The change in momentum of the car is 6000 kg m/s

Explanation:

According to the impulse theorem, the change in momentum of an object is equal to the impulse exerted on the object, therefore:

\Delta p = I

where

\Delta p is the change in momentum

I is the impulse exerted

For the car in this problem, the impulse received is

I = 6000 kg m/s (in the forward direction)

Therefore, the change in momentum of the car is equal to this value:

\Delta p = I = 6000 kg m/s (in the forward direction)

We can also calculate what is the new momentum of the car. In fact, the initial momentum is

p_i = mu = (1000 kg)(15 m/s)=15,000 kg m/s

And  so, the new momentum is

p_f = p_i + \Delta p = 15,000 + 6,000 = 21,000 kg m/s

What is true weightlessness ?​
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

weightlessness, condition experienced while in free-fall, in which the effect of gravity is canceled by the inertial (e.g., centrifugal) force resulting from orbital flight. ... Excluding spaceflight, true weightlessness can be experienced only briefly, as in an airplane following a ballistic (i.e., parabolic) path.

During a particular thunderstorm, the electric potential difference between a cloud and the ground is vcloud - vground = 3.50 10
wariber [46]
<span>The change in the electron's potential energy is equal to the work done on the electron by the electric field. The electron's potential energy is the stored energy relative to the electron's position in the electric field. Vcloud - Vground represents the change in Voltage. This voltage quantity is given to be 3.50 x 10^8 V, with the electron at the lower potential. The formula for calculating the change in the electron's potential energy (EPE) is found by charge x (Vcloud - Vground) = (EPEcloud - EPE ground) where charge is constant = 1.6 x 10^-19. Filling in the known quantities results in the expression 1.6 x 10^-19 (3.50 x 10^8) = (EPEcloud - EPEground) = 5.6 x 10^-11. Therefore, the change in the electron's potential energy from cloud to ground is 5.6 x 10^-11 joules.</span>

You are on a cruise ship traveling north at a speed of 13 m/s with respect to land. 1) if you walk north toward the front of the
Brrunno [24]

In order to find the our own velocity with respect to land,we need to apply the theory of relative velocity.


Now consider the velocity of the ship traveling towards the north with respect to land as A.Consider our own velocity headed northwards as B.

The relative velocity is the velocity that the body A would appear to an observer on the body B and vice versa.


In this case the relative velocity would be arrived by summing up our velocity with the velocity of the ship as the object (I) is travelling in the ship.


Relative velocity = Velocity of Body A+ Velocity of Body B.


Velocity of the ship traveling towards the north with respect to land(A)= 13.0m/s. (Given)

Our own velocity headed northwards(B)= 2.8 m/s.



Relative velocity = Velocity of Body A+ Velocity of Body B.


Relative velocity= 13.0 + 2.8 = 15.8m/s.


Thus our own velocity with respect to the land is 15.8 m/s.
