Answer:

Being an elastic object, rubber ball will be an ideal choice as it will bounce off the bowling pit and will experience a large change in momentum in comparison with the beanbag which will either slow down or come to a halt upon hitting a bowling pit. That is why rubber ball will experience a greater impulse and the bowling pin will experience the negative impulse of the rubber ball.

For Rubber Ball

Upon elastic collision it will reverses the direction and move with velocity equal or less then original

change in momentum = P

P = m(v_{f} -v_{i})\\v_{f}=-v_{i} \\  P = -2mv_{i}

For Beanbag

value of impulse will large if velocity is zero.

v_{f}=0\\ P = -mv_{i}

Answer:

The distance between the tip of her nose from the center of the crystal ball is 14.3 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, q=5\times 10^{-9}\ C

The end of her nose experiences an electric field strengths of 2200 N/C

It is required to find the distance between the tip of her nose from the center of the crystal ball. The formula of the electric field is given by :

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

r is distance

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{kq}{E}} \\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 5\times 10^{-9}}{2200}} \\\\r=0.143\ m\\\\r=14.3\ cm

So, the distance between the tip of her nose from the center of the crystal ball is 14.3 cm.

Explain how heat transfer is occurring through convection, radiation AND conduction in this picture.
frosja888 [35]

A cup of tea/coffee transfers heat via conduction, convection and radiation.

Conduction:

  • Heat transfer from a coffee to the spoon is in direct contact
  • Inner part of the tea cup against hot liquid will transfer heat to the outer part and saucer.

Convection:

Movement of molecules within the coffee. Hot molecules of the tea at the middle of the drink will be eventually make their way to the outer part of the drink near the tea cup, where they will loose their heat.

Radiation:

Thermal radiation is the loss of heat from a solid object in to atmosphere via the release of electromagnetic radiation. So hot outer edge of the teacup loss the energy to its surroundings via thermal radiation.

Law of conservation<br> of momentum
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Explanation:

Law of conservation of momentum is applied in solving collision problem. When two body collides, their momentum after collision can be determined using the law.

The law States that the sum of momentum of two bodies before collision is equal to the sum of their momentum after collision. Before collision, both bodies moves with a different velocity while during some cases, the bodies moves with a common velocity after collision.

Whether they move with or without the same velocity depends on the type of collision that exists between them after the collision. After collision, some object sticks together and move with a common velocity while some doesn't.

If the bodies sticks together after collision, the type of collision that occur is inelastic (energy is not conserved) and if they splits after collision, the type of collision that occur is an elastic collision (energy is conserved).

Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the bodies

u1 and u2 be their velocities before collision

v1 and v2 be their velocities after collision.

According to the law;

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

Note that momentum = mass × velocity of the body.
