Answer:

This came to mind

Explanation:

when a cannon fires (in real life or in the movies) have noticed that the cannon recoils, sliding backwards after the explosion. Again, a non-zero net force on the cannon changes its momentum.

How can we protect space shuttles or astronauts from space radiation in the absence of the atmospheric layer?

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

1. In general, the best shields will be able to block a spectrum of radiation. Aboard the space station, the use of hydrogen-rich shielding such as polyethylene in the most frequently occupied locations, such as the sleeping quarters and the galley, has reduced the crew's exposure to space radiation.

2. It absorbs harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun, helps keep Earth's surface warm via the greenhouse effect, and reduces temperature extremes between day and night. ... So, thanks to gravity, although some of Earth's atmosphere is escaping to space, most is staying here.

A certain frictionless simple pendulum having a length l and mass m swings with period t. If both l and m are doubled, what is t

iVinArrow [24]

If l and m both are doubled then the period becomes √2*T

what is a simple pendulum?

It is the one which can be considered to be a point mass suspended from a string or rod of negligible mass.

A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely.

Here,

A certain frictionless simple pendulum having a length l and mass m

mass of pendulum = m

length of the pendulum = l

The period of simple pendulum is:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

Where k is the constant.

Now the length and mass are doubled,

m' = 2m

l' = 2l

$T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{2l}{g} }$

$T' = \sqrt{2}* 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

$T' = \sqrt{2} * T$

Hence,

If l and m both are doubled then the period becomes √2*T

A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. What is the canoe’s kinetic energy? A. 40 J B. 80 J C. 18 J

rusak2 [61]

A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. 40 J is the canoe’s kinetic energy.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given canoe has the mass and is being given to move at a speed. Therefore the kinetic energy of the canoe can be calculated using the following method,

Given that mass of the canoe = 20 kg and its speed =1 m/s

As we know that the Kinetic energy has the formula,

$\text {Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2} \boldsymbol{m} \boldsymbol{v}^{2}$
