Answer:

0.49 m/s

Explanation:

The law of conservation of linear momentum states that the sum of momentum in a system before and after collision are same. Momentum is a product of mass and velocity of an object hence in this case

$m_cu_c+m_8u_8=m_cv_u+m_8v_8$

Where m represent mass, u and v represent the initial and final velocities respectively, subscripts c and 8 represent cue ball and number 8 ball respectively.

Since number 8 ball is initially at rest, its initial velocity is zero. Replacing mass of cue ball with 170 g while mass of number 8 ball with 160g, then taking final velocity of cue ball as 0.2 m/s and final velocity of 8 ball as 0.3 m/s then we get

$170u_c+160*0=170*0.2+170*0.3\\u_c\approx 0.49 m/s$

States that Earth processes today are similar to those that took place in the past

Maslowich

Answer;

Uniformitarianism

Explanation;

-Uniformitarianism is the principle suggesting that Earth's geologic processes acted in the same manner and with essentially the same intensity in the past as they do in the present and that such uniformity is sufficient to account for all geologic change. For example, at an active volcano we can observe lava cooling to form layers of basalt.

James Hutton suggested that deep soil profiles were formed by the weathering of bedrock over thousands of years. He also suggested that supernatural theories were not needed to explain the geologic history of the Earth.

A person kicks a 4.0-kilogram door with a 48-newton force causing the door to accelerate at 12 meters per second squared. What i

inna [77]

Answer:

-48 N

Explanation:

mass of door (m) = 4 kg

acceleration of the door = 12 m/s^{2}

force exerted by the person = 48 N

From Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal but opposite. Therefore the force exerted on the door by the person which is 48 N will be the same as the force exerted on the person by the door but opposite in its direction, and this would be - 48 N

What does basketballs have inside of it

FrozenT [24]

Hi there!

Great question!

Basketballs have air inside them. A special pump is used to insert the air. That's why you can lift the basketballs off the ground easily. If it was a solid, though, you'd hardly be able to lift the ball up! Basketballs can float, too, because anything with air inside can float. If it were solid, it would sink in the water easily.

Hope this helps! :D
