Given:
Momentum of the dog (p) = 120.5 kg m/s
Speed of the dog (v) = 5 m/s
To Find:
Mass of the dog (m)
Concept/Theory:
- It is defined as the quantity of motion contained in a body.
- It is measured as the product of mass of the body and it's speed.
- It is represented by p.
- It's SI unit is kg m/s
- Mathematical Representation/Equation of Momentum:
Answer:
By using equation of momentum, we get:
Mass of the dog (m) = 24.1 kg
The greenhouse effect is a warming effect caused by certain gases that retain heat from sunlight. Without such gases, the average surface temperature of the Earth would be below freezing, and as explained by the Encyclopedia of Environmental Science, “life, as we know it, would not exist.”

The global warming debate is centered upon whether added greenhouse gases released by human activity will overheat the Earth and cause harmful effects.</span><span>

<u>ALL of the following work assumes NO AIR RESISTANCE:</u>
1). an object moving under the influence of only gravity, and not in orbit; its horizontal velocity is constant, and its vertical motion is accelerated downward at 9.8 m/s²
2). a parabola
3). Horizontal: velocity is constant, acceleration is zero. . . . Vertical: acceleration is 9.8 m/s² downward, velocity depends on whether it was launched, thrown up, thrown down, dropped, etc.
4). a). the one that was thrown horizontally; b). both hit the ground at the same time; c). both hit the ground with the same vertical velocity
5). a). zero; b). zero; c). gravity ... 9.8 m/s² down; d). 3.06 seconds; e). 4.38 m/s; f). 30 m/s g). no; gravity has no effect on horizontal motion
6). a). 1.8 seconds; b). 13.1 meters; c). 17.6 m/s down; d). 7.3 m/s; gravity has no effect on horizontal motion
7). 45 m/s
8). without air resistance, the ball is traveling horizontally at 13 km/hr, and it lands back in your hand
9). a). 4.49 m/s; b). 29.7 m/s
10). 7.24 meters
11). 700 meters
12). A). 103.7 meters ( ! she's in big trouble ! ); B). 17.5 meters
