Do comets have a liquid center

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: Comets are basically floating chunks of ice, dust, and frozen gases. So, when comets are in space they cannot melt, So I'll say no :)

Answer - No, comets doesn't have a liquid center.

A trolley of mass 4 kg moves with a velocity of 0.5 meter per second It colides with a stationary trolley of mass 3 kg. If the t

Luda [366]

Answer:

Approximately $0.29\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .

Explanation:

Make use of the fact that total momentum is conserved in collisions.

The momentum of an object of mass $m$ and velocity $v$ is $p = m\, v$ .

The momentum of the two trolleys before the collision would be:

$4\; {\rm kg} \times 0.5\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}} = 2\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .
$3\; {\rm kg} \times 0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} = 0\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .

Thus, the total momentum of the two trolleys right before the collision would be $2\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .

Since the two trolleys are stuck to one another after the collision, they could modelled as one big trolley of mass $m = 3\; {\rm kg} + 4\; {\rm kg} = 7\; {\rm kg}$ .

The momentum of the two trolleys, combined, is conserved during the collision. Thus, the total momentum of the new trolley of mass $m = 7\; {\rm kg}$ would continue to be $v = 2\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}$ shortly after the collision.

Rearrange the equation $p = m\, v$ to find the velocity of the two trolleys combined:

$\begin{aligned}v &= \frac{p}{m} \\ &= \frac{2\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}}{7\; {\rm kg}} \\ &\approx 0.29\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

Pachacha [2.7K]

If two people hit identical tennis balls at the same time, the ball that has the most kinetic energy is the ball that moves at the fastest speed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The energy possessed by an object by virtue of its motion is called its kinetic energy indicating that only moving objects have kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of an object depends on its speed and mass.

It is given by the expression

$K=1/2 mv^2$

where m denotes the mass of the object and v denotes its velocity.

since kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the velocity, the kinetic energy of an object increases with its velocity.

Hence an object that moves at the fastest speed will have the most kinetic energy.

The acceleration of a baseball pitcher's hand as he delivers a pitch is extreme. For a professional player, this acceleration ph

SashulF [63]

Answer:

116 N.

Explanation:

Given,

mass of the ball, m = 0.145 Kg

initial speed = 0 m/s

Final speed = 40 m/s

time = 50 ms = 0.05 s

Force is equal to change in momentum per unit time

$F = \dfrac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

$F = \dfrac{0.145(40-0)}{0.05}$

F = 116 N

Force of the pitcher hand on the ball is equal to 116 N.
