if a 5-kg bowling ball is projected upward witha velocity of 2.0 m/s, then what is the recoil velocity of the Earth(mass=6.0×10^

24kg)

by the concept of momentum conservation we can say

if net force on a system of mass is ZERO then its momentum will remain conserved

Here a ball is projected upwards so if we take Ball + Earth as a system then total momentum of the system will remain conserved

Initially when ball is on the surface of earth the system has zero momentum and hence we can say after throwing the ball momentum of earth + ball must be zero

now using same equation we can say

P_{ball} + P_{earth} = 0

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2= 0

given that

m_1 = 5 kg

v_1 = 2 m/s

m_2 = 6 * 10^{24} kg

from above equation velocity of earth will be

v_2 = \frac{m_1 v_1}{m_2}

v_2 = \frac{5*2}{6 * 10^{24}}

v_2 = 1.67 * 10^{-24} m/s

so above will be the recoil speed of earth

A wave is traveling through a medium. As it travels, it displaces particles of matter in the same direction as the wave is trave
Alexxandr [17]

<u>Answer</u>

longitudinal wave because the particles move parallel to the direction that the wave is traveling.


<u>Explanation</u>

There are 2 types of a wave, electromagnetic and mechanical wave. These waves can also be categorized into two, longitudinal ans transverse waves.

longitudinal wave is a wave whose particles vibration is in the direction of wave travel.

Transverse wave is a wave whose vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.

An electron and a proton have the same kinetic energy upon entering a region of constant magnetic field and their velocity vecto
kupik [55]

Answer: rp/re= me/mp= 544 * 10^-6.

Explanation: To calculate this problem we have to consider the circular movement by the electron and proton inside a magnetic field.

Then the dynamic equation for the circular movement is given by:

Fcentripetal= m*ω^2.r

q*v*B=m*ω^2.r

we write this for each particle then we have the following:

q*v*B=me* ω^2*re

q*v*B=mp* ω^2*rp

rp/re=me/mp=9.1*10^-31/1.67*10^-27=544*10^-6
