Momentum helps us quantify how much movement an object has. For example, if we want to know how much movement an object of 2 kg moving at 4 m/s has, we take their product.

An object is released from rest and falls a distance h during the first second of time. How far will it fall during the next sec
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

E. 3h

Explanation:

We know that

u = 0 m/s.

velocity after t = 1s

v = u+gt = 0+9.81 x 1s= 9.81 m/s

distance covered in 1st sec

= =>> ut+0.5 x g x t²

=>>0 + 0.5x 9.81 x 1 = 4.90m

Let 4.90 be h

distance travelled in 2nd second will now be used

So velocity after t = 1s

=>>1 x t+ 0.5 x g x t²

=>9.81x 1 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 1 = 3 x 4.90

So since h= 4.90

Then the ans is 3x h = 3h

During a neighborhood baseball game in a vacant lot, a particularly wild hit sends a 0.148 kg baseball crashing through the pane
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of baseball, m = 0.148 kg

initial velocity, u = 15.5 m/s

final velocity, v = 10.1 m/s

Impulse is defined as the change in momentum of the body.

Impulse = change in momentum

I = m (v - u)

I = 0.148 (10.1 - 15.5)

I = - 0.8 Ns

Explain how a compass works using scientific terminology.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

A compass works by detecting and responding to the Earth's natural magnetic fields. The Earth has an iron core that is part liquid and part solid crystal, due to gravitational pressure. It is believed that movement in the liquid outer core is what produces the Earth's magnetic field.
