Choose the +x-direction to point to the right. • Object 1 has a mass 1.66 kg and is moving to the right at 11.2 m/s. • Object 2

has a mass 6.59 kg and is moving to the left at 10.4 m/s. • What is x-component of the total momentum of the system in kg m/s? • Assume 3 significant figures for your final answer.

Answer:

M = 49.4kgm/s (towards the left)

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object

Momentum = mass * velocity

Momentum of Object 1 with mass 1.66 kg moving to the right at 11.2 m/s, is expressed as:

M1 = 1.66 * 11.2

M1 = 18.592kgm/s

Momentum of Object 2 with mass 6.59 kg moving to the left at 10.4 m/s is expressed as:

M2 = 6.59 * -10.4

M2 = -68.536kgm/s (negative since it is moving towards the left)

The total momentum will be the sum of momentum along the x-component as shown:

M = M1+M2

M = 18.592kgm/s--68.536kgm/s

M = -49.944kgm/s

M = 49.4kgm/s (towards the left)

The answer to fill in the blank in the question above is "greater than" based on the physic of the air density. The density of air is affected by the temperature and the pressure based on the ideal gas law. A high pressure will make the air becomes denser and the bottom of swimming pool has a higher pressure than the surface<span>.</span>

Can someone help me solve #6
MAVERICK [17]

So you know the speed of a wave, and speed is how much the wave moves per second. This wave travels 3x10^8 meters per second. So to find how for you traveled you need to know how many seconds the wave traveled for, 20 minutes is equal to 1200 seconds (times 20 minutes by 60). Then times the seconds by the speed (3x10^8 m/s)x(1200 s) = 3.6x10^11 meters

Focus Question: How are physical properties used to compare and classify substances?​
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Properties that can be determined without changing the composition of a substance are referred to as physical properties. Characteristics such as melting point, boiling point, density, solubility, color, odor, etc. ... Physical and chemical properties can be used to classify a substance as ionic or molecular.
