Answer:

6.571428571m/s

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is basically a measure of its motion, and it takes both mass and the velocity an object is travelling at into account.

Momentum = mass x velocity

(sub in values from question)

241.5=36.75v

v=6.571428571m/s

If the volume is held constant, what happens to the pressure of a gas as temperature is decreased? Explain.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:Decreases

Explanation:

Given

Volume is held constant that is it is a isochoric process.

We know that

PV=nRT

as n,V& R are constant therefore only variables are

P & T

so $\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

$\frac{P_1}{P_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}$

As $T_1$ is decreasing therefore Pressure must also decrease so that ratio remains constant.

How does a nuclear power plant produce energy

nalin [4]

The steam then turns turbines to produce electricity. The difference is that nuclear plants do not burn anything. Instead, they use uranium fuel, consisting of solid ceramic pellets, to produce electricity through a process called fission. best i can do hope it helps

A flare is launched from a life raft with an initial velocity of 192 ft/sec. How many seconds will it take for the flare to retu

DIA [1.3K]

We use the formula,

$h= ut- 16 t^2$

Here, h is the variable represents the height of the flare in feet when it returns to the sea so, h = 0 and u is the initial velocity of the flare, in feet per second and its value of 192 ft/sec.

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

$0 = 192 t - 16 t^2 \\\\ 16 t( 12 - t ) =0 \\\\ t = 12 s$ .

Here, t= 0 neglect because it is the time when the flare is launched.

Thus, flare return to the sea in 12 s.
