A dog of mass 10 kg sits on a skateboard of mass 2 kg that is initially traveling south at 2 m/s. The dog jumps off with a veloc

ity of 1 m/s north rela-tive to the ground. Which of the following is the best estimate of the velocity of the skateboard immediately after the dog has jumped?
(A) 1 m/s north(B) 1 m/s south(C) 3 m/s south (D) 7 m/s south(E) 17 m/s south

Answer:

17 m/s south

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of dog = 10 kg

m_2 = Mass of skateboard = 2 kg

v = Combined velocity = 2 m/s

u_1 = Velocity of dog = 1 m/s

u_2 = Velocity of skateboard

In this system the linear momentum is conserved

(m_1+m_2)v+m_1u_1+m_2u_2=0\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\dfrac{(m_1+m_2)v+m_1u_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\dfrac{(10+2)2+10\times 1}{2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-17\ m/s

The velocity of the skateboard will be 17 m/s south as the north is taken as positive

What two gases probably dominated precambrian earth's atmosphere?
galben [10]
I think these gases are water vapor and nitrogen. As the temperature rises, these water vapor molecules, would condense and form the oceans we have. Also, it was said that in the early atmosphere, nitrogen is very abundant and even today the composition of air is 79% by volume.

What do we call the principal SI units that are used to derive all other SI units? Question 3 options:
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer: Base units

The principal SI units that are used to derive all other SI units are called base units. The base units are the units of fundamental quantities e.g.  M L T that is Mass, Length, and Time. All other physical quantities can be written in the fundamental dimension forms. The physical quantities are not measured directly but are build up from the building blocks that are the fundamental quantities which have base units.

Fill in the table below with the properties of acids and bases.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

1) Acids have a sour taste , Bases have a bitter taste.

2) Acids turn blue litmus paper into red , Bases turn red litmus paper into blue.

3) Acids react with most metals to form Hydrogen gas but only a few base react with a few metals to form Hydrogen gas

4) Both will conduct electricity. Both acids & bases are good electrolytes. Strong acids & bases conduct more electricity than that of weak acids & bases

Diferencia entre transferencia y transformación de energía. Da ejemplos de cada caso.
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

La transformación de energía es un proceso en el que la energía se intercambia entre un sistema y el medio ambiente en al menos dos formas de energía diferentes entre sí. Por ejemplo, un panel solar convierte la energía lumínica en energía eléctrica.

En cambio, en la transferencia de energía, esta no cambia su forma sino que es transmitida de un cuerpo a otro. El ejemplo más claro es el de la fogata, que transmite calor al medio ambiente a través de radiación.
