Answer:

2.4m/s towards the bowling pins

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the ball  = 6.6kg

Momentum of the ball  = 15.9kgm/s

Unknown:

Speed of the ball  = ?

Solution:

The momentum is the amount of motion a body posses;

      Momentum = mas x velocity

Insert the parameters and solve;

      15.9  = 6.6 x velocity

        velocity  = 2.4m/s towards the bowling pins

Kruka [31]

Answer:

the kinetic energy decreases and the potential energy Increases.

Explanation:

as the comet travels away from the star it gains an energy which it posses because of its position or state.once the comet moves away form the star the kinetic decreases until its lost all together to where the potential energy starts increasing.

(4. A bus is moving at 25 m/s when the driver steps on the brakes and brings the bus to a stop in
zlopas [31]

Answer:

(a)  the average acceleration of the bus while braking is 8.333 m/s

(b) if the bus took twice as long to stop, the acceleration will be half of the value obtained in part a.  [¹/₂ (8.333 m/s) = 4.16 s]

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the bus, v = 25 m/s

time of the motion, t = 3 s

(a)  the average acceleration of the bus while braking

a = dv/dt

where;

a is the bus acceleration

dv is change in velocity

dt is change in time

a = 25 / 3

a = 8.333 m/s

(b) If the bus took twice as long to stop, the duration = 2 x 3s

a = 25 / (2 x 3s)

a = ¹/₂ x (25 / 3)

a = ¹/₂ (8.333 m/s) = 4.16 s

Thus, if the bus took twice as long to stop, the acceleration will be half of the value obtained in part a.
