How does momentum relate to impulse ?
fomenos

Answer:

C. Impulse = F*t=(m*a)*t= m*(a*t) = m*Dv= D(Momentum) (“D” here’s mean Delta so change in)

Explanation:

In fact, the impulse is equal to the change in momentum of an object.

Impulse is defined as the product between the force (F) and the time (t):

I=Ft

however, the force is defined as the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):

F=ma\\I=(ma)t

But the product a (acceleration) times t (time) is equal to the change in velocity of the object:

I=m(at)=m \Delta v

And this is exactly the definition of change in momentum:

I = m\Delta v = \Delta p

s it possible for a system to have negative potential energy? Is it possible for a system to have negative potential energy? No,
frez [133]

Answer: Yes it possible for a system to have negative potential energy, since the choice of the zero of potential energy is arbitrary.

Explanation:

Potential energy is defined as the energy present in an object due to its position.

Mathematically,   P.E = mgh

A potential energy can be negative also. This is because zero potential energy is arbitrary. For example, at the top of a building the choice of potential energy can be zero.

Therefore, the potential energy below the building will be negative.

Which medium caused the most bending of light as it passed through?
babunello [35]
I wasn't there observing the experiment while you and your class
performed it, so I don't really know how it was set up, or what
happened. 

But I can tell you this:  Light doesn't bend while passing through
any medium.  It only bends at the boundary where one medium
meets a different one.

A man travels a distance if 1.5 m towards east ,then 2m towards south and 4.5 m towards east.
diamong [38]

Answer:

<h2>i) 8.0m</h2><h2>ii) 6.32m</h2>

Explanation:

i) The total distance traveled will be the sum total of individual distances traveled by the man.

If the man travels a distance if 1.5 m towards east ,then 2m towards south and 4.5 m towards east, the total distance traveled will be expressed as; 1.5m+2m+4.5m

= 8.0m

ii) In order to get the man resultant displacement, we will use the Pythagoras theorem. Since the man travels a distance if 1.5 m and 4.5m towards east, the total distance taken towards east will be 6.0m and the distance traveled towards south is 2.0m. The resultant displacement of the man is expressed as;

R = \sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}  }

Note that the eastward direction is the x-direction while the south direction is the y-direction.

x = 6.0m and y = 2.0m

R = \sqrt{6^{2}+2^{2}  } \\R = \sqrt{36+4}\\ R = \sqrt{40} \\R = 6.32m

The displacement of the man is 6.32m
