Answer:

Momentum

Explanation:

Momentum can be defined as the product of velocity of a moving body and its mass.

In this case we have two fishes with same velocity but different masses hence their momentum will also be different.

So as per the definition,  p = m * v

where p is the momentum

m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of object.

for comparison let us consider p1 is the momentum of first fish and p2 is the momentum of second fish.

p1 = 5 * 10

   = 50 kg m/s

and p2 = 2 * 10

            = 20 kg m/s

hence momentum of p1 is greater than momentum of p2

P = m.v
p1 = 5x10 = 50 <span>kg. m/s
p2 = 2x10 = 20 </span><span>kg. m/s
so the momentum of the first fish is higher than the second one.

List and describe three biological applications of electricity
mihalych1998 [28]

Before we dive into how electricity is used around the home it is worth putting household electricity use in perspective.

Household electricity use generally makes up about a third of total electricity consumption  in most developed nations.  Using data from the European Union we can give an example of how electricity demand is split among different sectors.

A record turntable rotates through 5.0 rad in 2.8 s as it is accelerated uniformly from rest. What is the angular velocity at th
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

\omega_f = 3.584\ rad/s

Explanation:

given,

turntable rotate to, θ = 5 rad

time, t = 2.8 s

initial angular speed  = 0 rad/s

final angular speed = ?

now, using equation of rotational motion

\theta = \omega_i t + \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

5 = 0+ \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha\times 2.8^2

\alpha= \dfrac{10}{2.8^2}

       α = 1.28 rad/s²

now, calculation of angular velocity

\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t

\omega_f =0 +1.28\times 2.8

\omega_f = 3.584\ rad/s

hence, the angular velocity at the end is equal to 3.584 rad/s

What phase difference between two identical traveling waves, moving in the same direction along a stretched string, results in t
Tom [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the amplitude of individual wave be I and resultant amplitude be 1.703 I . Let the phase difference be Ф in terms of degree

From the formula of resultant vector

(1.703I)² = I² + I² +  2 I² cosФ

2.9 I² = 2I² + 2 I² cosФ

.9I² = 2 I² cosФ

cosФ = .9 / 2

= .45

Ф = 63.25 .

The average specific heat of the human body is 3.6 kJ/kg·°C. If the body temperature of a(n) 96-kg man rises from 37°C to 39°C d
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

691200 J

Explanation:

From specific heat capacity,

ΔQ = cmΔt.................. Equation 1

Where ΔQ = increase in thermal energy, c = specific heat capacity of the body, m = mass of the man, Δt = rise in temperature.

Given: c = 3.6 kJ/kg.°C = 3600 J/kg.°C, m = 96 kg, Δt = 39-37 = 2 °C.

Substitute into equation 1

ΔQ = 3600×96×2

ΔQ = 691200 J.

Hence the change in the thermal energy of the body = 691200 J
