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

HELP ASAP! <br>why is rolling friction much smaller than sliding friction? Also give an example.​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Rolling friction is much smaller than sliding friction because Rolling friction is considerably less than sliding friction as there is no work done against the body that is rolling by the force of friction. For a body to start rolling a small amount of friction is required at the point where it rests on the other surface, else it would slide instead of roll.

Rolling Friction example: Anything with weels (cars,skateboards) or a ball rooling.

Sliding Friction example: Bicycle brakes,skinning your knee walking,writing.

Thomas Newcomen was the first to produce a working steam engine. Why is the work of James Watt more widely known than the work o
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The steam engine of James watt is more efficient than Newcomen ans more suitable for the industrial revolution.

Explanation:

James Watt is more widely know for working steam engine because Watt has created better engine which is suitable for the industrial revolution. The steam engine of James watt is more efficient than Newcomen. Watt developed the condensing arrangement by using piston which lessen the initial pressure leading to effectively worked than Newcomen's
