Which has a greater momentum: a ship weighing kg that is tied to a dock or a raindrop weighing kg that is falling from a cloud?

Answer: A raindrop

Explanation:

It would be a raindrop depending on if the ship is moving or not. If the ship is not moving, then the raindrop would have more momentum. But, if the ship were moving, then it would have more momentum. Because momentum equals mass times velocity.

Starting from your campsite you walk 3.0 km east, 6.0 km north, 1.0 km east, and then 4.0 km west. How far are you from your cam
Hatshy [7]
Think of it like a graph. You start at the origin which is (0,0).  go three to the east which now you are (3,0). Then, six to the north. Now, you are at (3,6).  1 to the east, ((4,6).  Then you go 4 to the west which is back tracking. So, you end at (0,6) which is saying you are now 6 km north from your campsite. 

Hope this helps!

stellarik [79]

Answer:

(a) 17.37 rad/s^2

(b) 12479

Explanation:

t = 95 s, r = 6 cm = 0.06 m, v = 99 m/s, w0 = 0

w = v / r = 99 / 0.06 = 1650 rad/s

(a) Use first equation of motion for rotational motion

w = w0 + α t

1650 = 0 + α x 95

α = 17.37 rad/s^2

(b) Let θ be the angular displacement

Use third equation of motion for rotational motion

w^2 = w0^2 + 2 α θ

1650^2 = 0 + 2 x 17.37 x θ

θ = 78367.87 rad

number of revolutions, n = θ / 2 π

n = 78367.87 / ( 2 x 3.14)

n = 12478.9 ≈ 12479
