Answer:

Law of conservation of momentum states that. For two or more bodies in an isolated system acting upon each other, their total momentum remains constant unless an external force is applied. Therefore, momentum can neither be created nor destroyed.

Explanation:

Hope it helps

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum, general law of physics according to which the quantity called momentum that characterizes motion never changes in an isolated collection of objects; that is, the total momentum of a system remains constant

If p(a)=0.07692, p(b)=0.25, and probability of a and b. =0.01923, what is probability of a or b. to four decimal places? select

Triss [41]

Answer:

p(a) * p(b) = .01923

p(b) = .01923 / .07692 = .2500

A boat is traveling at an initial velocity of 2.7 meters per second in the positive direction. It accelerates at a rate of 0.15

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 4.5 \ m/s \ in \ the \ positive \ direction}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the final velocity of the boat.

We are given the initial velocity, acceleration, and time. Therefore, we will use the following kinematic equation.

$v_f= v_i + at$

The initial velocity is 2.7 meters per second. The acceleration is 0.15 meters per second squared. The time is 12 seconds.

$v_i$ = 2.7 m/s
a= 0.15 m/s²
t= 12 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

$v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s^2)(12 \ s)$

Multiply the numbers in parentheses.

$v_f= 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s/s * 12 \ s)$

$v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s *12)$

$\v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)$ $v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)$

Add.

$v_f=4.5 \ m/s$

The final velocity of the boat is <u>4.5 meters per second in the positive direction.</u>
