Answer: 50 gram superball that strikes the wall at 1 m/s and bounces away at 0.8 m/s has greater change in kinetic energy.

Explanation:

50 gram superball that strikes the wall at 1 m/s and bounces away at 0.8 m/s has the greater change in kinetic energy because the collision is elastic in nature that is bodies separates after collision and doesn't lose any kinetic energy.

Also for an elastic collision, both the momentum and energy of the bodies are conserved compare to inelastic collision where only momentum is conserved but not the kinetic energy(this is attributed to bodies that sticks together after collision).

The filament of a 240 V, 100 W electric lamp heats up from room temperature to its operating temperature. As it heats up, its re
Xelga [282]
We need to use the formula P = IV, where P is the power, I is the current and V is the voltage. 
When we substitute our values in, we get:
100 = 240I, and so I = 0.42 Amps
Now, we have to work out the Resistance in the circuit at the operating temperature.

We do this using the formula V = IR
240 = (100/240) x R, and we get R = 576 Ohms

Since the resistance has gone up by a factor of 16, all we have to do now is to divide this answer by 16 to get the resistance at room temperature.

576/16 = 36 Ohms

Hope I helped!! xx

If two identical cars are traveling at different velocities, which car has the greatest momentum ​
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The one with highest velocity

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the car

v is the velocity of the car

In this problem, we have two identical cars: identical means they have same mass, so

m_1 = m_2 = m

The momentum of car 1 is

p_1 = mv_1

while the momentum of car 2 is

p_2 = mv_2

By comparing the two expressions, we see that the car with greatest momentum is the one with highest velocity, since the mass is the same.

A Chinook salmon can swim underwater at 3.75 m/s, and it can also jump vertically upward, leaving the water with a speed of 6.20
Olin [163]

Answer:

P = 2161 N

Explanation:

For this exercise, let's start with Newton's second law

                P - W = m a

                P = ma + W

Where P is the fin force, W the weight,

Let's look for the vertical acceleration of the fish, this goes from a vertical speed of zero to a speed of 6.20 m / s when it has traveled half its length 1.50

                  y = 0.75 m

                  v² = v₀ + 2 a y

                  a = v² / 2 y

                  a = 6.20²/2 0.75

                  a = 25.63 m / s

We substitute in Newton's second law

                  P = m (g + a)

                 

Let's calculate

                 P = 61.0 (0 9.8 + 25.63)

                P = 2161 N
