an object has a momentum of 250 kg m/s what would be the momentum of an object that has half of the mass and going at the same v

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The momentum of the second object is 125 kg m/s

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by

$p=mv$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

For the object in this problem,

$p = 250 kg m/s$

And its mass is m and its velocity is v.

The second object has a mass of $m' = \frac{m}{2}$ and same velocity v, so its momentum is

$p'=m'v = (\frac{m}{2})v=\frac{1}{2}(mv)=\frac{1}{2}p$

So, the second object has a momentum that is half of the momentum of the first object, therefore it is:

$p'=\frac{1}{2}(250)=125 kg m/s$

Two metal spheres are hanging from nylon threads. When you bring the spheres close to each other, they tend to attract. Based on

Tamiku [17]

Explanation:

In the given question, the two metal spheres were hanged with the nylon thread.

When these two spheres were brought close together, they attracted each other. The attraction between these spheres is the result of the opposite charges between them.

The possible ways by which these two metal spheres can be charged are by induction that is touching the metal or by rubbing them.

During induction, the same charges are transferred to each sphere. In this case, either both the spheres will be negatively charged or positively charged.

It is not possible that after the sphere touch each other they will cling together because the same charge repels each other and during touching, if one sphere is neutral, then the charged one will transfer the same charge. And as we know that same charge repel each other therefore they will repel each other.
