Answer:
7200 kg.m/s
Explanation:
According the law of conservation of linear momentum, the sum of momentum before and after collision are equal.
Using this principle, the sum of initial momentum will be given as p=mv where p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity
Initial momentum
Mass of whale*initial velocity of whale + mass of seal*initial seal velocity
Since the seal is initially stationary, its velocity is zero. By substitution and taking right direction as positive
Initial momentum will be
1200*6+(280*0)=7200 kg.m/s
Since both initial and final momentum should be equal, hence the final momentum will also be 7200 kg.m/s
It's true IF ' m ' stands for mass and ' v ' stands for acceleration. Otherwise it's false.
On a Fahrenheit thermometer, the gas becomes 18 degrees warmer.
