A 0.80-kg soccer ball experinces an impulse of 25 N x s . Determine the momentum change of the soccer ball.
borishaifa [10]

If the impulse is 25 N-s, then so is the change in momentum.
The mass of the ball is extra, unneeded information.

Just to make sure, we can check out the units:

<u>Momentum</u> = (mass) x (speed) = <u>kg-meter / sec</u>

<u>Impulse</u> = (force) x (time) = (kg-meter / sec²) x (sec) = <u>kg-meter / sec</u>

In this circuit (see picture), which resistor will draw the least power?
Basile [38]
A few different ways to do this: 

Way #1: 
The current in the series loop is  (12 V) / (total resistance) . 
(Turns out to be 2 Amperes, but the question isn't asking for that.)

In a series loop, the current is the same at every point, so it's
the same current through each resistor.

The power dissipated by a resistor is  (current)² · (resistance),
and the current is the same everywhere in the circuit, so the
smallest resistance will dissipate the least power.  That's  R1 .

And by the way, it's not "drawing" the most power.  It's dissipating it.

Way #2:
Another expression for the power dissipated by a resistance is

                 (voltage across the resistance)²  /  (resistance)  .

In a series loop, the voltage across each resistor is

          [ (individual resistance) / (total resistance ] x battery voltage.

So the power dissipated by each resistor is

         (individual resistance)² x [(battery voltage) / (total resistance)²]

This expression is smallest for the smallest individual resistance.
(The other two quantities are the same for each individual resistor.)
So again, the least power is dissipated by the smallest individual resistance.
That's R1 .                                      

Way #3:  (Einstein's way)
If we sat back and relaxed for a minute, stared at the ceiling, let our minds
wander, puffed gently on our pipe, and just daydreamed about this question
for a minute or two, we might have easily guessed at the answer.

===>  When you wire up a battery and a light bulb in series, the part
that dissipates power, and gets so hot that it radiates heat and light, is
the light bulb (some resistance), not the wire (very small resistance).

Through which medium is it impossible to transmit sound waves?.
dusya [7]

Answer: vacuum

Explanation: The vacuum is the medium from where the sound wave cannot pass. A vacuum is basically an area without any air. Since the sound wave is a mechanical wave that's why it cannot travel through a medium where there is no matter of vibrations to works in, i.e, it can't travel through a vacuum.

The interference of two sound waves of slightly different frequencies produces
Leviafan [203]
Beats.

When two sound waves of different frequency approach your ear, the alternating constructive and destructive interference causes the sound to be alternatively soft and loud - a phenomenon which is called "beating" or producing beats. The beat frequency is equal to the absolute value of the difference in frequency of the two waves.
