Explanation:
1st- states that when two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
2nd- states that the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it. (most important law)
3rd- states that when two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. (law of action/reaction)
Electrons are found outside of the nucleus.
Answer:
the total momentum is 8 .2 kg m/s in north direction.
Explanation:
given,
mass(m₁) 3.00 kg, moving north at v₁ = 3.00 m/s
mass(m₂) 4.00 kg, moving south at v₂ = 3.70 m/s
mass(m₃) 7.00 kg, moving north at v₃ = 2.00 m/s
north as the positive axis
south as the negative axis
now
total momentum = m₁v₁ + m₂ v₂ + m₃ v₃
total momentum = 3 x 3 - 4 x 3.7 + 7 x 2
= 9 - 14.8 + 14
= 8 .2 kg m/s
hence, the total momentum is 8 .2 kg m/s in north direction.
