The final velocity is 2.7 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the principle of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the system must be conserved before and after the collision.

Therefore we can write:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v  

where:  

m_1 = 3 kg is the mass of the putty

u_1 = 10 m/s is the initial velocity of the putty (we take its direction as positive direction)

m_2 = 8 kg is the mass of the ball

u_2 = 0 m/s is the initial velocity of the ball (at rest)

v is the final combined velocity of the two putty+ball

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find the  final combined velocity:

v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(3)(10)+0}{3+8}=2.7 m/s

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is the same as the initial direction of the putty.

Which statement describes the speed of electromagnetic waves?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Their speed in a vacuum is a constant value.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consits of oscillations of electric field and magnetic field. The oscillations of these fields occur in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the waves, so they are transverse wave. Electromagnetic waves, contrary to mechanical waves, do not need a medium to propagate, so they can also travel through a vacuum. In a vacuum, their speed is constant and has always the same value, the speed of light:

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s

a square loop whose sides are long is made with copper wire of radius , assuming resistivity of copper is . if a magnetic field
OLEGan [10]

A square loop whose sides are long is made of copper wire of radius , given the resistivity of copper is . if the magnetic field perpendicular to the loop changes at a constant rate of I = 14.029 mA.

The basic characteristic of a substance that measures how effectively it resists an electric current is called electrical resistance. A material with low resistance is a material that easily conducts electric current. A Greek letter is often used to indicate resistivity. Electrical resistance is a basic property of a material that measures how strongly it resists an electric current. The SI unit for electrical resistance is the ohmmeter.

We use magnetic field as a tool to describe how the magnetic field is distributed in the space around and inside something of a magnetic nature. A material with low resistance is a material that easily conducts electric current. A Greek letter is often used to indicate resistivity. An ohmmeter is a unit of electrical resistance in the SI system.

Focus groups are one of the most widely used ________ methods to gain greater understanding of a current problem or to develop p
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Exploratory

Explanation:

<u>Focus groups</u>

It is a small group of 8-12 respondents guided by a moderator through a thorough debate on a specific subject or idea.It's great for generation of ideas, brainstorming, insight into motives, attitudes, and perceptions. it can  show likes, dislikes,emotional requirements and prejudices.

Exploratory methods are used to gain initial insights that could pave the way for further investigation.

Some of the exploratory methods are focus groups, Key informant,case studies,secondary data and observational data.
