3 0

Answer:

a)5.925

ii)149.5 or383.5

Explanation:

ii)3.9×105-2.5×104

409.5-260

the zero in 260 may or may not be significant since it is after two significant figures thus we have two options

One billiard ball is shot east at 2.00 m/s. A second, identical billiard ball is shot west at 1.00 m/s. The balls have a glancin

Answer:

Velocity is 1.73 m/s along 54.65° south of east.

Explanation:

Let unknown velocity be v, mass of billiard ball be m and east direction be positive x axis.

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Initial momentum = m x 2i + m x (-1)i = m i

Final momentum = m x v + m x 1.41 j = mv + 1.41 m j

Comparing

mi = mv + 1.41 m j

v = i - 1.41 j

Magnitude of velocity

$v=\sqrt{1^2+(-1.41)^2}=1.73m/s$

Direction,

$\theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1.41}{1}\right )=-54.65^0$

Velocity is 1.73 m/s along 54.65° south of east.

A pan of ice is placed over a flame.

A. The molecules start packed together very tightly in a solid. Then when it turns to water, the molecules can move around each other freely, but still contained. When water turns to vapor, the molecules are going crazy moving around. They are not contained at all and bounce of of each other freely.

b. The temperature rises. (ice turns to water at 33 degrees and water turns to vapor at 212 degrees)

Nuclear power generates alot of power, ALOT. It requires Uranium and other radioactive substances to power it, which over time can degrade and become depleted. This radioactive waste would have to be placed somewhere, and it accumulates over time slowly.
