A billiard ball moves with 3 kg⋅m/s of momentum and strikes three other billiard balls that have been just sitting there at rest and not moving.
The total momentum of all four balls after the collision is <em>3 kg⋅m/s</em>, because momentum is not created or destroyed. The total amount of it after an event is the same as the total amount of it before the event.
Answer:
The gravity arrow for each body rotates, always pointing toward the other body. Both arrows grow longer when the bodies come closer to one another and shorter when they move farther apart. This change shows that the gravitational force is stronger the closer together the bodies are.
Explanation:
Answer:
C. Alpha
Explanation:
Gamma radiation, unlike alpha or beta, does not consist of any particles, instead consisting of a photon of energy being emitted from an unstable nucleus. Having no mass or charge, gamma radiation can travel much farther through air than alpha or beta, losing (on average) half its energy for every 500 feet.
