6.If a 250. gram cart moving to the right with a velocity of .31 m/s collides inelastically with a 500. gram cart traveling to t

he left with a velocity of -0.22 m/s, what is the total momentum of the system before the collision

Answer:

The total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.    

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

Initial velocity of the cart, u = 0.31 m/s (due right)

Mass of another cart, m' = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Initial velocity of the another cart u' = -0.22 m/s (due left)

Let p is the total momentum of the system before the collision. It is given by :

p=mu+m'u'\\\\p=0.25\times 0.31+0.5\times (-0.22)\\\\p=-0.0325\ kg-m/s

So, the total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of I cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

initial velocity of I cart, u = 0.31 m/s

mass of II cart, m' = 500 g =0.5 kg

initial velocity of II cart, u' = - 0.22 m/s

Total momentum before collision = m x u + m' x u'

                                                        = 0.25 x 0.31 - 0.5 x 0.22

                                                        = 0.0775 - 0.11

                                                        = - 0.0325 kg m/s

Bob is studying waves in science and learns that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplit
Mrrafil [7]
For a simple harmonic motion energy is given with:
E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2
Where k is a constant that depends on the type of the wave you are looking at and A is amplitude.
Let's calculate the energy of the wave using two different amplitudes given in the problem:
E_1=\frac{1}{2}k(1)^2=\frac{1}{2}k\\E_2=\frac{1}{2}k(2)^2=\frac{4}{2}k=2k\\
We can see that energy associated with the wave is 4 times smaller when we decrease its amplitude by half. So the answer should be C.

You may jump higher because the more the mass of the planet, the more gravitational force. There is less mass(and gravity) on Callisto so you wouldn’t be weighed down as much and can jump higher. Whereas on Jupiter there is more weight holding you down.

Bess [88]

Answer:

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg

Explanation:

Given

Mass = 1,990,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000\ kg

Required

Rewrite using scientific notation

The format of a number in scientific notation is

Digit = a * 10^n

Where 1 \geq\ a\geq\ 10

So the given parameter can be rewritten as

Mass = 1.99 * 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000\ kg

Express as a power of 10

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg

Hence, the equivalent of the mass of the sun in scientific notation is:

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg
