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)

What is the acceleration of a 10kg mass pushed by a 5N force?

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

From the question we have

$a = \frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{2} \\ = 0.5$

We have the final answer as

An object of 4 cm length is placed at a distance of 18 cm in front of a convex mirror of radius of curvature 30 cm. Find the pos

erica [24]

Answer:

The position is 8.18cm from the mirror.

Nature is b=virtual

Size is 1.82cm

Explanation:

Note that for a convex mirror, the image distance and the focal length are negative;

Given

Object height H0 = 4cm

object distance u = 18cm

Radius of curvature R = 30cm

Since f = R/2

f = 30/2

f = -15cm

Recall that:

$\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{v}\\\frac{1}{-15}=\frac{1}{18}+\frac{1}{v} \\\frac{1}{v} =\frac{1}{-15} -\frac{1}{18}\\ \frac{1}{v} = \frac{-18-15}{270}\\\frac{1}{v} = \frac{-33}{270}\\v=\frac{-270}{33}\\v=-8.18cm$

Since the image distance is negative, this shows that the image is a virtual image.

To get the size:

$\frac{H_1}{H_0}=\frac{v}{u}\\\frac{H_1}{4}=\frac{8.18}{18}\\18H_i=32.72\\H_i=\frac{32.72}{18}\\H_i= 1.82cm$

a baseball is pitched with a speed of 35.0m/s. how long does it take the ball to travel 18.4 m from the pitchers mound to home p

Vlad [161]

Given the speed and the distance, to find time you can use the formula speed is equal to distance over time. From there you can manipulate the equation for time to equal the distance divided by speed. Time is equal to 18.4 meters divided by 35m/s which equals 0.526 seconds.

Can you help me??????????????????????????)?

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Velocity is a change in displacement over change in time and uses the units m/s.

Both are rates of change and can be positive or negative.

Acceleration is a change in velocity over change in time and uses the units m/s².

Explanation:

Velocity is the change in displacement over change in time, this makes it a rate of change. It can be positive or negative because it is a vector quantity. It uses the units m/s because that is a displacement unit over a time unit.

Acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time, this makes it a rate of change. It can be positive or negative because it is also a vector quantity. It uses the units m/s² (m/s/s) because that is a velocity unit over a time unit.
