Answer:

The momentum of the two-block system is 18 kg-m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of block A, m_A=4\ kg  

Mass of block B, m_B=6\ kg  

Velocity of block A, v_A=3\ m/s  

Velocity of block B, v_B=-5\ m/s (it is moving in opposite direction)

We need to find the momentum of two block system. It is given by the product of mass and velocity for both blocks i.e.

p=m_Av_A+m_Bv_B

p=4\ kg\times 3\ m/s+6\ kg\times (-5\ m/s)

p = -18 kg-m/s

So, the momentum of two block system is 18 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

How is thermal energy transferred between two objects that are at different temperatures?
OLga [1]

Answer:

when you bring two objects of different temperatures together, energy will always be transferred from the hotter to the cooler object. The objects will exchange thermal energy, until thermal equilibrium is reached, until their temperatures are equal. We say that heat flows from the hotter to the cooler object.

How is the process of cooling from a water vapor to ice different to heating ice to water vapor?
garik1379 [7]

In ice the molecules are stuck rigidly together and vibrate in place. In liquid water they slide and bump past one another. In water vapor they are much farther apart and they bounce around freely.

Which statements are true for two oppositely charged, isolated parallel plates: C=capacitance, U=stored energy (Q and -Q = charg
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) True. The stored energy (U) is proportional to the electric field strength (E). The electric field strength decreases when a dielectric is introduced hence inserting a dielectric decreases U.

2) False. From the formula C=\frac{Q}{V}=\frac{Q}{Vd}, capacitance is inversely proportional to distance hence if the distance is doubled, capacitance decreases.

3) False. As the distance between the electric field and the object increases, its electric field decreases.

4) False. If a dielectric is inserted, the plates are further separated. Q stays the same.

5) True. The electric field strength decreases when a dielectric is introduced and  capacitance is inversely proportional to electric field hence Inserting a dielectric increases C

6) True. If a dielectric is inserted, the plates are further separated. Q stays the same.

7) True. When the distance is doubled, U increases
