What is the mass of a large ship that has a momentum of 1.60x10^9 kg*m/s and is moving at a velocity of 10m/s?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

160000000 kg.

Explanation:

p=mv

p=1.6x10^9

v=10m/s

rearrange and substitute:

(1.6x10^9)=m(10)

m=(1.6x10^9)/10

m= 1.6x10^8 kg.

If two planets orbit a star, but planet B is twice as far from the star as planet A, planet A will receive ____ times the flux t
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The nearest plant (A) receives 4 times more radiation from the farthest plant

Explanation:

The energy emitted by the star is distributed on the surface of a sphere, whereby intensity received is the power emitted between the area of ​​the sphere

                I = P / A

               P = I A

The area of ​​the sphere is

               A = 4π r²

Since the amount of radiation emitted by the star is constant, we can write this expression for the position of the two planets

               P = I₁ A₁ = I₂ A₂

               I₁ / I₂ = A₂ / A₁

 Suppose index 1 corresponds to the nearest planet,

            r2 = 2 r₁

            I₁ / I₂ = r₁² / r₂²

            I₁ / I₂ = r₁² / (2r₁)²

            I₁ / I₂ = ¼

           4 I₁ = I₂

The nearest plant (A) receives 4 times more radiation from the farthest plant

The force of air resistance acts to oppose the motion of an object moving through the air. A ball is thrown upward and eventuall
ozzi

Answer:

For a (1) net force will be greater than the weight of the ball

For b (2) net force will be lesser than the weight of the ball

Explanation:

For (a):

For a linear motion of a system, one must have to understand, according to Newtons first law of motion, which is also known as law of inertia, a body which is at motion will continue to move or a body at rest will continue to rest until an external force is applied to it. In the given case, when ball goes upward, one thing is for sure, the net force is greater than the weight of the ball, because three forces are applied during upward motion:

gravity or weight which is pulling the ball downward,

air resistance, which is also acting downward as it is creating friction between ball and air molecules, so creating hindrance in upward motion

External force to throw ball upward

So

Net Force = Upward force - Air friction - Weight

Since ball is going upward, so net force is greater than both weight and air friction which are pulling ball downward.

For (b):

For a linear motion of a system, one must have to understand, according to Newtons first law of motion, which is also known as law of inertia, a body which is at motion will continue to move or a body at rest will continue to rest until an external force is applied to it. In the given case, when ball goes downward, one thing is for sure, the net force is lesser than the weight of the ball, because two forces are applied during downward motion:

gravity or weight which is pulling the ball downward,

air resistance, which is acting upward as it is creating friction between ball and air molecules, so creating hindrance in downward motion

So

Net Force = Weight - Air friction

Since ball is going downward, so weight is greater than net force which is in this case is air friction which is pulling ball upward.
