Answer:

Total momentum = 50kgm/s

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass, M1 = 5kg

Mass, M2 = 7kg

Velocity, V1 = 10m/s

Velocity, V2 = 0m/s (since it's at rest).

To find the total momentum;

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = Mass * Velocity

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total linear momentum of any closed system would always remain constant with respect to time.

Total momentum = M1V1 + M2V2

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Total momentum = 5*10 + 7*0

Total momentum = 50 + 0

<em>Total momentum = 50 kgm/s</em>

<em>Therefore, the total momentum of the bowling ball and the putty after they collide is 50 kgm/s. </em>

Which of the following statements about the force on a charged particle due to a magnetic field are not valid?
Vinil7 [7]
The correct answer is "None of the above; all of these statements are valid." All the statements namely, it depends on the particle's charge, it depends on the strength of the external magnetic field, it depends on the particle's velocity, and it acts at right angles to the direction of the particle's motion are all valid. Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.

How can resistance be useful and where can they be useful?
sergiy2304 [10]
-- Resistance can be useful among the population of a repressive government.
Although it can be dangerous for those who resist, it can also exert pressure
against the regime to alter its repressive practices.

-- Resistance can also be useful in electronic circuits. "Lumped" components with
known numerical values of resistance are used to divide voltage, limit current, and
dissipate controlled amounts of electrical energy.

Hydrogen fluoride gas (HF) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) react in a test tube. They form water and sodium fluoride (NaF). Which ty
solmaris [256]
The type of reaction that occurred in the test tube is ACID BASE REACTION.
Acid base reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which an acid and a base react together to form salt and water molecules. It is also known as neutralization reaction. For the question given above, the applicable chemical reaction is as follows:
HF + NaOH = NaF + H2O
 From this chemical reaction, it can be seen that, hydrogen fluoride, which is a weak acid react with sodium hydroxide which is a strong base to produce sodium fluoride, which is a salt and a molecule of water.
