The answer is b.) the momentum before the collision is greater than the momentum after the collision

Answer: A.) The momentum before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision.

Explanation:

From the Law of conservation of momentum, in a closed system, the net momentum is conserved.

Be it elastic collision or inelastic collision, whenever there is no external force acting in a system, the net momentum is always conserved.

Thus, initial momentum before collision is equal to the final momentum after collision.

Correct option is A.

Can someone explain what is loss of seismic energy ?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Seismic attenuation describes the energy loss experienced by seismic waves as they propagate. It is controlled by the temperature, composition, melt content, and volatile content of the rocks through which the waves travel.

A thin, light wire 75.2 cm long having a circular cross section 0.560 mm in diameter has a 25.2 kg weight attached to it, causin
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The stress is calculated as 1.003\times 10^{9}\ Pa

Solution:

As per the question:

Length of the wire, l = 75.2 cm = 0.752 m

Diameter of the circular cross-section, d = 0.560 mm = 0.560\times 10^{- 3}\ m

Mass of the weight attached, m = 25.2 kg

Elongation in the wire, \Delta l = 1.10\ mm = 1.10\times 10^{- 3}\ m

Now,

The stress in the wire is given by:

Stress,\ \sigma = \frac{Force,\ F}{Area,\ A}          (1)

Now,

Force is due to the weight of the attached weight:

F = mg = 25.2\times 9.8 = 246.96\ N

Cross  sectional Area, A = \pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2} = \pi (\frac{0.560\times 10^{- 3}}{2})^{2} = 2.46\times 10^{- 7}\ m^{2}

Using these values in eqn (1):

\sigma = \frac{246.96}{2.46\times 10^{- 7}} = 1.003\times 10^{9}\ Pa

98 POINTS, 5 simple questions!! HELP
lozanna [386]

25,000 Feet = 7620m

PE = mgh where m is mass, g is gravity accel: 9.8 n h is height

= 90 x 9.8 x 7620

= 6720840J

= 6.72MJ

F = ma where m is mass, a is accel = gravity = 9.8

= 90 x 9.8

= 882N

Accel = gravity = 9.8m/s^2

KE = 1/2mv^2 where m is mass n v is vel

if no wind resistance, PE leaving airplane = KE at net

6720840 = 1/2 x 90 x v^2

v^2 = 149352

v = 386.5m/s

The Burj Khalifa in Dubai is the world's tallest building. The structure is 828 m 828 m (2716.5 ft) and has more than 160 storie
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

h = height of the hotel room from the ground floor = 237.4m

Explanation:

Change in Potential Energy of tourist = ΔPE = PE2 – PE1 = mgh

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the ground floor

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the top (hotel room)

Given

PE1 = − 2.01 × 10⁵ J

PE2 = 0J

PE2 – PE1 = mgh

0 – (− 2.01 × 10⁵ J) = mgh

2.01 × 10⁵ J = 86.4×9.8×h

h = 2.01 × 10⁵/(86.4×9.8) = 237.4m
