we know that momentum is given as

P = mv

where P = momentum , m = mass , v = velocity

taking derivative both side relative to "t"

dP/dt = v (dm/dt)

we know that :  dP/dt  = F = force

hence

F = v (dm/dt)

given that :

dm/dt = rate of mass expelled = 1500 kg/s

v = velocity = 4 x 10⁴ m/s

hence  , inserting the values in the above formula

F = (4 x 10⁴) (1500)

F = 6 x 10⁷ N

Two identical balloons of the same volume are pumped up with air to more than atmospheric pressure and suspended on the ends of
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The balance will be upset and it will tip to the side of the still pumped ballon.

Explanation:

Given that the balloons are pumped to more than atmospheric pressure it means that the air inside has a higher density than the air outside. If you punture one balloon the air will be released and now you have on both sides the weight of the balloons itselves, but on the side of the still pumped balloon you will have a greater amount of air (is more dense) so more weight. Considering this, the balance will be upset and it will tip to the side of the still pumped ballon.

You are given two infinite, parallel wires each carrying current I. The wires are separated by a distance d, and the current in
hoa [83]

Answer:F/L = μ0*I²/2πd

Explanation:

Both wires carries current of the value (I) and are separated by the distance (d).

The length of both wires is (L).

The first wire creates a magnetic field of the magnitude according to Bio-savart law

B=(Uo * I)/2πd

This magnetic field has the ability to exert a force F on the second wire.

This force (F) is given as

F=BIL* sin θ

θ here is 90 because the magnetic field is perpendicular to the length of the second wire.

Thus the value of sin 90 = 1

Hence F= BIL

But B=(Uo * I)/2πd.

We have that F= B=[(Uo * I)/2πd] x IL

Thus we have that F= [Uo* I²/2πd] x L

By rearranging, and bringing L to the left hand side of the equation, we have that

F/L = [Uo* I²/2πd]

A white blood cell has a diameter of approximately 12 micrometers or 0.012 um a model represents its diameter as 24 um what rati
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The ratio of the model size is 1 : 2000

Explanation:

Given

Real Diameter =  0.012 um

Scale Diameter =  24 um

Required

Determine the scale ratio

The scale ratio is calculated as follows;

Scale = \frac{Real\ Measurement}{Scale\ Measurement}

Substitute values for real and scale measurements

Scale = \frac{0.012\ um}{24\ um}

Divide the numerator and the denominator by 0012um

Scale = \frac{1}{2000}

Represent as ratio

Scale = 1 : 2000

<em>Hence, the ratio of the model size is 1 : 2000</em>
