Calculate the momentum of a 1950 kg elephant charging a hunter at a speed of 7.50 m/s. (b) Compare the elephant's momentum with

that of a 0.0400 kg bullet fired at a speed of 600 m/s. (c) What is the momentum of the 90.0 kg hunter running at 8.00 m/s after missing the elephant?

Answer:

a) (momentum of the elephant), p1 = 14625 kg×m/s

b) p1 = 609.4×p2

c) (momentum of the hunter), p3 = 720 kg×m/s.

Explanation:

a) if m = 1950 kg is the mass of the elephant and V = 7.50 m/s be the speed of the elephant, then the momentum is given by:

p1 = m×V = (1950)×(7.50) = 14625 kg×m/s

b) if m = 0.0400 kg is the mass of the bullet and v = 600 m/s be the speed of the bullet, then the momentum of the bullet is given by:

p2 = m×v = (0.0400)×(600) = 24 kg.m/s

then:

p1/p2 = (14625)/(24) = 609.4

that is, p1 = 609.4×p2

Therefore, the momentum of the elephant is 609.4 times the momentum of the bullet.

c) the momentum og the hunter after missing the elephant is given by:

p3 = m×v = (90.0)×(8) = 720 kg.m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the hunter is 720 kg×m/s.

A particle's position along the x-axis is described by. x(t)= At+Bt^2where t is In seconds: x is in meters: and the constants A
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer

given,

position of particle

x(t)= A t + B t²

A = -3.5 m/s

B = 3.9 m/s²

t = 3 s

a)  x(t)= -3.5 t + 3.9 t²

   velocity of the particle is equal to the differentiation of position w.r.t. time.

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}(-3.5t + 3.9t^2)

v= -3.5 + 7.8 t------(1)

velocity of the particle at t = 3 s

  v = -3.5 + 7.8 x 3

 v = 19.9 m/s

b) velocity of the particle at origin

  time at which particle is at origin

  x(t)= -3.5 t + 3.9 t²

   0 = t (-3.5  + 3.9 t )

   t = 0, t=\dfrac{3.5}{3.9}

   t = 0 , 0.897 s

speed of the particle at t = 0.897 s

from equation (1)

 v = -3.9 + 7.8 t

 v = -3.9 + 7.8 x 0.897

  v = 3.1 m/s

The temperature of the cosmic background radiation is measured to be 2.7 k. What is the wavelength of the peak in the spectral d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

Explanation:

The peak wavelength of the spectral distribution can be found by using Wien's displacement law:

\lambda=\frac{b}{T}

where

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K is Wien's displacement constant

T is the absolute temperature

For the cosmic background radiation, the temperature is

T = 2.7 K

So, the corresponding peak wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K}{2.7 K}=1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

Which statement about thin lenses is correct? In each case, we are considering only a single lens. A. A diverging lens always pr
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to find the correct statements,

for this we can use the constructor equation

     1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p the distance to the object and q the distance to the image

In diverging lenses, the focal length is negative and the image is virtual and erect

In convergent lenses, the positive focal length, if the object is farther than the focal length, the image is real and inverted, and if the object is at a shorter distance than the focal length, the image is virtual and straight.

With this analysis let's review each statement

A) False. The image is right

B) False. The type of image depends on where the object is with respect to the focal length

C) False. The real image is always inverted

D) False. The image is always virtual

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect
