Which of the following has the most momentum? proton (m=1.67 x 10-27 kg) moving at 2.0 x 104 m/s,an electron (m=9.11 x 10-31 kg)

moving at 2.0 x 106 m/s, a common house fly (m=12 mg) moving at 2.0 m/s, North American tectonic plate (m≈5x1022 kg) moving at 3.0x10-10 m/s (about 1cm/yr)

Answer:

The North American tectonic plate.

Explanation:

recall the formula for momentum: p = m * v

the subatomic particles have very small masses while high speeds, so the product results in values with negative exponents in scientific notation.

Negative exponents also result for the house fly when converting mg into kg (10^-6).

The positive exponents in scientific notation for the momentum come for the gigantic mass of the continental plate which exceeds the negative exponents contributed by the small velocity.

Select the statement that correctly lists the forces from strongest to weakest. (2 points)
Vilka [71]

Strong Nuclear force: it is the short range force and strongest fundamental force in all type of forces.

Electromagnetism: this is the force due to magnetic and electric behavior of the particles. It is moderate type of force and its range is more than Nuclear force.

Weak Nuclear Force: This force is also short range force which act between the nucleoside. But this force is also moderate type of force

Gravitational force: this force is between two point masses and least order of force. also the range of this force is upto infinite.

so the correct order of this fundamental force is

<em>strong nuclear, electromagnetism, weak nuclear, gravitational</em>

Answer:

α = 0.0135 rad/s²

Explanation:

given,

t = 133 min = 133 x 60 = 7980 s

angular speed varies from 570 rpm to 1600 rpm

now,

570 rpm = 570 \times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}

              = 59.69 rad/s

1600 rpm =  = 570 \times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}

              = 167.6 rad/s

using equation of rotational motion

ωf = ωi + αt    

167.6 = 59.7 + α x 7980

α  x 7980 = 107.9

α = 0.0135 rad/s²
