Friction accord while the ball was rolling in the grass and slowed it down until it finally came to a stop

This is because of friction. If you want to add extra detail you can say that this ties in with Newton's First Law of Motion, which states that an object moving at a constant speed will stay moving at a constant speed unless there is an opposite force, and in this case, the opposite force against the ball is friction.

A bowling ball has a mass of 6 kg. What happens to its momentum when its speed increases from 2m/s to 4 m/s?

Vitek1552 [10]

Here, Initial momentum = mu = 6*2 = 12 Kg m/s
Final momentum = mv = 6*4 = 24 Kg m/s

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

Hope this helps!

A skater with a mass of 72 kg is traveling east at 5.8 m/s when he collides with another skater of mass 45 kg heading 60° south

Akimi4 [234]

The final velocity is 5.87 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

mass, $m_{1}$ = 72 kg

speed, $v_{1}$ = 5.8 m/s

$Mass_{2}$ , $m_{2}$ = 45 kg

$speed_{2}$ , $v_{2}$ = 12 m/s

Θ = 60°

Final velocity, v = ?

Applying the conservation of momentum:

$m_{1}$ X $v_{1}$ + $m_{2}$ X $v_{2}$ = ( $m_{1}$ + $m_{2}$ ) v

72 X 5.8 + 45 X 12 X cos 60° = (72 + 45) v

v = 417.6 + 540 X $\frac{0.5}{117}$

v = 417.6 + $\frac{270}{117}$

v = 5.87 m/s

The final velocity is 5.87 m/s

The velocity of a 1.3 kg remote-controlled car is plotted on the graph. The work of segment A is J.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: 585 J

Explanation:

We can calculate the work done during segment A by using the work-energy theorem, which states that the work done is equal to the gain in kinetic energy of the object:

$W=K_f -K_i$

where Kf is the final kinetic energy and Ki the initial kinetic energy. The initial kinetic energy is zero (because the initial velocity is 0), while the final kinetic energy is

$K_f =\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

The mass is m=1.3 kg, while the final velocity is v=30 m/s, so the work done is:

$W=K_f = \frac{1}{2}(1.3 kg)(30 m/s)^2=585 J$

Chinook salmon are able to move upstream faster by jumping out of the water periodically; this behavior is called porpoising. Su

deff fn [24]

Answer:he formula for average speed is (total distance/total time)

the y-component does not matter in this problem. so do 6.26(cos45)=4.43m/s to find the x-component velocity which is constant throughout the duration of the flight. the total distance is 2L because he travels distance L twice.

the total time is ((time in water)+(time out of water)) since you dont have time you must eliminate it. to do this you need (distance)/(time)=velocity

solve for time and you get T=D/V

time in water is L/3.52 and time out of water is L/4.43

add them together and you get (4.43L+3.52L)/(15.59) = 7.95L/15.59

that value is your total time

divide you total distance (2L) by total time (7.95L/15.59) and the Ls cancel out and you get

(31.18)/(7.95) = 3.92 m/s = Average Speed
