A 700 kg racecar slowed from 30 m/s to 15 m/s. What is the change in momentum

Physics
1 answer:
Lerok [7]3 years ago
8 0

Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

Original momentum  =  (700 kg) x (30 m/s)  =  21,000 kg-m/s

Final momentum = (700 kg) x (15 m/s)  =  10,500 kg-m/s

Change in momentum  =  - 10,500 kg-m/s .

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:
34kurt

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now

The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE

The equivalent capacitance is going to be: \frac{1}{C_{total}}=\frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}

And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE

And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE

Here's a basketball problem: A 87.2 kg basketball player is running in the positive direction at 7.0 m/s. She is met head-on by
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

2.47 m/s backwards

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂...................... Equation 1

Where m₁ and m₂ = mass of the first basketball player and second basket ball player respectively, u₁ and u₂ = initial velocity of the first basket player and the second basketball player respectively, v₁ and v₂ = The final velocity of the first basket ball player and second basket ball player respectively.

Making v₁ the subject of the equation,

v₁ = (m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ - m₂v₂)/m₁.......................... Equation 2.

Given: m₁ = 87.2 kg, m₂ = 102.0 kg, u₁ = 7.0 m/s, u₂ = -5.2 m/s, v₂ = 2.9 m/s

Note: u₂ is negative because it moves towards the first basket ball player.

Substitute into equation 2

v₁ = [87.2(7.0)+102(-5.2) - (102×2.9)]/87.2

v₁ = (610.4-530-295.8)/87.2

v₁ = -215.4/87.2

v₁ = -2.47 m/s.

Thus the velocity of the 87.2 kg player = 2.47 m/s backwards.

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! Is string a ferromagnetic material?
Contact [7]

Answer:

See, the string is made of nickel and steel (iron+carbon), materials that are ferromagnetic. That is, a magnet attracts guitar strings. When this ferromagnetic metal vibrates in the magnetic field of the pickup, that disturbs the red field lines which also cross through the coil (not shown).

A beam of microwaves with λ = 0.9 mm is incident upon a 9 cm slit. At a distance of 1.5 m from the slit, what is the approximate
liq [111]

Answer:

3 cm

Explanation:

According to the question,

D=1.5 m.

d=9 cm.

\lambda =0.9 mm.

Now the approximate slit's image width is equal to width of central maxima.

And width of central maxima is twice the width from center to first maxima

So,

y=2\frac{\lambda (D)}{d}.

Substitute all the variable in above equation.

y=\frac{(2)0.9\times 10^{-2} m(1.5 m) }{0.09 m}.

y=3 cm.
