3. A 6 kg block moving to the right at 4 m/s collides with and sticks to a stationary block of unknown mass. If the two blocks m

ove off to the right at 3 m/s, what was the mass of the stationary block?

Answer: 2kg

Explanation:

This problem is a textbook conservation of momentum problem. The intial momentum is equal to the final momentum. For the initial state of each block, only the first one was moving. Then they both combine to move together.

Pi = Pf

with p = mv

(6kg)*(4m/s) = (6kg+xkg)(3m/s)

Let x equal the unknown mass of block 2

24 = 18 + 3x

6 = 3x

x = 2kg

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

To convert 400 mm to m you can apply the formula [m] = [mm] / 1000; use 400 for mm. Thus, the conversion 400 mm m is the result of dividing 400 by 1000. 0.4

Suppose a thick nimbostratus cloud contains ice crystals and cloud droplets all about the same size. Which precipitation process
Ronch [10]

Answer:The most important process would be the ice crystal process

Explanation:

Ice crystal process also called Bergeron process requires numerous small water drops that are supercooled, which is a common feature in clouds between about 0° and -20°C or below, along with a small number of ice crystals. Therefore because the collision-coalescence process requires that cloud droplets be of varying size so that drops will fill at different speeds, the most important process would be the ice crystal process.

The idea that the universe began from a single point and expanded to its current size explains a large number of observations, i
murzikaleks [220]
The description of the question provided above points out to the famous Big Bang Theory. In addition, this theory is among the most accepted by cosmologists because it fits like a glove to the phenomenon the universe is experiencing right now: it is expanding and distances between celestial bodies are getting farther and farther.
