Released weight increases in velocity.

momentum increases as force increases.

momentum= mass x velocity

the wrecking ball has a bigger mass and weight.

the mass of the weight of the wrecking ball is constant, the velocity of the weight as it swings must be increased if momentum is going to be increased.

Answer: A wrecking ball can destroy a building because it is larger, and when it hits something, it exerts a lot of <u>kinetic energy.</u>

A yo-yo is too small and does not exert as much kinetic energy because of it's size.

Hope this helps!

How can magnet be used to produce an electric current
Bess [88]

Answer:

Magnetic fields can be used to make electricity

Moving a magnet around a coil of wire, or moving a coil of wire around a magnet, pushes the electrons in the wire and creates an electrical current. Electricity generators essentially convert kinetic energy (the energy of motion) into electrical energy

The current through a 10 ohm resistor connected to a 120 volt power supply is
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:I=12 A

Explanation:

Given

Resistance R=10 \Omega

Voltage V=120 V

According to ohm's law current through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied.

V\propto I

V=IR

where V=Voltage

I=Current

R=resistance

I=\frac{V}{R}

I=\frac{120}{10}

I=12 A
