At what speed does the kg ball move ?

Physics
1 answer:
Vladimir [108]3 years ago

Answer:  Choice A) 2 meters per second

=======================================================

Explanation:

The smaller ball has momentum of

p = m*v

p = (1 kg)*(4 m/s)

p = 4 kg*m/s

All of this momentum transfers into the larger ball because the smaller ball comes to a complete stop.

For the larger ball, we have p = 4 and m = 2. Let's find v.

p = m*v

4 = 2*v

4/2 = v

2 = v

v = 2 m/s which is why the answer is choice A

The larger ball moves at a speed of 2 meters per second. The speed is cut in half compared to the smaller ball because the larger ball has more inertia (aka more mass), and therefore it takes more energy to move it. If you apply the same energy to each, then the smaller object moves faster.

As a cold air mass advances on a warm air mass, what usually comes before it?​
Marina CMI [18]

Answer: A cold front occurs when a cold air mass advances into a region occupied by a warm air mass. If the boundary between the cold and warm air masses doesn't move, it is called a stationary front.

Explanation: Two types of occluded front exist: the warm-type and the cold-type. They’re distinguished by the relative temperatures of the air mass ahead of the occlusion – in other words, the air mass ahead of the original warm front – and the air mass behind the cold front. If the air behind the cold front is colder than the air ahead of the occlusion, it shoves beneath that air (because it’s denser) to form a cold-type occluded front. If the air behind the cold front is warmer than the air ahead, it rides over it to form a warm-type occluded front – which appears to be the more common case. In either situation, the lighter warm air representing the air mass originally between the warm and cold fronts sits above the boundary between the two cooler air masses.

Hope this helps!!

Leto [7]
When you look vertically downwards into a swimming pool full of water the bottom of the pool seems closer to you than it really is. The apparent depth at this point can be worked out using the formula:

Apparent depth = Real depth/Refractive index of water

However as you look towards the end of the pool the bottom seems to curve upwards – we are thinking about a pool of constant depth to start with.


If the depth of the pool really does change then the situation becomes more complex and you would need to allow for that when drawing the diagram
