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.

The main advantage banking services offer is?
KATRIN_1 [288]
In short, and in general:

Advantages

<span>Credit Unions typically pay higher dividend rates on savingsCredit Unions typically offer lower rates on loansCredit Unions typically provide better service; since they are owned and governed by their membership, they tend to prioritize the needs of their members above all elseCredit Unions operate on a not-for-profit business model, so excess earnings are returned back to the membership in form of competitive rates and lower fees, and sometimes even special dividendsMany Credit Unions offer the same products and services found at banksCredit Unions often have added-value benefits, such as free financial education, discounted theme park tickets, and special member rates for services such as home alarm systems...even discounts at online retailers like Barnes & Noble.</span>Disadvantages

<span>Credit Unions, and in particular smaller local credit unions, struggle to match the level of convenience (ATMs and branches) that many banks provide their customers, although many CUs are part of shared networks which enhance the breadth of delivery channels available to their membersSome Credit Unions are limited in their product offeringsOne must qualify for membership <span>One must pay a membership fee to join. hope this helps!

The three branches of science are ____, earth, and physical
Rom4ik [11]
The three branches of science are life, earth, and physical science.
Life science deals with living organisms, so, biology is the most important of these sciences, although there are many.
Earth science deals with Planet Earth, studying its atmosphere, lithosphere, etc.
Physical science studies the inorganic world.

The lawn sprinkler consists of four arms that rotate in the horizontal plane. The diameter of each nozzle is 8 mm, and the water
sashaice [31]

Answer: the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec

Explanation:

First we calculate the linear velocity of the single sprinkler;

Area of the nozzle = π/4 × d²

given that d = 8mm = 8 × 10⁻³

Area of the nozzle = π/4 × (8 × 10⁻³)²

A = 5.024 × 10⁻⁵ m²

Now total discharge is dived into 4 jets so discharge for single jet will be;

Q_single = Q / n = 0.006 / 4 = 1.5 × 10⁻³ m³/sec

So using continuity equation ;

Q_single = A × V_single

V_single = Q_single/A

we substitute

V_single = (1.5 × 10⁻³) / (5.024 × 10⁻⁵)

V_single = 29.8566 m/s

Now resolving the forces as shown in the second image,

Vt = Vcos30°

Vt = 29.8566 × cos30°

Vt = 25.8565 m/s

Finally we calculate the angular velocity;

Vt = rω

ω_single = Vt / r

from the given diagram, radius is 300mm = 0.3m

so we substitute

ω_single = 25.8565 / 0.3

ω_single = 86.1883 rad/sec

Therefore the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec
