Answer: The product of mass and velocity is momentum.

Explanation: A good way to summarize momentum is to say momentum is mass in motion. All objects have mass, but not all objects are moving; therefore, not all objects have momentum. If an object is moving, though, it has momentum.

It's option B
Momentum is directly proportional to the object's mass and also its velocity.thus the greater its mass or the greater its velocity,the greater its momentum.

Answer:

Explanation:

f = ma

2 x 12 = 24

answer could differ since it's rolling down a ramp. if an angle is given our approach differs.

To construct a solenoid, you wrap insulated wire uniformly around a plastic tube 7.1 cm in diameter and 57 cm in length. You wou

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

We need about 8769 meters of wire to produce a 2.6 kilogauss magnetic field.

Explanation:

Recall the formula for the magnetic field produced by a solenoid of length L. N turns, and running a current I:

$B=\mu_0\,\frac{N}{L} \,I$

So, in our case, where B = 2.6 KG = 0.26 Tesla; I is 3 amperes, and L = 0.57 m, we can find what is the number of turns needed;

$B=\mu_0\,\frac{N}{L} \,I\\0.26=4\,\pi\,10^{-7}\frac{N}{0.57} \,3\\N=\frac{0.26*0.57\,10^7}{12\,\pi} \\N=39311.27$

Therefore we need about 39312 turns of wire. Considering that each turn must have a length of $\pi\,D$ , where D is the diameter of the plastic cylindrical tube, then the total length of the wire must be:

$Length=39312\,(\pi\,D)=39312\,(\pi\,0.071)\approx 8768.66\,\,m$

We can round it to about 8769 meters.

What are the units of acceleration?

Marina86 [1]

Acceleration is any change in speed or direction of motion.

The dimension of speed is [length/time],
so a change is [length/time²].

Popular units include [meter/second²] and [feet/second²] .
________________________

Direction almost always boils down to an angle, (which technically
has no dimensions), so a change in direction is [angle/time] .

Popular units include [radian/second] and [degree/second] .

What is the intensity of a sound with a measured intensity level of 84 db? (i0 = 10-12 w/m2)?

Ivahew [28]

The unit measurement for sound can be expressed in terms of intensity and in decibels. The intensity of sound is the measure of its power over unit area. The common unit of measurement is in decibels. This is commonly used in measuring the extent of noise. The conversion from intensity to the decibel unit is through logarithmic function. The formula is:

dB = 10 log(I/I0), where I0 is 10^-12 Watts per square meter

Substituting the values to the equation,

84 = 10log(I/10^-12)
I = 0.0002512 W/m2

In scientific notation the intensity is 2.512 x 10^-4 W/m^2.

A steel ball and a piece of clay have equal mass. They are dropped from the same height on a horizontal steel platform. The ball

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer: The ball (option A)

Explanation: change in momentum is defined by the formulae m(v - u) where m = mass of object, v = final velocity and u = initial velocity.

For the ball, it hits the ground and bounces back with the same speed, that's final velocity equals initials (v = - u)

Change in momentum = m( -u- u) = m(-2u) = m(-2u) = -2mu

For the clay, it final velocity is zero since it sticks to the floor, hence (v =0)

m(v - u) = m(0 - u) = - mu.

-2mu (change in momentum from the ball) is greater than - mu ( change in momentum of clay)
