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).

A charged particle moves in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field.Which of the following would increase the period of the
Bond [772]

Answer:

Increasing its charge

Increasing the field strength

Explanation:

For a charged particle moving in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field, the centripetal force is provided by the magnetic force, so we can write:

qvB = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity

B is the magnetic field

m is the mass

r is the radius of the orbit

The period of the motion is

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}

Re-arranging for r

r=\frac{Tv}{2\pi}

And substituting into the previous equation

qvB = m \frac{Tv^3}{2\pi}

Solving for T,

T=\frac{2\pi q B}{m v^2}

So we see that the period is:

- proportional to the charge and the magnetic field

- inversely proportional to the mass and the square of the speed

So the following will increase the period of the particle's motion:

Increasing its charge

Increasing the field strength

Tsunamis are fast-moving waves often generated by underwater earthquakes. In the deep ocean their amplitude is barely noticable,
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

a) V = 195.70 m/s

b) f=3.02 × 10⁻⁴ Hz

c) T = 3311.25 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength, λ = 646 Km = 646000 m

Distance traveled = 3410 Km = 3410000 m

Time = 4.84 h = 4.84 × 3600 s = 17424 seconds

a) The speed (V) of the wave is given as

V = distance / time

V = 3410000 m/ 17424 seconds

or

V = 195.70 m/s

b) The frequency (f) of the wave is given as:

f = V / λ

f= 195.70 / 646000

f=3.02 × 10⁻⁴ Hz

c) The time period (T)  is given as:

T = 1/ f

T = 1/ (3.02 × 10⁻⁴) Hz

T = 3311.25 seconds

14. Which is the relationship between photon energy and frequency?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency and thus, equivalently, is inversely proportional to the wavelength. The higher the photon's frequency, the higher its energy.

i hope this helps.

A compact car has a maximum acceleration of 2.0 m/s2 when it carries only the driver and has a total mass of 1100 kg . you may w
nadya68 [22]

According to Newton`s  law. Force exerted by car,

F = m a = 1100 kg \times 2 m/s^2 = 2200 \ N

After adding an additional 400 kg of mass, the force will be same therefore the acceleration

F = 2200 \ N = (1100 \ kg + 400 \ kg)  a \\\\ a = \frac{2200 \ N}{1500 \ kg} = 1.47 \ m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration after adding the masses is 1.47 \ m/s^2.

You have learned of two fundamental units that are not vector quantities. Which are they?
Mila [183]

Answer:

Mass and time are not vector quantities .

Explanation:

All the physical quantities can be classified into two major categories that is :

  • Scalar
  • Vector

Scalar quantities

  • They are those that describes only  the magnitude and they are regarded as incomplete quantities as they don't provide complete information.

               For example :  Speed ,Mass, Time etc

Vector quantities

  • They are complete quantities that can be described in magnitude as well as direction .

         For example : Velocity ,gravity ,Acceleration etc
