁻¹

v_{f} = Final speed of rock = 392 ms⁻¹

m = mass of the rock

M = mass of the asteroid

Using conservation of energy

Initial Kinetic energy of rock + Initial gravitational potential energy = Final Kinetic energy of rock + Final gravitational potential energy

(0.5) m v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{i}} = (0.5) m v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{i}} = (0.5) v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) (136)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(7514000)} = (0.5) (392)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(2823000)} \\M = 4.582\times10^{21} kg

Fl-19 in florida, if your pwc is equipped with an engine cut-off lanyard, what must you do with it?
melamori03 [73]

Answer: Attach it to clothing, personal flotation device or the person's person.

Explanation:

This particular Question or problem has to do with the rules and regulations or laws governing the use of Personal Watercraft(PWC) in the state of Florida in the United States of America. Hence, one of the rules that is applicable to the use of boats and waterways or the use of personal watercraft in Florida is that in florida, if ones pwc is equipped with an engine cut-off lanyard the person operating it must ATTACH IT TO THE CLOTHING, PERSONAL FLOATATION DEVICE IR THE OPERATORS' PERSON.

Another rule band the use of flammable personal flotation device with Personal Watercraft(PWC) in the state of Florida. All this rules and guildlines are made to limit or minimize hazards.
