A skater of mass 40 kg is carrying a box of mass 5 kg. The skater has a speed of 5 m/s with respect to the floor and is gliding
without any friction on a smooth surface. a. Find the momentum of the box with respect to the floor. b. Find the momentum of the box with respect to the floor after she puts the box down on the frictionless skating surface.
For the part a) we need only the momentum of the box and we have the data to find it.
Momentum is given by,
where clearly, p is the momentum, m the mass of the box and v is the velocity.
Substituting,
For part b) we need an analysis of the situation. We understand that the box on a surface that has no friction will continue to rotate at the same speed previously defined. The box can only stop with friction, so,
When a bullet is fired from a rifle, the actual firing makes a distinctive sound, but people at a distance may hear a second because the bullet creates a shock wave , a little sonic boom( speed of this sonic boom is greater than the speed of sound). It is this sound only that is heard by the people at a distance from the gun.
Well heat comes out from the stove and moved to the pot and is TOUCHING. So the heat transfer would be conduction because the heat moves from one object to another by TOUCHING.
The similarity between them is they both involve heat, there is many but that's a simple one
