Answer: (E) Momentum and mechanical energy

Explanation:

 The momentum and the mechanical energy is basically conserved during the given interaction process as the forces on the given system are in the form of internal nature and then the momentum are get conserved.

According to the given question, on the smooth floor when an object are slides by using the spring then the momentum and the mechanical energy are conserved.

The mechanical energy is the combination of both the kinetic and the potential energy that is used for doing some amount of work. Therefore, Option (E) is correct answer.

What happens to light when it passes through a lens?
Novay_Z [31]
B. Light refracts as it passes through a lens.

The bending of a ray of light also occurs when light passes into and out of a glass lens. ... Because a convex lens can cause rays of light to converge, it can produce an image on a screen.

What is the magnetic field strength required to make a proton with a speed of 5.0 x 10^(5) m/s follow a circular path of radius
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Magnetic field strength required for this is 0.25 T

Explanation:

As we know that the proton moves in circular path in uniform magnetic field

so the radius of the path of the circle is given as

R = \frac{mv}{qB}

here we know that

q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C

m = 1.6 \times 10^{-27} kg

R = 0.0200 m

v = 5 \times 10^5 m/s

now we have

B = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-27} (5 \times 10^5)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.02)}

so we have

B = 0.25 T

Is a negatively ionized lithium paste a conductor or insulator
Elenna [48]

Answer:

A negatively ionized lithium paste is a conductor.

Explanation:

A conductor is a material that conducts electricity. In other words, a conductor has little resistance to the movement of electric charge or electrons when an electric field is applied.

Insulating materials for electricity are those that offer a certain resistance to the movement of electrons or electric current. In other words, an electrical insulator is a material with a low capacity for conducting electricity.

The best conductors of electric current are metals due to the free electron clouds that favor the circulation of electric current through them.

So, <u><em>a negatively ionized lithium paste is a conductor. </em></u>

The momentum of a 0.1 kg object traveling at 2000 m/s is 20,000 kg·m/s. True or False
Alina [70]

That's false.  

The definition of momentum is (mass) x (speed), so they must be multiplied.

"20,000 kg-m/s" has the correct units resulting from multiplication, but the number could only be the result of division.

What feelings do learned helplessness and depression have in common?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Learned helplessness can have a profound impact on mental health and well-being. People who experience learned helplessness are also likely to experience symptoms of depression, elevated stress levels, and less motivation to take care of their physical health. Not everyone responds to experiences the same way.

Explanation:

Brainlist will be very accepted ;D *wink*
