Answer: The heavy truck

Explanation: Momentum is defined as the amount of movement.

It can be written as P = m*v

Where P is the momentum, m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity.

So you can see that if the mass increases, also does the momentum, so if both trucks move at the same velocity, then the truck with the bigger mas will have a bigger momentum.

Then the correct answer is the heavy truck

lara [203]

Answer:

c > √(2ab)

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to find the condition for c in such a way that the results have been real

The given equation is

              ½ a t² - c t + b = 0

we can see that this is a quadratic equation whose solution is

             t = [c ±√(c² - 4 (½ a) b)]  / 2

for the results to be real, the square root must be real, so the radicand must be greater than zero

              c² -2a b > 0

              c > √(2ab)

Which statement BEST describes acceleration?
Mashutka [201]
C) Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object so acceleration is used to describe the rate of change. I hope this helps!!

You are on a new planet, and are trying to use a simple pendulum to find the gravity experienced on this new planet. You find th
levacccp [35]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Period based on the length of its rope and gravity, mathematically it can be expressed as

T= 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

g = Gravity

L = Length

T = Period

Re-arrange to find the gravity we have

g = \frac{4\pi^2 L}{T^2}

Our values are given as

L = 0.35m\\T = 2s\\

Replacing we have

g = \frac{4\pi^2 L}{T^2}

g = \frac{4\pi^2 0.35}{2^2}

g = 3.45 m/s^2

Therefore the correct answer is C.
