Answer:

The rolling basketball has greater momentum.

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is defined as the product of mass and velocity.

Given that the bowling mass has a greater mass than the basketball,

The bowling ball is at rest, so the velocity if the ball is zero.

The basketball is rolling, it has some velocity associated with it.

Therefore, the momentum of the bowling ball is zero.

The basketball has some momentum associated with it.

Hence, the rolling basketball has greater momentum.

With the aid of a string, a gyroscope is accelerated from rest to 16 rad/s in 0.40 s. what is its angular acceleration in rad/s2

vovikov84 [41]

Angular acceleration = (change in angular speed) / (time for the change)

Change in angular speed = (ending speed) minus (starting speed)

Change in angular speed = (16 rad/s) - (zero) = 16 rad/s .

Angular acceleration = (16 rad/s) / (0.4 s)

(Average) angular acceleration = 40 rad/s²

You walk from your bedroom, 25m to the mailbox, and then walk 25m back to your bedroom. What is your total distance? What is you

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Distance is 50m

Displacement is 0m

Explanation:

Distance is based on the amount of length you covered, regardless of where you end.

Displacement only considered where you started and where you ended, which is at the same spot in this case. Therefore, no displacement.

you check the weather and find that the winds are coming from the west at 15 milers per hour. this information describes the win

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

We finds that the winds are coming from the west at 15 miles per hour. This information shows the velocity of the wind. Since, velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. 15 miles per hour shows the speed of wind and west shows the direction of wind motion.

Hence, the given information describes wind velocity.

You plan to take your hair blower to europe, where the electrical outlets put out 240 v instead of the 120 v seen in the united

Dmitrij [34]

P = U × I
I = P / U = 1600W / 120V = 13.4A
P = 240V × 13.4A = 3216W

If your hair blower isnt rated for 220- 230V(this is the voltage in EU) you are most likely going to burn it.
