Answer:

A)   50 kg m/s

B)  2 kg m/s

C)  100 kg m/s

Explanation:

Recall that momentum is a physical quantity defined by the product of the object's mass times its velocity. Therefore, in our case the truck's momentum (p) is:

A)  p = m * v = 10 kg * 5 m/s = 50 kg m/s

B) p = m * v = 10 kg * 0.20 m/s = 2 kg m/s (notice that the velocity in cm/s was converted into m/s before multiplying)

C) the conversion from km/h to m/s is a little more involved, so we taclke it first:

since 1 km = 1000 m  and 1 hour = 3600 seconds, we convert 36 km/h by replacing each unit by its m and s expression as shown below:

36 \frac{km}{h} =36\,\frac{1000\,m}{3600\,\,s}=10\,\frac{m}{s}

Then, the momentum is:  p = m * v = 10 kg * 10 m/s = 100 kg m/s

What is your speed (in m/s) if you walk 1000m in 20 minutes? (Hint: how many seconds are in a minute)
labwork [276]

Answer:

20min = 20 × 60 = 1200sec.

Speed in m per sec.

V = 1000/1200

V = 0.833m per sec.

During the latter part of your European vacation, you are hanging out at the beach at the gold coast of Spain. As you are laying
Jlenok [28]

Well, I guess you can come close, but you can't tell exactly.

It must be presumed that the seagull was flying through the air
when it "let fly" so to speak, so the jettisoned load of ballast
of which the bird unburdened itself had some initial horizontal
velocity.

That impact velocity of 98.5 m/s is actually the resultant of
the horizontal component ... unchanged since the package
was dispatched ... and the vertical component, which grew
all the way down in accordance with the behavior of gravity.

  98.5 m/s  =  √ [ (horizontal component)² + (vertical component)² ].

The vertical component is easy; that's (9.8 m/s²) x (drop time).
Since we're looking for the altitude of launch, we can use the
formula for 'free-fall distance' as a function of acceleration and
time:

             Height = (1/2) (acceleration) (time²) .

If the impact velocity were comprised solely of its vertical
component, then the solution to the problem would be a
piece-o-cake.

                  Time = (98.5 m/s) / (9.81 m/s²) = 10.04 seconds
whence
                 Height = (1/2) (9.81) (10.04)²

                            =   (4.905 m/s²) x (100.8 sec²)  =  494.43 meters.

As noted, this solution applies only if the gull were hovering with
no horizontal velocity, taking careful aim, and with malice in its
primitive brain, launching a remote attack on the rich American.

If the gull was flying at the time ... a reasonable assumption ... then
some part of the impact velocity was a horizontal component.  That
implies that the vertical component is something less than 98.5 m/s,
and that the attack was launched from an altitude less than 494 m.

True or false as heat and pressure decreases one type of metamorphic rock will transform into another type
dezoksy [38]

Answer: True

Explanation:  Metamorphism is the changing of rocks by heat and pressure. During this process, rocks change either physically and/or chemically. They change so much that they become an entirely new rock. Figure 4.22: The platy layers in this large outcrop of metamorphic rock show the effects of pressure on rocks during metamorphism.
