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)

Two parallel conducting plates are separated by 10.0 cm, and one of them is taken to be at zero volts. (a) what is the electric

Alex_Xolod [135]

The expression for the magnitude of the electric field between two uniform conducting plates is

$E=\frac{V}{d}$

Here, V is potential difference between plates and d is separation between plates.

As the potential 6.00 cm from the zero volt plate (and 4.00 cm from the other) is 420 V.

Therefore,

$E = \frac{420 \ V}{6 \times 10^{-2} m } = 70 \times 10^2 \ V/m$

Thus, the electric field strength between the plates is 7000 V/ m

Pumping of groundwater in California most effectively: Select one:

maria [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ans- A, causes sediments in aquifers that are emptied to compact and the ground above it to sink.

This is one of the major problems for California nowadays. Due to excessive groundwater pumping to satisfy the demand of huge population the aquifers are drying, hence compacting and for that the land above sinks.

8. When a 100 N bag of nails hangs motionless from a single vertical strand of rope, how many newtons of tension are exerted in

Svetllana [295]

If the bag is motionless, then it's not accelerating up or down.
That fact right there tells you that the net vertical force on it
is zero. So the sum of any upward forces on it is exactly equal
to the downward gravitational force ... the bag's "weight".

If the bag is suspended from a single rope, then the tension
in the rope must be equal to the 100-N weight of the bag.

And if there are four ropes holding it up, then the sum of
the four tensions is 100N. If the ropes have been carefully
adjusted to share the load equally, then the tension is 25N
in each rope.

A teacher discusses a scientific theory that has been in place for almost a century. which would present the greatest challenge

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: The theory might have become Obsolete or Superseded

Explanation:

A theory becomes obsolete or superseded if it becomes inadequate, false or incomplete in how its describes reality. It does not matter if it was once accepted. There are some theories such as Lysenkoism that are currently described as being obsolete because it does not conform to current reality. Another example of a theory that was superseded is the phlogiston theory. It was replaced a different theory of energy.
