Law of conservation of momentum states that when two objects collide with each other , the sum of their linear momentum always remains same or we can say conserved and is not effected by any action, reaction only in case is no external unbalanced force is applied on the bodies.
Let,
m
A
​
= Mass of ball A
m
B
​
= Mass of ball B
u
A
​
= initial velocity of ball A
u
B
​
= initial velocity of ball B
v
A
​
= Velocity after the collision of ball A
v
B
​
= Velocity after the collision of ball B
F
ab
​
= Force exerted by A on B
F
ba
​
= Force exerted by B on A
Now,
Change in the momentum of A= momentum of A after the collision - the momentum of A before the collision
= m

Rate of change of momentum A= Change in momentum of A/ time taken

Force exerted by B on A (F

In the same way,
Rate of change of momentum of B=

​

Force exerted by A on B (F

.......... [ii]
Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction, then,
F

​
b=−F

​
a [ ' -- ' sign is used to indicate that 1 object is moving in opposite direction after collision]

Using [i] and [ii] , we have

Finally we get,

This is the derivation of conservation of linear momentum.

Answer:

500000N/m²

5250N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Depth(H) = 50m

Density of water  = 1000kg/m³

Acceleration of free fall  = 10m/s

Unknown:

Pressure the water exerts on the diver = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body. In fluids, pressure is the product of density, gravity and height

  Pressure in fluids  = Density x acceleration due to gravity x height

Input the variables and solve;

    Pressure in fluids  = 1000 x 10 x 50  = 500000N/m²

B.

width of window = 150mm

height of window = 70mm

Force water exerts on the window = ?

To solve this problem;

         Pressure  = \frac{Force}{Area}

Area of the window = width x height  = 150 x 10⁻³ x 70 x 10⁻³

                                                           = 1.05 x 10 ⁻²m²

Force  = pressure x area

Input the variables;

             = 500000N/m²   x  1.05 x 10 ⁻²m²

             = 5250N

A network engineer is subnetting the 10.0.240.0/20 network into smaller subnets. Each new subnet will contain between a minimum
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:255.255.255.224

Explanation:

/20 has a subnet mask of 255.255.240.0

We have 20 on bits for the network and 16 off bits for the host. Since the designer wants 20 to 30 hosts in each subnet we will be having 5 off bits for the host. Therefore we will be having a /27..

Which will be 255.255.255.224
