Can someone please explain the conservation of momentum? I want to be a rocket scientist lol

1 answer:

4 0

The law of momentum conservation can be stated as follows. For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.

Define: New Moon, Full Moon, Waxing phases and Waning phases.

Full moon: All of the moon or sun appears covers by the shadow.
When the moon is waxing, it means that the lit part is getting larger (going towards a full moon)
When the moon is waning , it means that the lit part is getting smaller (going towards a new moon)
The new moon represents the start of a new lunar cycle and occurs approximately every 29 days.

Hope that help:)

The accepted value for the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2. What factors do you think are responsible for the difference

It’s hard to perfectly measure the distance something travels, as well as the exact time it takes, making the results have some variation.

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant

Elena L [17]

Answer:

19 m/s

Explanation:

The complete question requires the final speed to be calculated.

Velocity is the rate and direction at which an object moves. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time and can be calculated by the difference in velocity over a given time.

For this question, first the unknown acceleration must be calculated and used to determine the final velocity

Step 1: Calculate the acceleration

$a=\frac{v_{2}-v{1}}{t_{1}}$

$a=\frac{11-7}{8}$

$a=\frac{4}{8}$

$a=0.5 m/s^{2}$

Step 2: Calculate the velocity using the acceleration calculated above

$a=\frac{v_{3}-v{2}}{t_{2}}$

$0.5=\frac{v_{3}-11}{16}$

$v_{3}=19 m/s$

Ohm's law states which relationship between electrical quantities? a. Volts = current x resistance b. Volts = current divided by

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

a. Volts = current x resistance

Explanation:

Ohm's law states that at constant temperature, the current flowing in an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance in the electrical circuit.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is given by the formula;

$V = IR$

Where;

V represents voltage measured in voltage.

I represents current measured in amperes.

R represents resistance measured in ohms.

Hence, Ohm's law gives the relationship between voltage, current and resistance of an electric circuit.
