Answer:

B) the change in momentum

Explanation:

Impulse is defined as the product between the force exerted on an object (F) and the contact time (\Delta t)

I=F \Delta t

Using Newton's second law (F = ma), we can rewrite the force as product of mass (m) and acceleration (a):

I=(ma) \Delta t

However, the acceleration is the ratio between the change in velocity (\Delta v) and the contact time (\Delta t): a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}, so the previous equation becomes

I=m \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}\Delta t

And by simplifying \Delta t,

I=m \Delta v

which corresponds to the change in momentum of the object.

Which kinds of objects emit visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Triss [41]

Answer : Relatively hot objects

Explanation : We know that, the temperature of the objects is inversely proportional to their wavelengths. The objects emitting radiation in the visible region have short wavelength and hence are relatively hotter.

We know the range of wavelength of the visible spectrum is from 400 nm to 780 nm.

The image in formed in this case at a distance of 24.3cm in left of lens.

Case 2.

A point source is placed in between the lens and the mirror at a distance of 40 cm from the lens i.e. the source is placed at the focus of mirror, then the rays after reflection becomes parallel for the lens such that

u=∞

f=15cm

Now, using mirror’s formula

Simone is walking her dog on a leash. The dog is pulling with force of 34 N to the right and simone is pulling backward with a f
e-lub [12.9K]

I do not understand the full question, however if you are wondering which way Simone and the dog will go, they will go right because the force of 34 N from the dog is higher than the force of 16 N from Simone.
