Answer:

A) When the baseball is rising

Explanation:

When an object like the baseball is thrown into the air, the kinetic energy  is gradually converted into potential energy. When the baseball rises to its maximum height, the kinetic energy becomes zero and the kinetic energy is fully converted into potential energy.

Explain the difference between what Isaac Newton and Louis de Broglie would have to say about the momentum of a particle that is
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Newton would resort to the classical mechanics and say that the momentum of the particle that is moving with a constant velocity will be given by: momentum = mass x velocity

this approach will highlight the particle nature and will not be relativistic.

De-Broglie will say that the momentum of the particle is related to its associated matter wave and the relation between them is given by:

p = \frac{h}{\lambda}

where \lambda = wavelength of the matter wave associated to the particle, h = planck's constant

andp = \gamma\times mv

thus, this highlights the wave nature of the particle and is also relativistic.

A spacecraft in outer space increases velocity by firing its rockets. How can hot gases escaping from its rockets change the vel
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Momentum is conserved.

Explanation:

-Momentum is conserved.

-By Newton's third law (For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.)-the change in momentum of gases in one direction must be balanced by an equal change in momentum of the spacecraft in the opposite direction.

Are acceleration and mass proportional or inversely proportional values?
finlep [7]

Answer:

acceleration and mass are inversely proportional values

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
