Answer:
A state of rest or balance due to the equal action of opposing forces.
The answer is d because you are using energy to pull the sled back up, which is mechanical energy
Momentum = (mass) x (velocity)
Original momentum before the hit =
(0.16 kg) x (38 m/s) this way <==
= 6.08 kg-m/s this way <==
Momentum after the hit =
(0.16) x (44 m/s) that way ==>
= 7.04 kg-m/s that way ==>
Change in momentum = (6.08 + 7.04) = 13.12 kg-m/s that way ==> .
-----------------------------------------------
Change in momentum = impulse.
Impulse = (force) x (time the force lasted)
13.12 kg-m/s = (force) x (0.002 sec)
(13.12 kg-m/s) / (0.002 sec) = Force
6,560 kg-m/s² = 6,560 Newtons = Force
( about 1,475 pounds ! ! ! )
Plate tectonics<span>is a </span>scientific theory<span> that describes the large-scale motion of </span>Earth<span>'s </span>lithosphere<span>. This theoretical model builds on the concept of </span>continental drift<span> which was developed during the first few decades of the 20th century. The </span>geoscientific<span> community accepted plate-tectonic theory after </span>seafloor spreading was validated in the late 1950s and early 1960s.<span>The lithosphere, which is the rigid outermost shell of a planet (the crust and upper mantle), is broken up into </span>tectonic plates<span>. </span>
