3. The sum of the players' momenta is equal to the momentum of the players when they're stuck together:

(75 kg) (6 m/s) + (80 kg) (-4 m/s) = (75 kg + 80 kg) v

where v is the velocity of the combined players. Solve for v :

450 kg•m/s - 320 kg•m/s = (155 kg) v

v = (130 kg•m/s) / (155 kg)

v ≈ 0.84 m/s

4. The total momentum of the bowling balls prior to collision is conserved and is the same after their collision, so that

(6 kg) (5.1 m/s) + (4 kg) (-1.3 m/s) = (6 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (4 kg) v

where v is the new velocity of the 4-kg ball. Solve for v :

30.6 kg•m/s - 5.2 kg•m/s = 9 kg•m/s + (4 kg) v

v = (16.4 kg•m/s) / (4 kg)

v = 4.1 m/s

Which can be observed both on Earth and in an accelerating ship in space that is free from the effect of any gravitational field
Reil [10]

Answer:

  • apples falling from trees
  • people's feet touching the ground
  • sky divers moving toward the ground  
  • balls bending downward after being thrown​

Explanation:

When a space ship is accelerating in space, there is a force known as Inertia that kicks in. Inertia will mirror the effects of gravity on the ship even if there is no gravitational field effect such that anything that would happen where there is gravity, would continue to happen.

This means that apples will fall from trees, people's feet will touch the ground, sky divers will be pulled downwards and balls will bend downwards when thrown as well. These are the same effects expected on earth where gravity pulls things towards the earth's core.

People, especially adults, are inactive because of "passive" modes of transportation.
enot [183]

The drop in physical activity is partly due to inaction during leisure time and sedentary behaviour on the job and at home. Likewise, an increase in the use of "passive" modes of transportation also contributes to insufficient physical activity.

What is the kinetic energy of a 50-kg child running to catch the school bus at
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Option C

100 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy, KE is given by

KE=0.5mv^{2} where m is the mass and v is the velocity

Substituting 50 Kg for mass, m and 2 m/s for velocity v then we obtain

KE=0.5*50*2^{2}=100 J

Therefore, the child's kinetic energy is equivalent to 100 J
