Answer:

The two people have the same momentum.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of person 1 is 50 kg and he is running at 2 m/s.

Mass of person 2 is 25 kg and he is running at twice  that speed i.e. 4 m/s

The momentum of an object is given by :

p = mv

For person 1,

p=50\times 2\\\\p=100\ kg-m/s

For person 2,

p'=25\times 4\\\\p'=100\ kg-m/s

So, it can be seen that both persons will have the same momentum. Hence, the correct option is (c).

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

3 meters

Explanation:

Given that,

Fido is initially standing near the person's feet. Initially, he jogs 10 meters in a straight line to retrieve a stick and carries it 7 m back toward the person before lying on the ground to chew on the stick.

Initially, he covers 10 meters of distance then it comes towards the person and covers 7 meters in front of the person.

It is clear that he is at a distance of 10 meters - 7 meters = 3 meters

guapka [62]

Answer:

a. Photogates placed at the beginning, end, and at various locations along the track that the car travels on.

b. A meterstick to measure the distance of the track that the car travels on.

Explanation:

Physics can be defined as the field or branch of science that typically deals with nature and properties of matter, motion and energy with respect to space, force and time.

In this scenario, a student is provided with a battery-powered toy car that the manufacturer claims will always operate at a constant speed. The student must design an experiment in order to test the validity of the claim.

Therefore, to test the validity of the claim, the student should use the following measuring tools;

a. Photogates placed at the beginning, end, and at various locations along the track that the car travels on. This device is typically used to measure time with respect to the rate of change of the interruption or block of an infra-red beam.

b. A meterstick to measure the distance of the track that the car travels on.

Hence, with these two devices the student can effectively measure or determine the validity of the claim.

A student allows the evaporating dish and the anhydrous salt for a long time on the lab bench. What will happen to the mass of t
Olenka [21]

Anhydrous salts absorb moisture from their surroundings when it gets cooled, hence the mass of the content would increase. It can be prevented if we allow the evaporating dish to cool in a dessicator. A dessicator is a glass or plastic container in which chemicals can be stored and allowed to cool. This container can be sealed. Dessicator would provide an environment free of moisture instead of keeping in atmospheric air having moisture content.

Read the question below.
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Experimental

Explanation:

Here the dependency of pressure on the temperature is to be determined. For finding this factor we need to calculate the pressure of the object at different temperature.

The process of calculating pressure for different temperature is experimental investigation because we need to perform this experiment for finding these value. On the basis of observed values the we can conclude the dependency.

Thus, this investigation is experimental.
