Answer:

mass is something that takes up space and weight is how much mass something has

Your mass will stay the same no matter what place while your weight can vary depending on the circumstances. For instance, in space you have no weight but you still have a mass. The weight is basically the force of gravity that is pushed upon you.

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed
Mashutka [201]

(a)

consider the motion of the tennis ball. lets assume the velocity of the tennis ball going towards the racket as positive and velocity of tennis ball going away from the racket as negative.

m = mass of the tennis ball = 60 g = 0.060 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the tennis ball before being hit by racket = 20 m/s

v = final velocity of the tennis ball after being hit by racket = - 39 m/s

ΔP = change in momentum of the ball

change in momentum of the ball is given as

ΔP = m (v - v₀)

inserting the above values

ΔP = (0.060) (- 39 - 20)

ΔP = - 3.54 kgm/s

hence , magnitude of change in momentum : 3.54 kgm/s

How does paving parking lots and roads with concrete or asphalt affect surface water and groundwater?
lidiya [134]
Parking lots with roads and concrete reduce infiltration. Infiltration is the process by which water penetrates the soil. Reducing the amount of water that enters the soil can eventually impact groundwater levels in some areas by decreasing it over time. Paved roads lead to increased surface runoff which increases the possibility of flooding in periods of heavy rainfall. This is known as urban flooding.

A boy is holding a ball 1 m from the ground with a force of 20 N. He holds it still for 60seconds. How much power in watts is be
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Power = 0.33 Watts

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 1m

Force = 20N

First of all, we would solve for the work done by the boy.

Workdone = force * distance

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Workdone = 20*1 = 20J

Now to find power;

Power = workdone/time

Power = 20/60

Power = 0.33 Watts.

Which statement best summarizes the central idea of “Applications of Newton’s Laws”?
Shkiper50 [21]

 

Newton's three forces, normal, tension and friction, are present in a surprising number of physical situations

Newton's Laws, that describe the relationship between an obejct and the forces acting upon it, apply in almost every physical situation, from quantum mechanics to electricity.

The correct answer is:

Newton’s laws can explain the forces that occur between objects every day
