Answer:

Iv. The direction of motion of each object is the same.

Explanation:

Momentum of an object is defined as:

p= mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

Since v is a vector, it follows that p is also a vector, and it has the same direction of the velocity. This means that if two objects have same momentum, then the direction of their momentum vector is also the same: therefore, the direction of motion of each object must be the same.

The other options are wrong, because they just state that only one of the two quantities involved in the equation (mass or velocity) is the same, but the two objects can actually have the same momentum even if they have different masses and velocities (in fact, the only thing that matters is that the product between mass and velocity is the same).

<h3>What is the distance?</h3>

Distance is a numerical representation of the length between two objects or locations.

The intensity I of light varies inversely as the square of the distance D from the source;

I∝(1/D²)

The ratio of the intensity of the two cases;

\rm \frac{I_1}{I_2} =(\frac{D_2}{D_1} )^2\\\\ \rm \frac{2}{I_2} =(\frac{20}{5} )^2\\\\ \frac{2}{I_2} =4^2 \\\\ I_2= \frac{2}{16} \\\\  I_2= 0.125 \ foot-candles

Hence, the intensity on a screen 20 ft from the light will be 0.125 foot-candles

A jogger travels a route that has two parts. The first is a displacement of 3 km due south, and the second involves a displaceme
spayn [35]

Answer:

a) 2.41 km

b) 38.8°

Questions c and d are illegible.

Explanation:

We can express the displacements as vectors with origin on the point he started (0, 0).

When he traveled south he moved to (-3, 0).

When he moved east he moved to (-3, x)

The magnitude of the total displacement is found with Pythagoras theorem:

d^2 = dx^2 + dy^2

Rearranging:

dy^2 = d^2 - dx^2

dy = \sqrt{d^2 - dx^2}

dy = \sqrt{3.85^2 - 3^2}  = 2.41 km

The angle of the displacement vector is:

cos(a) = dx/d

a = arccos(dx/d)

a = arccos(3/3.85) = 38.8°

Which of the following is most likely not a case of uniform circular motion
Ivan

Answer:

Motion of a racing car on a circular track

Explanation:

Uniform circular motion means the motion of the object is in a circle with a CONSTANT SPEED.

The racing car will accelerate during its motion. Hence, it is not a uniform circular motion.

A ball hits a wall horizontally at 6m/s and rebounces at 4.4m/s the ball is in contact with wall for 0.04 sec. what is the accel
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 6 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 4.4 m/s

Time taken (t) = 0.04sec

Find:

Acceleration (a) = ?

Computation:

We know that,

⇒ v = u + at

⇒ a = (v - u) / t

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (4.4 - 6) / 0.04

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (-1.6) / 0.04

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²
