Physics
1 answer:
xxTIMURxx [149]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C.  Mass is independent of the force acting on the mass.

Weight depends on the gravitational force acting on the mass.

Example:  A mass of 1 kg on the earth still has a mass of 1 kg on the moon;

whereas the weight of that mass on earth is 9.8 N and only 1/6 of that amount on the moon.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Because of the location, humidity and temperatures.

Explanation:

Coca is grown in humid and very humid subtropical forests, called yungas and

they form the lower floor of the upper Jungle, in the Central Andes, mostly in Peru and Bolivia. The  yungas are in contact with the rainforests of the lowlands in Amazonia, where it has been  started to expand coca cultivation recently (Dourojeanni, 1988). The optimum altitude is 1000 a  2000 meters (where cocaine content is higher), with optimal annual average precipitation, is 2000 meters  mm, but it is grown between 700 and 2000 msnm and with an average annual rainfall of 1000 to 4200 mm.

msnm = meters above sea level

A hockey puck is traveling to the left with a velocity of v=10 when it is struck by the hockey stick
Lera25 [3.4K]
We have to calculate the impulse of a hockey puck.
Imp = m * ( v 1 - v 2 ) = m * Δ v
v 1 = - 10 i m/s,
v 2 = ( 20 * cos 40° ) i + ( 20 * sin 40° ) j =
= ( 20 * 0.766 ) i + ( 20 * 0.64278 ) j = ( 15.32 i + 12.855 j ) m/s
Δ v = ( 15.32 i + 12.855 j ) - ( - 10 i ) =
= 15.32 i + 12.855 j + 10 i = 25.32 i + 12.855 j
| Δv | = √ ( 25.32² + 12.855²) = √806.35 = 28.4 m/s
Imp = 0.2 kg * 28.4 m/s = 5.68 N-s
Answer: D ) 5.68 N-s.
