Answer:
Iv. The direction of motion of each object is the same.
Explanation:
Momentum of an object is defined as:
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).

Answer:
4086 J
Explanation:
The potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy less the frictional energy. Potential energy= mgh where m represent mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of cliff
Since we have force of air resistance, work done due to air resistance will be product of force and distance
Substituting 10 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 60 m for F then the kinetic energy at the bottom will be
KE= 10*9.81*60- (30*60)=4086 J

We can solve the exercise by using Poiseuille's law. It says that, for a fluid in laminar flow inside a closed pipe,
where:
is the pressure difference between the two ends
is viscosity of the fluid
L is the length of the pipe
is the volumetric flow rate, with
being the section of the tube and
the velocity of the fluid
r is the radius of the pipe.
We can apply this law to the needle, and then calculating the pressure difference between point P and the end of the needle. For our problem, we have:
is the dynamic water viscosity at
L=4.0 cm=0.04 m
and r=1 mm=0.001 m
Using these data in the formula, we get:
However, this is the pressure difference between point P and the end of the needle. But the end of the needle is at atmosphere pressure, and therefore the gauge pressure (which has zero-reference against atmosphere pressure) at point P is exactly 3200 Pa.
