A piece of putty and a tennis ball with the same mass are thrown against a wall with the same velocity. Which object experiences

a greater force from the wall or are the forces equal

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to define momentum.

Momentum is define as the product of mass and velocity.

That is P = mass×velocity

Also considering the third law of motion which states that: For every action, there is equal and opposite reaction.

Moreso, considering the 2nd law of motion which states that the rate of change in the momentum of a body is equal to the applied force and takes place in the direction of the applied force.

Now, applying P = mass×velocity

They both have same mass and velocity definitely, they will both experience same momentum.

Also from the question, the both share same velocity hence, the will both hit the wall with same velocity meaning the will both feel the same impact from the wall as well. Hence the third law of motion proves this right.

A 1250-kg compact car is moving with velocity v1 =36.2i^+12.7j^m/s. It skids on a frictionless icy patch and collides with a 448
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Momentum is conserved, so the sum of the separate momenta of the car and wagon is equal to the momentum of the combined system:

(1250 kg) ((36.2 <em>i</em> + 12.7 <em>j </em>) m/s) + (448 kg) ((13.8 <em>i</em> + 10.2 <em>j</em> ) m/s) = ((1250 + 448) kg) <em>v</em>

where <em>v</em> is the velocity of the system. Solve for <em>v</em> :

<em>v</em> = ((1250 kg) ((36.2 <em>i</em> + 12.7 <em>j </em>) m/s) + (448 kg) ((13.8 <em>i</em> + 10.2 <em>j</em> ) m/s)) / (1698 kg)

<em>v</em> ≈ (30.3 <em>i</em> + 12.0 <em>j</em> ) m/s

HELP PLEASE!!
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

C. More of the heat is transferred to the kinetic energy of the copper atoms than to the kinetic energy of the water molecules.

Explanation:

Both equal masses of water and copper were heated at the same temperature. Since copper is a good conductor of heat compared to water, its  absorbs more heat. Which in-turn increases the rate of vibrations of the atoms in the copper mass, thus increasing their kinetic energy.

In the case of water, its molecules displaces one another after being heated to a higher temperature compared to neighboring molecules. So that the heated molecule becomes less dense and floats to the surface of water.

This property of copper makes it to be heated to a higher final temperature than the water.

1. Spring force is proportional to stretch distance, F=kd. Do you expect doubling the stretch distance double the force?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The spring force is given as:

          F  = kd

F is the spring force

K is the spring constant

d is the magnitude of the stretch

 Since k is a constant, therefore, doubling the stretch distance will double the force.

Both stretch distance and force applied can be said to be directly proportional to one another.
