Answer:

Object A

Explanation:

The object that would make you feel worse if you're hit by it is the object possessing the highest momentum. Thus, we need to find the momentum of the two objects.

Momentum of an object is the product of its mass and that of it's velocity. Momentum is given by the formula

P = M * V, where

P = momentum

M = mass of the object

V = velocity of the object

Now, solving for object A, we have

P(a) = 1.1 * 10.2

P(a) = 11.22 kgm/s

And then, solving for object B, we have

P(b) = 2 * 5

P(b) = 10 kgm/s

The object when the highest momentum is object A, and thus would make you feel worse when hit by it

A uniform beam resting on two pivots has a length L = 6.00 m and weight M = 220 lbs. The pivot under the left end exerts a norma
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

x = 4,138 m

Explanation:

For this exercise, let's use the rotational equilibrium equation.

Let's fix our frame of reference on the left side of the pivot, the positive direction for anti-clockwise rotation

         ∑ τ = 0

         n₁ 0 - W L / 2 + n₂ 4 - W_woman  x = 0

         x = (- W L / 2 + 4n2) / W_woman

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI System

         M = 6 lbs (1 kg / 2.2 lb) = 2.72 kg

         M_woman = 130 lbs = 59.09 kg

Let's write the transnational equilibrium equation

         n₁ + n₂ - W - W_woman = 0

         n₁ + n₂ = W + W_woman

        n₁ + n₂ = (2.72 + 59.09) 9.8

At the point where the system begins to rotate, pivot 1 has no force on it, so its relation must be zero (n₁ = 0)

          n₂ = 605,738 N

 

Let's calculate

         x = (-2.72 9.8 6/2 + 4 605.738) / 59.09 9.8

         x = 4,138 m

Weightlessness is experienced by an astronaut in space. This means that the astronaut's muscles have to be stronger to move his
just olya [345]
The answer is false. The speed of the astronaut cancels out the force of gravity, causing a 'stationary freefall'. While under these effects, it is not required for an astronaut to 'strengthen' his body.

All isotopes of a particular element have the same atomic number. How then do the isotopes of a particular element differ?
xz_007 [3.2K]
Isotopes of an element will contain the same number of protons and electrons but will differ in the number of neutrons they contain. In other words, isotopes have the same atomic number because they are the same element but have a different atomic mass because they contain a different number of neutrons
