Answer:

The dog has more momentum than the pony.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must remember the formula for calculating momentum, which is given below:

momentum = p = m*v

where m represents the mass of the object and v represents the velocity of the object

Using this knowledge, let's calculate the momentum for the dog and the pony.

Dog: p = m*v = (2kg)*(41 m/s) = 82 kg*m/s

Pony: p = m*v = (75kg)*(1 m/s) = 75 kg*m/s

Since 82 > 75, we can conclude that the dog has more momentum.

Hope this helps!

If the pendulum is brought on the moon where the gravitational acceleration is about g/6, approximately what will its period now

Andru [333]

Answer:

The new period will be √6 *T

Explanation:

period ,T=2π√(L/g) ................equation 1

where T is the period on earth

gravitational acceleration on the moon is g/6

T1 = 2π√[L/(g/6)]

T1=2π√(6L/g) ...............equation 2

divide equation 2 by 1

T1/T =2π√(6L/g)÷2π√(L/g)

T1/T =√(6L/L)

T1/T =√6

T1 = √6 *T

In order from largest to smallest these terms are:UniverseGalaxySolar systemStarPlanetMoonAsteroidWe can generally say that a Moon is larger than an asteroid however some moons are quite large while others are smaller than many known asteroids. Asteroids are small rocky bodies that orbit the Sun, while moons are objects that orbit planets. Jupiter and Saturn have attracted many objects out of the asteroid belt and gathered them as moons.

Explain the action-reaction forces when someone kicks a soccer ball.

larisa [96]

According to Newton's third law, the foot and the soccer ball exert equal and opposite forces on each other. An action force and the reaction force that results are called a force pair. Newton's third law states that the forces in a force pair are equal in size, but opposite in direction.
