Answer:

0.167m/s

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum which States that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of the bodies after collision. The bodies move with a common velocity after collision.

Given momentum = Maas × velocity.

Momentum of glider A = 1kg×1m/s

Momentum of glider = 1kgm/s

Momentum of glider B = 5kg × 0m/s

The initial velocity of glider B is zero since it is at rest.

Momentum of glider B = 0kgm/s

Momentum of the bodies after collision = (mA+mB)v where;

mA and mB are the masses of the gliders

v is their common velocity after collision.

Momentum = (1+5)v

Momentum after collision = 6v

According to the law of conservation of momentum;

1kgm/s + 0kgm/s = 6v

1 =6v

V =1/6m/s

Their speed after collision will be 0.167m/s

Answer:

Option B. 3.0×10¯¹¹ F.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Potential difference (V) = 100 V.

Charge (Q) = 3.0×10¯⁹ C.

Capacitance (C) =..?

The capacitance, C of a capacitor is simply defined as the ratio of charge, Q on either plates to the potential difference, V between them. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Capacitance (C) = Charge (Q) / Potential difference (V)

C = Q/V

With the above formula, we can obtain the capacitance of the parallel plate capacitor as follow:

Potential difference (V) = 100 V.

Charge (Q) = 3.0×10¯⁹ C.

Capacitance (C) =..?

C = Q/V

C = 3.0×10¯⁹ / 100

C = 3.0×10¯¹¹ F.

Therefore, the capacitance of the parallel plate capacitor is 3.0×10¯¹¹ F.

One baked potato provides an average of 30 mg of vitamin C. If 70 potatoes weigh 20 lb., how many milligrams of vitamin C are pr
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

105 mg

Explanation:

Given that:

1 baked potato provides 30 mg of vitamin C.

So,

70 baked potatoes provide 30\times 70 mg of vitamin C

Also,

70 potatoes = 20 lb

So,

20 lb potatoes provide 30\times 70 mg of vitamin C

Thus,

1 lb potatoes provide \frac {30\times 70}{20} mg of vitamin C

<u>Thus, 105 mg of Vitamin C are provided per pound of the potatoes.</u>
