A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 50 times as massive and falling at 8.1 m/s , a typical raindrop speed. how fast

is the raindrop, with the attached mosquito, falling immediately afterward if the collision is perfectly inelastic?

here we will use the momentum conservation

initial total momentum = final total momentum

P_i = P_f

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

now plug in all data here

m(0) + 50m(8.1) = mv + 50mv

405 = 51 v

v = 7.94 m/s

so the final speed will be 7.94 m/s

Suppose the initial position of an object is zero, the starting velocity is 3 m/s and the final velocity was 10 m/s. The object
Nookie1986 [14]

Explanation:

We have,

The initial position of an object is zero.

The starting velocity is 3 m/s and the final velocity was 10 m/s.

The object moves with constant acceleration..

The area covered under the velocity-time graph gives displacement of the object. The correct option is "the area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle under the line".

It is known that birds can detect the earth's magnetic field, but the mechanism of how they do this is not known. It has been su
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

A) 0.50 mV

Explanation:

In this problem, we can think the wings of the bird as a metal rod moving across a magnetic field. So, and emf will be induced into the wings of the bird, according to the formula:

\epsilon = BvL sin \theta

where

B=5\cdot 10^{-5} T is the strength of the magnetic field

v = 13 m/s is the speed of the bird

L = 1.2 m is the wingspan of the bird

\theta=40^{\circ} is the angle between the direction of motion and the direction of the magnetic field

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

\epsilon = (5.0\cdot 10^{-5} T)(13 m/s)(1.2 m) sin 40^{\circ}=0.00050 V = 0.50 mV

It says find the slope for each line I'm stuck on number one can you help me
Allushta [10]
\text{slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

(-2, -1)(3, 1)

Therefore,

\text{slope}=\frac{1-(-1)}{3-(-2)}=\frac{1+1}{3+2}=\frac{2}{5}

Find the magnitude of the electric field due to a charged ring of radius "a" and total charge "Q", at a point on the ring axis a
34kurt

Answer:

E=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge on ring= Q

Radius of ring=a

We have to find the magnitude of electric filed on the axis at distance a from the ring's center.

We know that the electric field at distance x from the center of ring of radius R is given by

E=\frac{kQx}{(R^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

Substitute x=a and R=a

Then, we get

E=\frac{KQa}{(a^2+a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

E=\frac{KQa}{(2a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

E=\frac{KQa}{2\sqrt 2a^3}

E=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}

Where K=9\times 10^9 Nm^2/C^2

Hence, the magnitude of the electric filed due to charged ring on the axis of ring at distance a from the ring's center=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}
