The answer for this change in the magnitude of momentum is the same for both because momentum is always conserved so both vehicles have the identical change. 
So for determining who has the greater change in kinetic energy, momentum (P) = mv so P^2 = m^2 v^2 P^2 / 2m = 1/2 m v^2 = energy So the weightier the mass the smaller the energy change for the same momentum change so in here, the car has a greater change in kinetic energy.

Answer:

c) Their momentum changes are the same size.

Explanation:

In order to understand this you need to remember that the momentum is divided equally in the collision, so the correct answer to this is the fact that their momentum will changes the same, because that is how energy is preserved, the thing that could be different is that they are affected different by that momentum, it would probably affect differently the small car and the tractor, it would probably have a lot of impact for the small car.

The amount of energy that must be absorbed or lost to raise or lower the temperature of 1 g of liquid water by 1°c _____.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

4.2 J

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity: This is defined as the amount of a heat required to rise a unit mass of a substance through a temperature of 1 K

From specific heat capacity,

Q = cmΔt.............................. Equation 1

Where Q = amount of energy absorbed or lost, c = specific heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, Δt = Temperature rise.

Given: m = 1 g = 0.001 kg, Δt = 1 °C

Constant : c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute into equation 1

Q = 0.001×4200(1)

Q = 4.2 J.

Hence the energy absorbed or lost = 4.2 J

A child is sliding on a sled at 1.3 m/s to the right. You stop the sled by pushing on it for 0.80 s in a direction opposite to i
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

find acceleration first

a = vf - vi / t

a = 0  - 1.5 / 0.5s   (vf is zero)

a = -3 (negative sign indicates that acceleration is decreasing)

so F=ma

    F = 35 x -3

   F = -105 N (here negative sign indicates that u have to apply a force opposite to the boy's direction i.e from the left or towards the right)

6. Name two ways in which Faraday's work affects your own life in the twenty-first century.<br><br>​
Gekata [30.6K]

He discovered electromagnetic induction

He found a way to cause an electric current, and that discovery was later applied to many devices we use today.

His inventions transformed the home, farm, and factory

. Electricity eliminated manual labor like pumping water, so that rural families no longer spent hours of their day hauling water to livestock or to the house. Automated systems for tasks like milking cows kept farmers from crippling their hands, and the threat of barn fires from knocked over oil lamps during early-morning milking decreased.

Amazon has hired you to help design a new fleet of robots to work in their warehouse. You are trying to decide how powerful the
solmaris [256]

The minimum power is 490 W

Explanation:

The work that needs to be done by the robot in order to climb the shelves is equal to the gain in gravitational potential energy of the robot + object, therefore:

W=mg \Delta h

where

m = 15 kg + 5 kg = 20 kg is the total mass of the system

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\Delta h = 20 m is the change in height

Substituting,

W=(20)(9.8)(20)=3,920 J

Now we can calcualte the power (wattage) that the robot must have, using the equation

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W = 3,920 J is the work done

t = 8 s is the time interval

Substituting,

P=\frac{3920}{8}=490 W
