Answer:

C. 2 N forwards

Explanation:

Net Force in y direction = 0 since the lift force and gravity cancel out. Net force in x direction = 6 N forward - 4 N backwards = 2 N forwards.

After being struck by a bowling ball, a 1.8 kg bowling pin sliding to the right at 5.0 m/s collides head-on with another 1.8 kg
kaheart [24]

Answer:

a) v₂ = 4.2 m/s

b) v₂ = 5 m/s

Explanation:

a)

We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg

u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s

u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s

v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0.8 m/s

v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?

Therefore,

(1.8\ kg)(5\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(1.8\ kg)(0.8\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(v_2)\\v_2 = 5\ m/s - 0.8\ m/s

<u>v₂ = 4.2 m/s</u>

<u></u>

b)

We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg

u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s

u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s

v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0 m/s

v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?

Therefore,

(1.8\ kg)(5\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(v_2)

<u>v₂ = 5 m/s</u>

How you do this resistor in circuit question?
lawyer [7]
If Resistors are in series= The equivalent is the sum.

E.g R1 and R2 in series,  R = R1 + R2.

If in Parallel, equivalent is Product/sum.

E.g If R1 and R2 in parallel,  R = (R1*R2)/(R1+R2)

1.)    60 is parallel with 40 and both are then in series with 20.

60//40   = (60*40)/(60+40) = 2400/100 = 24 

Now the 24 is in series with the 20 

R = 24 + 20 = 44 ohms.

2.)    80 is in series with 40 and both are then in parallel with 40.

Solving the series,  R = 80 + 40 =120.

Parallel:   120//40  =     (120*40)/(120+40) =  4800/160 = 30 
Equivalent Resistance = 30 ohms.

3.) 100 is in parallel with 100 and both are then in series with the parallel of 50 and 50.

The 1st parallel  =  (100*100)/(100+100) = 10000/200 = 50

The 2nd parallel  =  (50*50)/(50+50)  = 2500/100   = 25.

Solving the series  = 50 + 25 =75 ohms.

Cheers.

Convection currents occur in fluids because of temperature and______ differences. Convection currents transfer ______ energy thr
Alex777 [14]

Solution: (i) Density (ii) thermal

Liquids at lower temperatures have greater density when compared to liquids at higher temperatures.This is because, at higher temperatures, molecules have greater kinetic energy and hence they are spaced farther apart, when compared to molecules at lower temperatures. Thus, the colder layers of liquids are heavier than the warmer layers, which causes then to move down due to gravity. For the same reason, the hotter layers move upwards through the liquid.

When a liquid is heated, the molecules closest to the heat source have greater energy, their density becomes less and they move upwards. The colder layers sink downwards. The layers of the liquid which were cold initially, get heated and they travel upwards. As the process repeats, convection currents are set up in the liquid.

These currents transfer the thermal energy derived from the source throughout the liquid. The process stops when the entire liquid is at the same temperature.

Thus, convection currents occur in liquids due to temperature and <u>density</u> differences. Convection currents transfer <u>thermal</u> energy throughout a fluid.

Why do sound waves travel around corners better than light waves? Sound<br>waves<br>​
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Sound waves travel at 343 m/s through the air and faster through liquids and solids. The waves transfer energy from the source of the sound, e.g. a drum, to its surroundings. Your ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles cause your ear drum to vibrate. The bigger the vibrations the louder the sound.
