Earth's atmosphere is important because it contains oxygen without which we wouldn't be alive. It also prevents harmful rays from space or smaller meteors from entering and reaching Earth.

The momentum of a falling rock is found to be 200 kg m/s. What is the mass of the rock if it falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 40 \ kilograms}}

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of velocity and mass. The formula is:

p=m*v

We know the rock is falling. Its momentum is 200 kilograms meters per second and its velocity is 5 meters per second. Substitute the values into the formula.

200 \ kg \ m/s = m * 5.0 \ m/s

We are solving for m, the mass. We must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 5 meters per second. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divided both sides by 5.0 m/s.

\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=\frac{ m* 5.0 \ m/s }{5.0 \ m/s}

\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=m

The units of meters per second (m/s) cancel.

\frac{200 \ kg}{5.0 } =m

40 \ kg = m

The falling rock has a mass of <u>40 kilograms.</u>

On a spinning ride at the fair, it is inertia that keeps you moving in a circle. true or false​
lions [1.4K]

False, the inertia does not keep us moving in a circle on a spinning ride at the fair.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

Inertia is the resisting force of any object which resists in change in their state. If an object is moving the inertia will act in opposing direction to the force acting on the object stopping its motion.

Similarly, if an object resembles at rest, then the inertia will be acting against the force tending to move that stationary object. So, on a spinning ride at fair, when a person sits there, the inertia acting on the person will prevent the person to falling down from the fair and not in moving in a circle.

When the starter motor on a car is engaged, there is a 310 A current in the wires between the battery and the motor. Suppose the
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Diameter will be 351.42 mm

Explanation:

We have given current flowing in the copper wire i = 310 A

Voltage drop across the wire V = 0.55 volt

We know that resistance is given by R=\frac{V}{i}=\frac{0.55}{310}=0.00177\Omega

Length of the copper wire l = 1 m

Resisitivity of the copper wire \rho =1.72\times 10^{-8}\Omega m

We know that resistance R=\frac{\rho l}{A}

0.00177=\frac{1.72\times 10^{-8}\times  1}{A}

A=969.4545\times 10^{-8}m^2

As area A=\pi r^2

3.14\times r^2=969.4545\times 10^{-8}

r=17.57\times 10^{-4}m

So diameter d=17.57\times 10^{-4}\times 2=35.142\times \times 10^{-4}m = 351.42 mm

In the diagram, q1=+6.25 * 10^ -8 C. What is the potential difference when you go from point A to point B? Include the correct s
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Moving a unit "positive" test charge from A to B will result in a reduction in potential

V = K Q / R      potential at a point

V2 - V1 = K Q (1 / .4 - 1 / .15) = = k Q (.15 - .4) / .06 = -4.17 K Q

V2 - V1 = -4.17 * 9 & 10E9 * 6.25 E-8

V2 - V1 = -4.17 * 562.5 J/C

V = - 2346 Volts
