Answer:  600 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass x velocity

momentum of spaceship 1 = 200 x 2

= 400 kg-m/s

momentum of spaceship 2 = 200 x 2

= 200 kg-m/s

Their combine momentum = 400 + 200 = 600 kg-m/s

Comets travel around the sun in elliptical orbits with large eccentricities. If a comet has speed 1.6×104 m/s when at a distance
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

v₂ = 7.6 x 10⁴ m/s

Explanation:

given,

speed of comet(v₁) = 1.6 x 10⁴ m/s

distance (d₁)= 2.7 x 10¹¹ m

to find the speed when he is at distance of(d₂) 4.8 × 10¹⁰ m

v₂ = ?

speed of planet can be determine using conservation of energy

K.E₁ + P.E₁ = K.E₂ + P.E₂

\dfrac{1}{2}mv_1^2-\dfrac{GMm}{r_1} = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_2^2-\dfrac{GMm}{r_2}

\dfrac{1}{2}v_1^2-\dfrac{GM}{r_1} = \dfrac{1}{2}v_2^2-\dfrac{GM}{r_2}

v_2^2= v_1^2 + \dfrac{2GM}{r_2}-\dfrac{2GM}{r_1}

v_2= \sqrt{v_1^2 +2GM(\dfrac{1}{r_2}-\dfrac{1}{r_1})}

v_2= \sqrt{(1.6\times 10^4)^2 +2\times 6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 1.99 \times 10^{30}(\dfrac{1}{4.8\times 10^{10}}-\dfrac{1}{2.7\times 10^{11}})}

v₂ = 7.6 x 10⁴ m/s

Match the measurements to the correct number of significant figures.
Shalnov [3]
To calculate the number of sig figs
1.  Count ALL nonzero numbers
2.  If the zero is between 2 numbers, count it
3.  If in a decimal the zero is at the end, count it
4.  In a decimal all the zeros before the first nonzero number are placeholders and don't count them
5.  In a number greater than zero all zeros AFTER the last nonzero number are placeholders and don't count them.

A - 5
B - 2
C - 3
D - 1
E - 4

The weight of an apple at 4r from earth is of that on earth
iris [78.8K]
W = m.g = weight
g = Gme/Re**2 where G= universal gravitational constant , Re= radius of the earth
me= mass of the earth
therefore it weighs 16 times less

D section a only still need help on this
SIZIF [17.4K]

Acceleration means speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. The graph doesn't show anything about direction, so we just have to examine it for speeding up or slowing down ... any change of speed.

The y-axis of this graph IS speed. So the height of a point on the line is speed. If the line is going up or down, then speed is changing.

Sections a, c, and d are all going up or down. Section b is the only one where speed is not changing. So we can't be sure about b, because we don't know if the track may be curving ... the graph can't tell us that. But a, c, and d are DEFINITELY showing acceleration.
