v2 = ?

m1 = 10kg

m2 = 70kg

v1 = 4m/s

E1 = E2

E1 = 1/2 * m1 * v1^2 = 1/2 * 10kg * 4m/s^2 = 80J

E2 = 1/2 * m2 * v2^2 = 80 J

v2 = √(E2/(2 * m2)) = √(80J/(2 * 70kg)) = about 0.76m/s

Answer:

V=0.5m/s

Explanation:

A large 10.kg medicine ball is caught by a 70.kg student on the track team. If the ball was moving at 4.0 m/s, how fast will the student be moving after catching the ball?

taking it stepwisely

This problem can be solved with the knowledge of momentum.

the total momentum before collision must be equal to the total momentum after collusion.

This is an inelastic collision because the object and the boy will stick together after catching the boy.

Therefore

m1u1+m2u2= (m1+m2)V

m1=mass of the medicine ball 10kg

m2= mass of the student,70kg

U1=4m/s

u2=0m/s

V=common velocity after the student catches the medicine ball

10*4+70*0= (10+70)V

40=80V

V=40/80

V=0.5m/s

The student will move with a speed of 0.5m/s after catching the ball.

Which sentence provides evidence that heat travels from Earth’s mantle up to its crust?
olasank [31]

B. Earth’s outer surface is cooler than its interior layers.

Explanation:

  • The option given above is showing us that the temperature in the interior of the earth is higher than the temperature in the outer layer.
  • There is travel of heat from the inner core of the earth to the earth's crust. Due to the loss of heat when it reaches the outer layer, there arises a temperature difference.
  • The heat loss is due to the absorption of heat during its transfer. Hence, option B is the answer.

The absolute magnitude of a star________.
serg [7]
<span>The absolute magnitude of a star is how bright it would appear to us
if it were located ten parsecs (about 32.6 light years) from us.  So it's
a way of treating all stars equally ... on a "level playing field" ... and it
describes each star's actual brightness. </span>

PLEAS HELP.
koban [17]

<span>A: put an atom on a poster in the exhibit
     Good luck.  The poster itself is made of trillions of trillions of trillions
     of atoms.  You could not see the extra one any easier than you could
     see the ones that are already there, and even if you could, it would be
     lost in the crowd.
 
B: use a life size drawing of an atom
     Good luck.  Nobody has ever seen an atom.  Atoms are too small
     to see.  That's a big part of the reason that nobody knew they exist
     until less than 200 years ago.

D: set up a microscope so that visitors can view atoms
     Good luck.  Atoms are way too small to see with a microscope.

</span><span><span>C: Display a large three dimensional model of an atom.
    </span> </span>Finally !  A suggestion that makes sense.
     If something is too big or too small to see, show a model of it
         that's just the right size to see.
