It’s because their molecules are tightly packed together

Answer:

Solids can hold their shape because their molecules are tightly packed together. ... Atoms and molecules in liquids and gases are bouncing and floating around, free to move where they want. The molecules in a solid are stuck in a specific structure or arrangement of atoms

A 41.0 g marble moving at 2.30 m/s strikes a 25.0 g marble at rest. What is the speed of each marble immediately after the colli

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

speed of each marble after collision will be 1.728 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the marble $m_1=41gram=0.041kg$

Velocity of marble $v_1=2.30m/sec$

Its collides with other marble of mass 25 gram

So mass of other marble $m_2=25gram=0.025kg$

Second marble is at so $v_2=0m/sec$

We have to find the velocity of second marble

From momentum conservation we know that

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_!+m_2)v$ , here v is common velocity of both marble after collision

So $0.041\times 2.30+0.025\times 0=(0.041+0.025)v$

v = 1.428 m /sec

So speed of each marble after collision will be 1.728 m/sec

A student standing on a stationary skateboard tosses a textbook with a mass of mb = 1.35 kg to a friend standing in front of him

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

a) $u_c=0\ m.s^{-1}$ & $m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta$

b) $v_c=0.0566\ m.s^{-1}$

c) $p_e=2.9218\ kg.m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the book, $m_b=1.35\ kg$

combined mass of the student and the skateboard, $m_c=97\ kg$

initial velocity of the book, $v_b=4.61\ m.s^{-1}$

angle of projection of the book from the horizontal, $\theta=28^{\circ}$

velocity of the student before throwing the book:

Since the student is initially at rest and no net force acts on the student so it remains in rest according to the Newton's first law of motion.

$u_c=0\ m.s^{-1}$

where:

$u_c=$ initial velocity of the student

velocity of the student after throwing the book:

Since the student applies a force on the book while throwing it and the student standing on the skate will an elastic collision like situation on throwing the book.

$m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta$

where:

$v_c=$ final velcotiy of the student after throwing the book

$m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta$

$97\times v_c=1.35\times 4.61\cos28$

$v_c=0.0566\ m.s^{-1}$

Since there is no movement of the student in the vertical direction, so the total momentum transfer to the earth will be equal to the momentum of the book in vertical direction.

$p_e=m_b.v_b\sin\theta$

$p_e=1.35\times 4.61\times \sin28^{\circ}$

$p_e=2.9218\ kg.m.s^{-1}$

What appliances use electromagnets

Svetlanka [38]

Electromagnets are used in home appliances quite regularly and are used even in simple home appliances. Common home appliances that use electromagnets are toasters, printers, and microwave ovens. Electromagnets are a certain type of magnet that does not function unless an electrical current flows through it. These appliances create the magnetic field by flowing electricity through certain parts of the appliance.
