Calculate the momentum pelephant of a 2140 kg elephant charging a hunter at a speed of 7.63 m/s . pelephant= kg⋅m/s Compare the

elephant's momentum with the momentum pdart of a 0.0415 kg tranquilizer dart fired at a speed of 619 m/s . pelephant=pdart pelephant>pdart More information is needed to determine how the momentums compare. pelephant

Answer:

Momentum of elephant is greater than momentum of tranquilizer dart

Explanation:

m_e = Mass of elephant = 2140 kg

m_d = Mass of tranquilizer dart = 0.0415 kg

v_e = Velocity of elephant = 7.63 m/s

v_e = Velocity of tranquilizer dart = 619 m/s

Momentum of elephant

p_e=m_ev_e\\\Rightarrow p_e=2140\times 7.63\\\Rightarrow p_e=16328.2\ N.s

Momentum of tranquilizer dart

p_d=m_dv_d\\\Rightarrow p_d=0.0415\times 619\\\Rightarrow p_d=25.6885\ N.s

So, p_e>p_d

Momentum of elephant is greater than momentum of tranquilizer dart

What elements are good conductors of electricity?
kramer
In solids: All metals are good conductors of electricity as they contain free moving electrons. Non-metals doesn't conduct , but we consider Graphite the only non-metal that can conduct electricity for the presence of free moving electrons.

In Liquids ; Ionic compunds contains free moving ions , so they conduct electricity as well .

g The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance x is given by U(x)=−C6/x6, where C6 is a positi
Arisa [49]

Answer:

F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}

Attractive

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms given by \frac{C_6}{X_6}

Based on the given information, the force that one atom exerts on the other is

Potential energy μ = \frac{C_6}{X_6}

Force exerted by one atom upon another

F_x = \frac{\partial U}{\partial X} = \frac{\partial}{\partial X}  (-\frac{C_6}{X^6})

or

F_x = \frac{\partial}{\partial X}  (\frac{C_6}{X^6})

or

F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}

As we can see that the C_6 comes in positive and constant which represents that the force is negative that means the force is attractive in nature

It is known that heat is added to a gas in sealed container. The container is fitted with a moveable piston.
jasenka [17]

Answer:

d. Not enough information is given to answer this question.

Explanation:

From first law of thermodynamics

Q= W + ΔU

Q=Heat  ,W= Work , ΔU=Change in internal energy

If work done by the gas :

It means that W and Q both are positive

Q- W = ΔU

Ii Q > W ,then temperature of the gas will increase.

If  Q< W  ,Then temperature of the gas will decreases.

If work done on the gas:

Q positive but W will be negative

Q- W = ΔU

Q= W or Q>W  or Q< W ,then temperature of the gas will increase.

There are three cases because they did not give any information about the work.That is why option d is correct.
