A ball is dropped and bounces off the floor. Its speed is the same immediately before and immediately after the collision. Which

of the following is true about the collision between the ball and the floor?
a) The ball's momentum is conserved.
b) The ball's momentum changes direction but not magnitude.
c) The ball's momentum changes magnitude but not direction.
d) The impulse delivered to the ball by the floor is zero.
e) The impulse delivered to the floor by the ball is zero.

Answer:

option B.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B.

when the ball drops, the velocity of the ball before the collision is v

After the collision, the velocity of the ball is the same but in the opposite direction.

Impulse delivered to the ball and the floor, in this case, is not zero.

The magnitude of the momentum remains the same but the direction of the ball changes.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Period of brightness variation and luminosity.

Explanation:

The Cepheid variables are used as distance indicators. This requires estimation of periods and (usually) intensity-mean magnitudes in order to establish a period—apparent luminosity relation. It is particularly important for the techniques employed to be as accurate and efficient as possible.

The ball has 7.35 joules of potential energy at position B. At position A, all of the energy changes to kinetic energy. The velo
Lina20 [59]
I assume that the ball is stationary (v=0) at point B, so its total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to 7.35 J. 
At point A, all this energy has converted into kinetic energy, which is:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
And since K=7.35 J, we can find the velocity, v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 7.35 J}{1.5 kg} }=3.1 m/s

Earth's core is the source of the energy that drives the movement of tectonic
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

B. Convection

D. Conduction

Explanation:

Conduction and convection are the two most prominent processes that helps transfer energy outward to the earth's crust.

  • Energy within the core is a function of the radioactive decay and frictional heating.
  • Also, heat that accreted during the formation of the earth is a significant source of internal energy.
  • The heat is conducted away by the process of convection. This is possible due to temperature differences between different parts of the earth
  • Conduction is made made possible due to the metallic bodies in the core and other part of the inner earth.

The first law states that “objects at rest and objects in motion remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force”. Keeping the ice smooth will make sure there is not friction, friction would slow the puck down
