Answer:Momentum

Explanation:

Product of an object mass and velocity is called Momentum. Basically momentum is the measure of mass in motion . More is the mass more will be the momentum and similar applies for velocity.

For example a bus moving with low velocity can have a same momentum as that of a bullet moving with a very high velocity

Momentum is denoted by Symbol P

\vec{P}=m\vec{v}

Professor Stefanovic is spinning a bucket of water by extending his arm and rotating his shoulder in class to show the effects o
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

a ) 2.368 rad/s

b) 3.617 rad/s

Explanation:

the minimum angular velocity that Prof. Stefanovic needs to spin the bucket for the water not to fall out can be determined by applying force equation in a circular path

i.e

F_{inward } = F_G + F_T   ------ equation (1)

where;

F_{inward} = m *a_c

F_{inward} = m*r* \omega^2

Also

F_G = m*g

F_T = 0          since; that is the initial minimum angular velocity to keep the water in the bucket

Now; we can rewrite our equation as :

mr \omega^2= mg + 0\\\omega^2 = \frac{m*g}{m*r}\\\omega^2 = \frac{g}{r}\\\omega = \sqrt{\frac{g}{r} \ \  }     ------ equation \ \ \ {2}

So; Given that:

The rope that is attached to the bucket is lm long  and his arm is 75 cm long.

we have our radius r = 1 m +  75 cm

= ( 1 + 0.75 ) m

= 1.75 m

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Replacing our values into equation (2) ; we have:

\omega = \sqrt{ \frac{9.81}{1.75}}\\\omega = 2.368 \  rad/s

b) if he detaches the rope and spins the bucket by holding it with his hand ; then the radius = 0.75 m

∴

\omega = \sqrt{ \frac{9.81}{0.75}}\\\omega = 3.617 \  rad/s

g An arrow is shot straight up in the air at an initial speed of 15.5 m/s. After how much time is the arrow moving downward at a
Sati [7]

Answer:

2.11 seconds

Explanation:

We use the kinematic equation for the velocity in a constantly accelerated motion under the acceleration of gravity (g):

v_f=v_i-g*t\\-5.2 = 15.5 - 9.8\,t\\9.8 \,t= 15.5 + 5.2\\t = 20.7/9.8\\t = 2.11 \,\,sec

A 9.0-V battery is connected to a resistor so that there is a 0.50-A current through the resistor.For how long should the batter
salantis [7]

Answer:

35.6 s

Explanation:

The power through the resistor is given by:

P=VI

where V=9.0 V is the voltage and I=0.50 A is the current. Substituting into the formula, we find

P=(9.0 V)(0.5 A)=4.5 W

The power is also equal to:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where W is the work done while t is the time taken. Since we know the work done, W=160 J, we can re-arrange the equation to find the time taken:

t=\frac{W}{P}=\frac{160 J}{4.5 W}=35.6 s

Explain how Newton's third law is applied when a rocket ship is being launched?
garri49 [273]

Newton's Third Law states that "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". In a rocket, burning fuel creates a push on the front of the rocket pushing it forward. This creates an equal and opposite push on the exhaust gas backwards.
