Answer:

4. All the momentum starts in one ball, and after the collision, it is all in the other ball.

Explanation:

All the momentum starts in the first ball (the one is moving) . When this ball collides with the second ball, the first ball stops but its momentum it is transferred to the second ball, then to the third then fourth until it reaches the very last ball. Only the last ball has momentum now because is the only one moving.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

2.5 ms⁻²

Explanation:

By Newton's 2nd law,

The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the unbalance force applied on the object,

By that you can get the equation,

F = ma ⇒ a = F/m

where terms are in usual meaning

a = 3750/1500 = 2.5 ms⁻²

Question 5 (1 point)
Tom [10]

Answer: 18000 coulombs

Explanation:

Given that:

Current, I = 5.0A

Electric charge Q = ?

Time, T = 1 hour

(The SI unit of time is seconds. So, covert 1.0 hour to seconds)

If 1 hour = 60 minutes and 60 seconds = 1 minute

Then, 1.0 hour = (60 x 60)

= 3600 seconds

Since electric charge, Q = current x time

i.e Q = I x T

Q = 5.0 A x 3600 seconds

Q = 18000 coulombs

Thus, 18000 coulombs of charge flows through the lamp in this time.
