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.

Which of the following would most likely be considered nonpoint source pollution
fredd [130]
The best answer is b) increased turbidity from erosion.

Nonpoint source pollution generally happens as a result of many systems interacting, and is not directly attributed to one event or pollutant. Generally, natural environmental systems participate in pollution of this kind, regardless of whether or not human activity was a factor. Examples include water runoff, or erosion. 

The other pollutants listed have a direct cause and direct effect, the animal waste goes directly from the animals to the ground they live on, the car shop directly sumps the oil on the ground, and the oil tank leaks directly into the earth. Erosion causing turbidity is a less direct form of pollution, and is due to the synthesis of several natural phenomena<span />

A cyclist is riding his bike up a mountain trail. When he starts up the trail , he is going 8 m/s. As the trail gets steeper, he
Mrac [35]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

Our cyclist's change in speed = (3 m/s) - (8 m/s) = -5 m/s

Acceleration = (-5 m/s) / (60 seconds)

<em>Acceleration = -1/12 m/s²</em>

A 1420-kg car is traveling with a speed of 12.4 m/s. What is the magnitude of the horizontal net force that is required to bring
zzz [600]

Answer:

1419.01436 N

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-12.4^2}{2\times 78}\\\Rightarrow a=-0.98564\ m/s^2

The force on the car

F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=1420\times -0.98564\\\Rightarrow F=-1419.01436\ N

Magnitude of the horizontal net force that is required to bring the car to a halt is 1419.01436 N
