When a boy throws a ball and accidentally breaks a window, the momentum of the ball and all the pieces of glass taken together after the collision is THE SAME as the momentum of the ball before the collision
hope this helps
There's no such thing as "stationary in space". But if the distance
between the Earth and some stars is not changing, then (A) w<span>avelengths
measured here would match the actual wavelengths emitted from these
stars. </span><span>
</span><span>If a star is moving toward us in space, then (A) Wavelengths measured
would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted from that star.
</span>In order to decide what's actually happening, and how that star is moving,
the trick is: How do we know the actual wavelengths the star emitted ?
Explanation:
Mass of the astronaut, m₁ = 170 kg
Speed of astronaut, v₁ = 2.25 m/s
mass of space capsule, m₂ = 2600 kg
Let v₂ is the speed of the space capsule. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :
initial momentum = final momentum
Since, initial momentum is zero. So,
So, the change in speed of the space capsule is 0.17 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The negative feedback is responsible for maintaining equilibrium (stability) in a system as it lessens effects, which is contrary to positive feedback which increases reaction and moves a system further away from equilibrium (stability), It does so by amplifying the effects of a product or event and occurs when something needs to happen quickly. e.g
- Insulin lowers down blood sugar levels, so when the body detects that it has too much sugar, the pancreas is prompted to release insulin and only stops when balance is achieved; hence, negative feedback.
- When there is a tear on the skin, a chemical is released. This chemical causes platelets in the blood to activate, hence they release a chemical which signals more platelets to activate, until the wound is clotted, positive feedback.
