Answer:

A. How much matter an object has, plus the magnitude and direction of its motion

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of mass by velocity, in the international system of measurements (SI) momentum has the following Units [kg*m/s].

P = m*v

where:

P = momentum Lineal [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

Therefore the answer is A) How much matter an object has, plus the magnitude and direction of its motion

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Solar Flares and Prominences

Explanation:

The sun is source of light and heat energy and it supports life on earth because sun is the primary source of energy. But sun is also a star and is a glowing ball of hot gases mostly hydrogen and helium. There are so many activity that takes place on surface of sun. But the two activity solar flare and prominences affect the radio communication.

Solar Flare are electromagnetic energy built up in the sun atmosphere .These energy travel with the speed of light and affect outer atmosphere of earth. These increased level of X rays and ultraviolet rays ions the layer of ionosphere which becomes superionised. thus causing destructive interference.

The radio waves travel in ionosphere and frequently collide with electron lose energy and completely blackout.

Prominence is defined as gaseous cloud of calcium,hydrogen and other gases floating above sun chromosphere and emit violently particularly near sunspots sometimes travel through space and affect radio communication.

And I need help with seven and eight only I will appreciate it

Mumz [18]

Answer:

7] Force = mass × acceleration

Force = 2 × 5

Force = 10 N

8] Velocity = acceleration due to gravity × time taken

Velocity = 9.8 × 12

Velocity = 117.6 m/s

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

b. a massive collapsed star

Explanation:

A black hole in the universe is nothing but a massive collapsed star. When the size of the star crosses a particular limit it cannot holds its mass and it collapses under it own self. This is called supernova. A black hole is actually a region in space where gravity is so strong that even light cannot escape through it. Gravity so strong because the matter has been pressed into a tiny space. hence option b is correct

A diagram of a closed circuit with a power source on the left labeled 120 V. There are 3 resistors in parallel, separate paths,

Zina [86]

1) The equivalent resistance is $2.73\Omega$

2) The voltage in the circuit is 120 V

3) The total current in the circuit is 44.0 A

Explanation:

Resistors are said to be in parallel when they have the same potential difference at their terminals.

The formula to calculate the equivalent resistance for three resistors in parallel is:

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}$

where $R_1, R_2, R_3$ are the resistances of the three resistors.

In this problem, the resistance of each resistor is:

$R_1 = 5.0 \Omega$

$R_2 = 10.0 \Omega$

$R_3 = 15.0 \Omega$

Substituting,

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{15}=\frac{11}{30}$

So the equivalent resistance is

$R_T = \frac{30}{11}=2.73 \Omega$

In this problem we are told that the three resistors are connected in parallel. This means that their terminals are connected to the same point of the circuit: therefore, this means that they also have the same potential difference across them.

Therefore, the voltage in each branch containing each resistor is the same, and it is equal to the voltage of the battery, which is

$V=120 V$
