Let's calculate the momentum of Fiona, given by the product between its mass and its speed:
p=mv=(313 kg)(8 m/s)=2504 kg m/s

Now let's compare it with the momentum of the other animals:
a) the mass of the sea turtle is missing, so we cannot calculate its momentum.
b) the momentum of the dolphin is 
p=mv=(150 kg)(18 m/s)=2700 kg m/s
c) the momentum of the horse is
p=mv=(380 kg)(4 m/s)=1520 kg m/s
d) the momentum of the lion is
p=mv=(190 kg)(11 m/s)=2090 m/s

And we can see that the correct answer is b), because the momentum of the dolphin is greater than the momentum of Fiona.

A truck initially traveling at a speed of 22 m/s increases at a constant rate of 2.4 m/s^2 for 3.2s. What is the total distance
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

82.7 m

Explanation:

u= 22m/s

a= 2.4 m/s^2.

t= 3.2 secs

Therefore the distance travelled can be calculated as follows

S= ut + 1/2at^2

= 22 × 3.2 + 1/2 × 2.4 × 3.2^2

= 70.4 + 1/2×24.58

= 70.4 + 12.29

= 82.7 m

Hence the distance travelled by the truck is 82.7 m

The mini-refrigerator fire was most likely caused by what type of wiring?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer: The copper wiring most likely caused the mini-refrigerator fire.

Explanation: A mini-refrigerator may have one or more evaporator fan motors. These motors have copper wiring. In some situation these copper wires gets overheated. It may result to the firing of the mini-refrigerator.

Therefore, the mini-refrigerator fire was most likely caused by copper wiring.

a 3000 kg and a 7000 kg Mass attract each other with a force of 0.0015 N. What distance separates the two objects (Radius) (Plea
frutty [35]

Answer:

<h3> 3.057m</h3>

Explanation:

According to law of gravitation;

F = GMm/d²

G is the universal gravitation

M and m are the masses

d is the distance between the masses

d² = GMm/F

d² = 6.67408 × 10-11 *3000*7000/0.0015

d² = 140.15568*10^-5/0.0015

d² = 1.4016*10^-3/0.0015

d² = 1.4016*10^-3/1.5*10^-3

d²  = 0.9344*10

d² = 9.344

d = √9.344

d = 3.057m

Hence the distance between the two objects is  3.057m

A basketball is held over head at a height of 2.4 m. The ball is lobbed to a teammate at 8 m/s at an angle of 40'. If the ball i
cupoosta [38]

Explanation:

since both the teammates are of the same height, their height won't matter. Because now the basketball won't cover any vertical distance.

We have to calculate its range the horizontal distance covered by it when tossed from one teammate to the other.

range can be calculated by the formula :-

\boxed{\mathfrak{range =  \frac{  u  {}^{2}   \sin 2\theta }{g} }}

u is the velocity during its take off and \theta is the angle at which its thrown

Given that

  • u = 8m/ s
  • \theta = 40°

calculating range using the above formula

= \frac{ {8}^{2} \sin2(40)  }{10}

=  \frac{64 \times  \sin(80) }{10}

value of sin 80 = 0. 985

=  \frac{64 \times 0.985}{10}

=  \frac{63.027}{10}

= 6.3027

Hence,

\mathfrak { \blue{the \: teammate \: is \:  \red{\underline{6.3027 \: meters} }\: away } }
