The animal's weight is

                         (mass) x (gravity)

                 =      (0.05 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)  =  0.49 newton.

That's the minimum force you can use to pick it up.

That's the force applied by the person to pick up the pig
at a nice gentle constant speed.

Then the net force on the pig is zero.  The upward and downward
forces add up to zero, and that's why the animal is moving at a
constant speed, and not accelerating up or down.

A ball with a momentum of 16 kg.M/s strikes a ball at rest. What is the total momentum of both the balls after the collision.
melomori [17]

Answer:

Total momentum = 16 Kgm/s

Explanation:

Let the momentum of the two balls be A and B respectively.

Momentum A = 16 kgm/s

Momentum B = 0 kgm/s (since the ball is at rest).

Total momentum = A + B

Total momentum = 16 + 0

Total momentum = 16 Kgm/s

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = mass * velocity

-. A 2kg cart moving to the right at 5m/s collides with an 8kg cart at rest. As a
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

<em>The velocity of the carts after the event is 1 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum </u>

The total momentum of a system of bodies is conserved unless an external force is applied to it. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and speed v is  

P=mv.  

If we have a system of bodies, then the total momentum is the sum of the individual momentums:

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...+m_nv_n

If a collision occurs and the velocities change to v', the final momentum is:

P'=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2+...+m_nv'_n

Since the total momentum is conserved, then:

P = P'

In a system of two masses, the equation simplifies to:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2

If both masses stick together after the collision at a common speed v', then:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v'

The common velocity after this situation is:

\displaystyle v'=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

The m1=2 kg cart is moving to the right at v1=5 m/s. It collides with an m2= 8 kg cart at rest (v2=0). Knowing they stick together after the collision, the common speed is:

\displaystyle v'=\frac{2*5+8*0}{2+8}=\frac{10}{10}=1

The velocity of the carts after the event is 1 m/s

Why is the cycle of cellular respiration and photosynthesis important to life for plants
devlian [24]
The cycle of cellular respiration and photosynthesis are important for the life of plants because cellular respiration uses one of the products of photosynthesis (oxygen), and uses it as one of the reactants along with glucose to produce carbon dioxide. These two cycles help maintain a balance for our atmosphere, even though pollution and other factors have disrupted this balance. Hope this helps! :)
