Momemtum is defined as

P = m*v

m is the mass
v is the velocity 

14 knots = 14*(1.852) km/h = 25.928 km/h = 7.202 m/s


P = 
4.2 x 10^7 kg * 14 knot = 4.2 x 10^7 kg * 25.928 <span> km/h
</span>
P =  
4.2 x 10^7 kg *7.202 m/s = 302.493 kg*m/s

Answer:

3.02\cdot 10^8 kg m/s

Explanation:

- The mass of the Titanic is given by:

m=4.2\cdot 10^7 kg

- The velocity of the Titanic is given by:

v=14 kn \cdot (1.852)=25.93 km/h \cdot ( \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h})=7.2 m/s

- The momentum of the Titanic is given by the product between mass and velocity:

p=mv=(4.2\cdot 10^7 kg)(7.2 m/s)=3.02\cdot 10^8 kg m/s

if the current in a wire is 2.0 amperes and the potential difference across the wire is 10 volts what is the resistance of the w
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

R = 2Ω

Explanation:

Potential difference (V) = current (I) * Resistance (R)

V = IR

I = 2.0A

V = 10v

R = ?

V = IR

R = V / I

R = 10 / 2

R = 2Ω

The resistance across the wire is 2Ω

A thin flake of mica (n=1.58) is used to cover one slit of a double-slit interference arrangement. The central point on the wiew
Llana [10]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the optical concepts related to the phase difference between two or more materials.

By definition we know that the phase between two light waves that are traveling on different materials (in this case also two) is given by the equation

\Phi = 2\pi(\frac{L}{\lambda}(n_1-n_2))

Where

L = Thickness

n = Index of refraction of each material

\lambda = Wavelength

Our values are given as

\Phi = 7(2\pi)

L=t

n_1 = 1.58

n_2 = 1

\lambda = 550nm

Replacing our values at the previous equation we have

\Phi = 2\pi(\frac{L}{\lambda}(n_1-n_2))

7(2\pi) = 2\pi(\frac{t}{\lambda}(1.58-1))

t = \frac{7*550}{1.58-1}

t = 6637.931nm \approx 6.64\mu m

Therefore the thickness of the mica is 6.64μm
