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.

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery until it is fully charged. Then, the capacitor is disconnected from the bat
Helga [31]

Answer:

The potential between the plates will decrease.

Explanation:

An insulator is usually placed between the parallel plates and is also called a dielectric because it makes the amount of charge a capacitor can accommodate to increase at a particular potential difference.

Furthermore, the dielectric effect will make the electric field of the charged capacitor which is not connected to a source of supply to decrease.

Now, when the battery is removed, the charge Q remains constant and Capacity C will increase.

Formula for the potential difference is here;

V = Q/C

Since the numerator Q is constant and the denominator C increases, it means the potential difference V will decrease

Why is the curve between 1950 and 1980 relatively flat and centered around zero degrees difference from the baseline? (Hint: how
zimovet [89]

Look at the title of the graph, in small print under it.

Each point is "compared to 1950-1980 baseline". So the set of data for those years is being compared to itself. No wonder it matches up pretty close !

Name one contact force and one force that acts through a force field
nirvana33 [79]
A contact force is a type of force which act on an object by coming in contact with the object. Examples of contact force that acts through a force field are: applied force, frictional force, air resistance force, tension, spring force, etc.
  Examples of forces that act through a force field are gravitational force, electromagnetic force, the weak interaction and the strong interaction.

Use the mass spectrum of europium to determine the atomic mass of europium. where the peak representing eu-151 has an exact mass
slavikrds [6]

Answer: The atomic mass of a Europium atom is 151.96445 amu.

From the given information:

Percent intensity is 91.61% of Europium atom of molecular weight 150.91986 amu.

Percent intensity is 100.00% of Europium atom of molecular weight 152.92138 amu.

Abundance of Eu-151 atom:

X_{Eu-151}=\frac{0.9161}{0.9161+1.000}=0.4781

Abundance of Eu-153 atom:

X_{Eu-153}=\frac{1.000}{0.9161+1.000}=0.5219

Atomic mass of Europium atom:

A=(X_{Eu-151}\times150.91986+X_{Eu-153}\times152.92138)amu\\A=(0.4781\times150.91986+0.5219\times152.92138)amu=151.96445 amu

Therefore, the atomic mass of a Europium atom is 151.96445 amu.
