A car has a mass of 900 kg and a truck has a mass of 1800 kg. In which of the following situations would they have the same momentum?A car has a mass of 900 kg and a truck has a mass of 1800 kg. In which of the following situations would they have the same momentum?
Answer:
The car must be moving away from the person.
Explanation:
From Doppler's Effect, we know that when a sound source moves towards a stationary observer, the apparent frequency of that sound increases. While the apparent frequency decreases if the source moves away from the stationary observer.
The audible range of frequencies for a human ear is 20 Hz to 20000 Hz. Therefore, in order for the sound of a loud speaker to be audible for the person, the frequency must decrease below 20000 Hz.
<u>Due to this reason, the car must be moving away from the person.</u>
Answer:
If a crest formed by one wave interferes with a trough formed by the other wave then the rope will not move at all.
Explanation:
Assume a straight rope tied to both ends is at rest. When a wave is created at one end of the rope, it travels to the other end of the rope through formation of alternative crest and trough. Due to these crest and trough the rope shifts up and down.
But when there are two waves travelling through the rope and both have opposite direction (directed towards one another) in such a way that crest formed by one wave is interfering with the trough formed by the other wave then due to this interference the waves will cancel the effects of each other on the rope and rope will be stable.
Answer:
a) 3.43 m/s
Explanation:
Due to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum of the bullet - rifle system must be conserved.
The total momentum before the bullet is shot is zero, because they are both at rest, so:

Instead the total momentum of the system after the shot is:

where:
m = 0.006 kg is the mass of the bullet
M = 1.4 kg is the mass of the rifle
v = 800 m/s is the velocity of the bullet
V is the recoil velocity of the rifle
The total momentum is conserved, therefore we can write:

Which means:

Solving for V, we can find the recoil velocity of the rifle:

where the negative sign indicates that the velocity is opposite to direction of the bullet: so the recoil speed is
a) 3.43 m/s
Answer:
2
Explanation:
mars has a shorter year because when it revolves around the sun, it takes less time than, saturn who is millions of miles away from mars, longer. Also, mars is closer to the sun than saturn
