The momentum of two or more objects during collisions is not lost nor gained
In general,
Power = (energy moved) / (time to move the energy) .
If it's mechanical power, then
Power = (work done) / (time to do the work) .
If it's electrical power, then it can be any one of these:
Power = (volts) x (amperes)
Power = (volts)² / (resistance, ohms)
Power = (amperes)² x (resistance, ohms) .
Whatever kind of energy you're dealing with, power always
turns out to be
(amount of energy produced, used, or moved)
divided by
(time taken to produce, use, or move the energy) .
Answer:
A book on its side exerts a greater force.
Explanation:
Pressure = Force / Area
Assuming that 1kg = 10N
2kg = 20N
Area of book lying flat = 0.3m × 0.2m
= 0.6m²
Pressure of book lying flat = 20N / 0.6m²
= 30Pa (1 s.f.)
Area of book on its side = 0.2m × 0.05m
= 0.01m²
Pressure of book on its side = 20N / 0.01m²
= 2000Pa (1 s.f.)
Since 2000Pa (1 s.f.) > 30Pa (1 s.f.), a book on its side applies greater pressure than lying flat.
The answer is Decibels. <span />
Dispersion occurs due to the different degrees of refraction experienced by different colours of light. Light of different colours may travel with the same speed in a vacuum, but they travel at different speeds in some refracting medium. The speed of violet light is relatively lower than that of red light.
