A bowling ball has a mass of 5 kg. What happens to its momentum when its speed increases from 1 m/s to 2 m/s?

1 answer:

8 0

The linear momentum is given by $mv$ . Here $m$ is mass $v$ is velocity of the body. Given mass and velocities as $m=5,v_i=1,v_f=2$

Initial momentum is $mv_i=5*1=5$ and final momentum is $mv_f=5*2=10$ .

The correct answer is (A)

How can we describe, model, and explain the material world, and are there limitations?

taurus [48]

Answer:· A model is a description of natural phenomenon that scientists can use to make predictions. A good model is both as accurate as possible and as simple as possible, which makes it not only powerful but also easy to understand. However, no matter how good they are, models will almost always have limitations.

Torque can be best described as which of the following? Give an example of both a force and a torque and explain why in a couple

kicyunya [14]

Answer: rotational force

Explanation:

Torque is the twisting force which cause rotation and the axis of rotation is the point at which the object rotates.

Torque is a rotational force as it leads to the rotation of an object about an axis. Force simply means a pull or push. When an unbalanced ball acts on a force, the ball, the ball will be moved towards the linear motion.

Then, the unbalanced force that is acting in the ball produces torque which causes the ball's rotational motion.

A. $4.64\cdot 10^{11}m$

The orbital speed of the clumps of matter around the black hole is equal to the ratio between the circumference of the orbit and the period of revolution:

$v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}$
