Answer:

120 kg•m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Case 1

Mass of object = M

Velocity of object = V

Momentum = 15 kg•m/s

Case 2

Mass of object = 2M

Velocity of object = 4V

Momentum = ?

Momentum is defined as follow:

Momentum = mass × velocity

The momentum of object in case 2 can be obtained as follow:

From case 1

Momentum = mass × velocity

15 = M × V

15 = MV ....... (1)

From case 2:

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 2M × 4V

Momentum = 8MV ....... (2)

Finally , substitute the value of MV in equation 1 into equation 2.

Momentum = 8MV

MV = 15

Momentum = 8 × 15

Momentum = 120 kg•m/s

Therefore, an object with a mass of 2M and 4V would have a momentum of 120 kg•m/s

Answer:

When there is wind it takes longer

Explanation:

With no wind, the round trip time is

$t_1=\frac{d}{v}+\frac{d}{v}=\frac{2d}{v}$

When we have a constant wind speed w

$t_2=\frac{d}{v-w} +\frac{d}{v+w} =\frac{2vd}{v^{2} -w^{2}}$

comparing the reciprocal times;

$\frac{1}{t_2}=\frac{v^{2}-w^{2} }{2vd}=\frac{v}{2d}-\frac{w^{2}}{2vd} \leq \frac{v}{2d}=\frac{1}{t_1}$

This means that t1 is smaller than t2, ergo, it takes longer with wind

Which of the following would decrease the resistance to the flow of an electric current through a body?

Nookie1986 [14]

R = ρ L/A. R= resistance, ρ= resistivity, L= length of the conductor. A = area of the conductor. Resistance is directly proportional to the length of the conductor. So if length of the conductor is decreased, resistance will also decrease. Hence A is the correct option

PLEASE HELP!

Harman [31]

Hey user!

your answer is here..

correct option is A. steel

we know that sounds travel faster in solid as compared to gas and liquids. in gas the molecules are very loosely packed and there is lot of space between so it takes more time to pass sound from each other. and in liquid, the molecules are closer as compared to gas hence it will be little faster and in solid, the molecules are very tightly packed so it will be the fastest. and among these options, steel is the only solid so the speed of sound in steel will be the fastest.

and note that the closer the molecules are to each other ( tightly packed ) makes the bond also tighter and less time to pass sound.

cheers!!
