A 4kg mass traveling eastwards at 4m.s per second collides with a 3kg mass traveling westward as 8m.s per second..calculate the

total momentum of mass before they colide

The following instructions are my idea.

P=m*v

1. notice that the to masses move in opposite directions -> one has positive and one has negative speed

2. P1=4*(-4)=-16[kg*m/s]
P2=3*8=24[kg*m/s]
3. Add the momentums:

P1+P2=-16+24=8[kg*m/s]

The total momentum of mass equals 8 kg*m/s

Find the minor measurement of the vernier scale by taking 49, 1mm divisions of the main scale and dividing it into 50 vernier di
olga nikolaevna [1]
<h2>♨ANSWER♥</h2>

length of V-50 = 49mm

length of V-1 = 49/50mm

= 0.98mm

so,

minor measurement = (M-1) - (V-1)

= 1mm -0.98mm

= 0.02mm

☆ Therefore,

The minor measurement of the vernier scale is 0.02mm.

which statements about velocity are true? check all that apply. a. for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction
satela [25.4K]
a). for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction.
Yes.  This one isn't bad.  The 'number' and the 'unit' are the speed.

b). the si units for velocity are miles per hour.
No.  That's silly. 
'miles' is not an SI unit, and 'miles per hour'
is only a speed, not a velocity. 

c). the symbol for velocity is .
You can use any symbol you want for velocity, as long as
you make its meaning very clear, so that everybody knows
what symbol you're using for velocity.
But this choice-c is still wrong, because either it's incomplete,
or else it's using 'space' for velocity, which is a very poor symbol.

d). to calculate velocity, divide the displacement by time.
Yes, that's OK, but you have to remember that the displacement
has a direction, and so does the velocity.

A runner accelerated to 4 m/s^2 for 20 seconds before winning the race.How far did he/she run?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

s=800 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of a runner, a = 4 m/s²

Time, t = 20 seconds

We need to find the distance covered by her. Initially, she was at rest. It means its initial velocity is equal to 0. So, using second equation of motion as follows :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Herre, u = 0

s=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times (20)^2\\\\s=800\ m

So, she will cover a distance of 800 m.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

D. 1×10⁻⁸ M

Explanation:

[H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

(1×10⁻⁶) [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 1×10⁻⁸

What's is meant by relative motion?​
saveliy_v [14]

Relative motion means a motion relative to a reference point. We can also say, relative motion means motion referred or observed from a reference point.

For example, Alex is in a train and Ace is at the station, when the train starts moving, for Ace it is moving at a speed of 10 m/s, but for Alex it is moving at 0 m/s, or we can say that it is at rest for Alex, but in motion for Ace. This is relative motion.
