When we look at a blue recycle bin, we see blue because...

6 0

When light hits an object, that object absorbs some light, and reflects other light. A blue recycle bin absorbs red and green light, but reflects blue light. The blue light then hits your retina at the back of your eye and a signal is sent to the visual cortex of your brain. Your brain then perceives this signal as <em>colour.</em>

Object A has mass mA = 9 kg and initial momentum vector pA,i = < 20, -6, 0 > kg · m/s, just before it strikes object B, wh

Answer:

$p= kg m/s$

Explanation:

Momentum is a vector quantity that represents the "amount of motion" of an object.

Mathematically, the momentum of an object is given by

$p=mv$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity

Since momentum is a vector, it also has a direction, which is the same as the velocity.

Therefore, if we have two objects, the total momentum of the two objects will be obtained from the vector sum of the individual momenta of the two objects.

In this problem we have:

$p_A= kg m/s$ is the momentum of object A

$p_B = kg m/s$ is the momentum of object B

Therefore, the total momentum of objects A and B can be obtained by adding each components of A to the corresponding component of B, so:

$p_x = 20 +6 = 26 kg m/s\\p_y = -6 +6 = 0 kg m/s\\p_z = 0 + 0 = 0 kg m/s$

So the total initial momentum is

$p= kg m/s$

What is due to acids formed when atmospheric and volcanic gases mix with water

Ilya [14]

Answer:

Acid rain results when sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOX) are emitted into the atmosphere and transported by wind and air currents. The SO2 and NOX react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form sulfuric and nitric acids. These then mix with water and other materials before falling to the ground.
