<u>The following statements are false about collisions: </u>

  • The velocity change of two respective objects involved in a collision will always be equal.
  • Total momentum is always conserved between any two objects involved in a collision.

Answer: Option B, and D

<u>Explanation: </u>

In any collisions, equal amount of net force will be acted upon the colliding objects due to the third law of Newton, irrespective of the significance difference in mass of the objects. Similarly, they can also have different acceleration values during collision of two objects if the masses are identical.

But the statements regarding the equal change in velocity of two objects respectively involved in collision always is false, as the conservation of momentum is applicable for isolated system only. So it is true for only isolated system and not in all the systems.

The same reason goes for falsifying the fourth statement which states that total momentum is always conserved between two objects involved in a collision as this statement is only true for isolated system where the conservation of momentum can be applied. Thus the second and fourth statement is false regarding collision.

Electrons flow from the negative terimal of a
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

The electrons flow from negative terminal of a battery to the positive terminal because as the charge of electron is negative, it will get repelled by the negative terminal of the battery

Conventional flow actually assumes that the current flows out of the positive terminal, through the circuit and into the negative terminal of the battery

It actually says that direction of flow of current is in opposite direction to the direction of flow of electrons

The direction of current will not change even a resistor is placed in the circuit and it generates a potential difference across the resistor

But the current tries to move in such a way in which there will be less resistance to the flow

Terry can ride 30 miles in 2 hours. If his riding speed is
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

Terry can ride at a speed of

V = 30 miles in 2hours

Speed = distance / time

V = 30 /2

V = 15 mile/hour

So, we want to know the distance traveled in 1.7hours

Then,

Speed = distane / time

Distance = speed × time

Distance =15 × 1.7

Distance = 25.5 miles

So, the distance traveled in 1.7hours is 25.5 miles
