A 1 kg ball moving horizontally to the right at 3 m/s strikes a wall and rebound, moving horizontally to the left at the same ve

locity of 3 m/s. What is the magnitude of the change in linear momentum of the ball?
Physics

Answer:

The magnitude of the change in linear momentum of the ball is 6 kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 1 kg

Initial sped of the ball, u = 3 m/s

It strikes a wall and rebound, moving horizontally to the left at the same velocity of 3 m/s, v = -3 m/s

The magnitude of the change in linear momentum of the ball is given by :

p=m(v-u)\\\\p=1\ kg\times (-3-3)\\\\p=-6\ kg-m/s

So, the magnitude of the change in linear momentum of the ball is 6 kg-m/s.

Answer:

When conducting research, scientists use the scientific method to collect measurable, empirical evidence in an experiment related to a hypothesis (often in the form of an if/then statement), the results aiming to support or contradict a theory.

An 80- quarterback jumps straight up in the air right before throwing a 0.43- football horizontally at 15 . How fast will he be
lord [1]

Answer:

a)

the quarterback will be moving back at speed of 0.080625 m/s

b)

the distance moved horizontally by the quarterback is 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a)

How fast will he be moving backward just after releasing the ball?

using conservation of momentum;

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

v₂ = m₁v₁ / m₂

where m₁ is initial mass ( 0.43 kg )

m₂ is the final mass ( 80 kg )

v₁ is the initial velocity  ( 15 m/s )

v₂ is the final velocity

so we substitute

v₂ = ( 0.43 × 15 ) / 80

v₂ = 6.45 / 80

v₂ = 0.080625 m/s

Therefore, the quarterback will be moving back at speed of 0.080625 m/s

b) Suppose that the quarterback takes 0.30 to return to the ground after throwing the ball. How far d will he move horizontally, assuming his speed is constant?

we make use of the relation between time, distance and speed;

s = d/t

d = st

where s is the speed ( 0.080625 m/s )

t is time ( 0.30 s )

so we substitute

d = 0.080625 × 0.30

d = 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

Therefore, the distance moved horizontally by the quarterback is 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

A +0.2 µC charge is in an electric field. What happens if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge?
AleksandrR [38]

Explanation:

It is known that electric field is responsible for creating electric potential. As a result, it depends only on the electric field and not on the magnitude of charge.

So, when a charge is increased by a factor of 2 then electric potential will remain the same. Since, expression to calculate the electric potential is as follows.

                 U = qV

Since, the electric potential is directly proportional to the charge. Hence, when 0.2 \mu C tends to replaced by 0.4 \mu C then charge is increased by a factor of 2. Hence, the electric potential energy is doubled.

Thus, we can conclude that if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge then electric potential stays the same, but the electric potential energy doubles.

Do Small objects exert no gravitational force ? True or false
Zanzabum

Answer:

False -    

F = G M1 M2 / R^2

So F depends on M1 and M2 and as long either is not zero there will be a gravitational force between them.

In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, an electron moves in a circular path around a proton. The speed of the electron is appro
blondinia [14]
In order to answer these questions, we need to know the charges on
the electron and proton, and then we need to know the electron's mass. 
I'm beginning to get the creepy feeling that, in return for the generous
5 points, you also want me to go and look these up so I can use them
in calculations ... go and collect my own straw to make the bricks with,
as it were. 

Ok, Rameses:

Elementary charge . . . . .  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹  coulomb
                                        negative on the electron
                                        plussitive on the proton

Electron rest-mass . . . . .  9.11 x 10⁻³¹  kg


a).  The force between two charges is

      F  =  (9 x 10⁹) Q₁ Q₂ / R²

          =  (9 x 10⁹ m/farad) (-1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹m)²

          =     ( -2.304 x 10⁻²⁸) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)²

          =          8.05 x 10⁻⁸  Newton .


b).  Centripetal acceleration  = 

                                               v² / r  .

                  A  =  (2.03 x 10⁶)² / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)

                     =      7.7 x 10²²  m/s² .

That's an enormous acceleration ... about  7.85 x 10²¹  G's !
More than enough to cause the poor electron to lose its lunch.

It would be so easy to check this work of mine ...
First I calculated the force, then I calculated the centripetal acceleration.
I didn't use either answer to find the other one, and I didn't use  "  F = MA "
either.

I could just take the ' F ' that I found, and the 'A' that I found, and the
electron mass that I looked up, and mash the numbers together to see
whether  F = M A .

I'm going to leave that step for you.   Good luck !
