Answer:

Mass and Velocity

Explanation:

Momentum = Mass X Velocity

or p=m' x v

since in physics p is quantity momentum and m stands for mass and v stands for velocity.

Hope this helps :)

Imagine holding a basketball in both hands, throwing it straight up as high as you can, and then catching it when it falls. At w

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

C. At the instant the ball reaches its highest point.

Explanation:

When a body is thrown up, it tends to come down due to the influence of gravitational force acting on the body. The body will be momentarily at rest at its maximum point before falling. At this maximum point, the velocity of the body is zero and since force acting on a body is product of the mass and its acceleration, the force acting on the body at that point will be "zero"

Remember, F = ma = m(v/t)

Since v = 0 at maximum height

F = m(0/t)

F = 0N

This shows that the force acting on the body is zero at the maximum height.

Sound travels about 750 miles per hour. if you stand in a canyon and sound a horn, you will hear an echo. suppose it takes about

diamong [38]

The answer to this question would be:3850ft

To answer this question, you need to convert the speed velocity from miles/hour into feet/second. The equation would be: 750 miles/hour x 5280 foot/mile x 1 hour/3600second = 1100 ft/s
Then multiply the time with the velocity= 3.5 second x 1100 ft/s= 3850ft

The ink drops have a mass m = 1.00×10^−11 kg each and leave the nozzle and travel horizontally toward the paper at velocity v =

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

9.98 × 10⁻⁹ C

Explanation:

mass, m = 1.00 × 10⁻¹¹ kg

Velocity, v = 23.0 m/s

Length of plates D₀ = 1.80 cm = 0.018 m

Magnitude of electric field, E = 8.20 × 10⁴ N/C

drop is to be deflected a distance d = 0.290 mm = 0.290 × 10⁻³ m

density of the ink drop = 1000 kg/m^3

Now,

Time = $\frac{\textup{Distance}}{\textup{Velocity}}$

Time = $\frac{\textup{0.016}}{\textup{23}}$

Time = 6.9 × 10⁻⁴ s

Now, force due to the electric field, F = q × E

where, q is the charge

Also, Force = Mass × acceleration

q × E = 1.00 × 10⁻¹¹ × a

a = $\frac{q\times8.20\times10^4}{1\times10^{-11}}$

Now from the Newton's equation of motion

$d=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where,

d is the distance

u is the initial speed

a is the acceleration

t is the time

$0.290\times10^{-3}=0\times(6.9\times10^{-4})+\frac{1}{2}\times(\frac{q\times8.20\times10^4}{1\times10^{-11}})\times(6.9\times10^{-4})^2$

q = 9.98 × 10⁻⁹ C

A projector is placed on the ground 22 ft. away from a projector screen. A 5.2 ft. tall person is walking toward the screen at a

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

y = 67.6 feet, y = 114.4/ (22 - 3t)

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use that light travels in a straight line and some trigonometric relationships, the symbols are in the attached diagram

Large triangle Projector up to the screen

tan θ = y / L

For the small triangle. Projector up to the person

tan θ = y₀ / (L-d)

The angle is the same, so we equate the two equations

y₀ / (L -d) = y / L

y = y₀ L / (L-d)

The distance from the screen (d), we look for it with kinematics

v = d / t

d = v t

we replace

y = y₀ L / (L - v t)

y = 5.2 22 / (22 - 3 t)

y = 114.4 (22 - 3t)⁻¹

This is the equation of the shadow height change as a function of time

For the suggested distance the shadow has a height of

y = 114.4 / (22-13)

y = 67.6 feet
