2 answers:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

Momentum Is defined as the product of of mass and its velocity

Momentum (M) =mass *velocity

SI unit of momentum is kgm/s

The rate of change in momentum

=change in momentum / time

=(mv-mu)/t

Answer:

Momentum is simply the product of mass and velocity. It is represented mathematically as

Momentum = Mass x Velocity.

The S. I unit of momentum is kilograms meter per second i.e Kg.m/s.

Momentum is a vector quantity i.e it has both magnitude and direction.

Momentum of an object is greatly affected my the mass and velocity of the object as we can clear from the equation.

Gas and oil from the dead creatures, the gas, and oil are trapped under layers of rock
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Gas is on top of oil

Explanation:

Gas is less dense ( smaller density ) than oil which is more dense. Since density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume, gas will occupy a larger space than oil.

The larger space occupied is the space above the mixture of oil and gas, hence gas is above oil

Can a body have zero velocity and finite acceleration?Explain​
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Kinda? Depends what the question is fully asking

Explanation:

Acceleration is a change in velocity. So I guess if the velocity of something is -2 m/s and its positively accelerating at a value of +1 m/s, then that means every second its velocity changes by +1m/s.

So that -2 m/s thing after one second will be going -1 m/s.

After another second it'll be going 0 m/s.

After another itll be going +1 m/s and so on.

So at one point for a brief moment, it can have an acceleration but be at 0 m/s velocity.

Two cars are moving in the same direction at the same speed of (72.0 kmh). What is
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

0 km/h

Explanation:

Relative speed is the speed of a moving body with respect to another.

When two bodies move in the same direction then the relative speed is calculated as difference of their speeds.

In this case;

The two cars have the same speed. The relative speed will be;

72 km/h -72 km/h = 0 km/h

An airplane flies with a constant speed of 840km/h. how far can it travel in 1 hour?
arlik [135]
Distance = speed X time

In this example, the speed of the airplane = 840km. The time (that the question is asking)is how far can it travel in 1 hour.

So just plug in your numbers.

Distance = 840km X 1 hour = 840km/hour or 840km for short.
