1) The change in the momentum of the small object is given by the difference between its final momentum and its initial momentum:
\Delta p = p_f - p_i
where p_f, p_i are the final and initial momentum of the small object. Substituting the numbers of the problem, we find
\Delta p = - 5kg m/s -(6 kg m/s) = -11 kg m/s
where we put a negative sign in front of pf because the direction of the object after the collision is opposed to its initial direction.

2) The impulse is equal to the product between the force applied to an object and the time interval:
J= F \Delta t (1)
since the force is the product between the mass and the acceration: F=ma, and the acceleration is equal to the change in velocity divided by the time, we can rewrite (1) as 
J=F \Delta t=ma\Delta t=m \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \Delta t = m \Delta v = \Delta p
So, the impulse is equal to the variation of momentum. Therefore, the impulse exerted on the small object is
J=\Delta p = -11 kg m/s

3) We have to find the final momentum of the large object. Initially, its momentum is zero, because it is at rest. Using the law of conservation of momentum,
p_i + 0 = p_f + P_f
where p_f, p_i are the final and initial momentum of the small object, while P_f is the final momentum of the large object. By substituting the numbers we had before:
P_f = p_i - p_f = 6 kg m/s -(-5 kg m/s) = 11 kg m/s
So, the impulse exerted on the large object is equal to its variation of momentum:
J= \Delta P = P_f - P_i = 11 kg m/s -0 = 11 kg m/s

A spring stretches 0.150 m when a 0.30 kg mass is hung from it. The spring is then stretched an additional 0.100 m from this equ
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a)  k=19.6N/m

b)  V_m=0.81m/s

c)  a_m=6.561m/s^2

d)  K.E=0.096J

e)  T=0.78sec &F=1.29sec

f)   mx'' + kx' =0

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Stretch Length L=0.150m

Mass m=0.30kg

Total stretch lengthL_t=0.150+0.100=>0.25

a)

Generally the equation for Force F on the spring is mathematically given by

F=-km\\\\k=F/m\\\\k=\frac{m*g}{x}\\\\k=\frac{0.30*9.8}{0.15}

k=19.6N/m

b)Generally the equation for Max Velocity of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

V_m=A\omega

Where

A=Amplitude

A=0.100m

And

\omega=angulat Velocity\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{19.6}{0.3}}\\\\\omega=8.1rad/s

Therefore

V_m=A\omega\\\\V_m=8.1*0.1

V_m=0.81m/s

c)

Generally the equation for Max Acceleration of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

a_m=\omega^2A

a_m=8.1^2*0.1

a_m=6.561m/s^2

d)

Generally the equation for Total mechanical energy of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\frac{1}{2}*0.3*0.8^2

K.E=0.096J

e)

Generally the equation for  the period T is mathematically given by

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}

T=\frac{2*3.142}{8.1}

T=0.78sec

Generally the equation for  the Frequency is mathematically given by

F=\frac{1}{T}

F=1.29sec

f)

Generally the Equation of time-dependent vertical position of the mass is mathematically given by

mx'' + kx' =0

Where

'= signify order of differentiation

If an object absorbs all colors but red, we see

[I researched for you, since I am not in that particular level to know that knowledge yet. I assure this is accurate info :)]

The answer is A, red.
"Remember, the color you see is light REFLECTING off the surface of that object. If all colors are absorbed in to the surface EXCEPT red, red must be reflected, and you'll see red." - Yahoo User @Chap
