Almost in every Physics books, momentum is denoted by P with small arrow(→) pointing towards right, placed on top of P.
I am guessing you asked about linear momentum.

Two wheel gears are connected by a chain. The larger gear has a radius of 8 centimeters and the smaller gear has a radius of 3 c

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

B.The linear velocity of the gears is the same. The linear velocity is 432π centimeters per minute.

Explanation:

As we know that the small gear completes 24 revolutions in 20 seconds

so the angular speed of the smaller gear is given as

$\omega = 2\pi\frac{24}{20}$

$\omega = 2.4\pi rad/s$

Now we know that the tangential speed of the chain is given as

$v = r \omega$

so we have

$v = (3 cm)(2.4\pi)$

$v = 7.2 \pi cm/s$

$v = 432\pi cm/min$

Since both gears are connected by same chain so both have same linear speed and hence correct answer will be

B.The linear velocity of the gears is the same. The linear velocity is 432π centimeters per minute.

What force causes a falling object to gain kinetic energy?

hoa [83]

Answer:

Gravitational Potential Energy

Explanation:

As an object falls from rest, its gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Conservation of energy as a tool permits the calculation of the velocity just before it hits the surface.

In a lab experiment a light flexible string is wrapped around a solid cylinder with mass M = 9.50 kg and radius R. The cylinder

Lunna [17]

Answer: $3.79 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

Mass $M=9.5 kg$

$m=3 kg$

Net Force is equivalent to $\sum F=ma$

with tension T in the string

For mass $m$

$mg-T=ma$

$T=mg-ma--------1$

For cylinder

$T\cdot R=I\times \alpha$

I for solid cylinder is $\frac{2}{5}MR^2 , and \alpha =\frac{a}{R}$

thus $T=\frac{Ma}{2}----2$

Substitute the value of T we get

$\frac{Ma}{2}=mg-ma$

$a(\frac{M}{2}+m)=mg$

$a=\frac{mg}{\frac{M}{2}+m}$

$a=3.79 m/s^2$
