Could an elephant have the same momentum as a golf ball

Physics

Answer:

Since momentum equals mass times velocity, a very slow-moving elephant could have the same momentum as a very fast-moving golf ball. ... m/s because momentum is conserved.

Answer:

No.

To understand the problem, we first have to analyze how momentum can be affected. Basically, momentum depends on how much stuff is moving and how fast that stuff is moving, as well. Considering the first factor, we can clearly see that an elephant's mass is significantly larger than the mass of a golf ball, despite the fact that they can possibly be moving in the same speed. Suppose that their momentums are somehow equal, this also means that the goft ball must be moving in an incredibly fast speed since p = m × v ( which is nearly impossible).

Answer:

a)   S = 2.35 10³   J/m²2 ,  

b)and the tape recorder must be in the positive Z-axis direction.

the answer is 5

c) the direction of the positive x axis

Explanation:

a) The Poynting vector or intensity of an electromagnetic wave is

          S = 1 /μ₀ E x B

if we use that the fields are in phase

          B = E / c

we substitute

         S = E² /μ₀ c

let's calculate

        s = 941 2 / (4π 10⁻⁷  3 10⁸)

        S = 2.35 10³   J/m²2

 

b) the two fields are perpendicular to each other and in the direction of propagation of the radiation

In this case, the electro field is in the y direction and the wave propagates in the ax direction, so the magnetic cap must be in the y-axis direction, and the tape recorder must be in the positive Z-axis direction.

the answer is 5

C) The poynting electrode has the direction of the electric field, by which or which should be in the direction of the positive x axis

SI
madam [21]

Answer:

p = mv

Explanation:

  • The momentum of a body is defined as the product of its mass and velocity. Its physical symbol is 'p'.
  • The formula for momentum is given by

                               p = mv

         Where,

                                m -  the mass of the body in kg

                                v - velocity of the body in m/s

  • Therefore, the unit of momentum is expressed as the kg m/s
  • The momentum of a body is always associated with its motion. It is a vector quantity and it is directed in the direction of the velocity vector.
  • If a body is at rest, the momentum associated with the body is zero.
  • The momentum plays a significant role in the kinematics of the body. As similar to the energy conservation law, the total momentum of the body is conserved.

What is the difference between mutual flux, leakage flux and magnetizing flux<br> ​
Lemur [1.5K]

In simple words, flux can be stated as the rate of flow of a fluid, radiant energy, or particles across a given area.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>Mutual Flux:</u>

  • The magnetic lines present in among two magnets or solenoid is mutual flux.
  • These are the lines in which the attraction and repulsion happens.
  • The SI unit of mutual flux is the Henry

<u>Leakage Flux:</u>

  • In simple words, it can be stated as  the magnetic flux which does not follow the specially designed way in a magnetic circuit.
  • Leakage flux in the induction motor takes spot due to current runs through the essence of the induction motor.
  • The SI unit of Leakage flux is the Weber

<u>Magnetizing flux</u>

  • Magnetic flux is an analysis of the entire magnetic field which moves in a given field
  • In simple words can be defined as the Magnetic flux is what generates the field around a magnetic material.
  • The SI unit of magnetic flux is the Weber
