3 0

Answer:

Tortoise with a mass of 270 kg moving at a velocity of 0.5 m/s

Explanation:

From the question above,

(1) tortoise with a mass of 270 kg moving at a velocity of 0.5 m/s

Mometum = mass×velocity

Momentum = 270×0.5

Momentum = 135 kgm/s

(2) hare with a mass of 2.7 kg moving at a velocity of 7 m/s

Mementum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 2.7×7

Momentum = 18.9 kgm/s

(3) turtle with a mass of 91 kg moving at a velocity of 1.4 m/s

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 91×1.4

Momentum = 127.4 kgm/s

(4) roadrunner with a mass of 1.8 kg moving at a velocity of 6.7 m/s

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 1.8×6.7

Momentum = 12.06 kgm/s

From the above, the one with the greatest momentum is tortoise with a mass of 270 kg moving at a velocity of 0.5 m/s

What is the difference between free fall and weightlessness??
joja [24]
When you are in free fall, the force of gravity is stronger than your velocity perpendicular to where you're falling, and you move at a constant speed downwards.

Under feelings of weightlessness, you are still being pulled by gravity, but your perpendicular velocity and distance from the source can cancel each other out.

An electron is moving east in a uniform electric field of 1.55 N/C directed to the west. At point A, the velocity of the electro
valkas [14]

Answer:

Final velocity of electron, v=6.45\times 10^5\ m/s    

Explanation:

It is given that,

Electric field, E = 1.55 N/C

Initial velocity at point A, u=4.52\times 10^5\ m/s

We need to find the speed of the electron when it reaches point B which is a distance of 0.395 m east of point A. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as :

v^2=u^2+2as........(1)

a is the acceleration, a=\dfrac{F}{m}

We know that electric force, F = qE

a=\dfrac{qE}{m}

Use above equation in equation (1) as:

v^2=u^2+\dfrac{2qEs}{m}

v^2=(4.52\times 10^5\ m/s)^2+2\times \dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 1.55\ N/C}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}\times 0.395\ m

v = 647302.09 m/s

or

v=6.45\times 10^5\ m/s

So, the final velocity of the electron when it reaches point B is 6.45\times 10^5\ m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

What term is used to describe all of the wavelengths of light waves?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

B.electromagnetic spectrum

Explanation:

Electromagnetic spectrum is used to  describe all of the wavelengths of light waves.Generally wavelength of the wave is denoted by λ.

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crest .Wavelength of the red color is minimum and wavelength of the violet color is maximum in the light  spectrum.

So the answer is B.

Electromagnetic spectrum
