Answer:

A.  Kinetic energies are equal.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the bodies will be equal since the mass and speed are the same.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body.

Mathematically;

           K.E  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the speed

 The kinetic energy is a scalar quantity with no regard for direction.

Four heavy elements (A, B, C, and D) will fission when bombarded by neutrons. In addition to fissioning into two smaller element
Zolol [24]

Answer:

<em>Element C will be best for a nuclear fission reaction</em>

Explanation:

<em>Nuclear fission is the splitting of the nucleus of a heavy atom by bombarding it with a nuclear particle. The reaction leads to the the atom splitting into two smaller elements and a huge amount of energy is liberated in the process.</em> For the reaction to be continuous in a chain reaction,<em> the best choice of element to use as fuel for the reaction should be the element whose nucleus also liberates a neutron particle after fission</em>. The neutron that is given off by other atoms in the reaction will then proceed to bombard other atoms of the element in the reaction, creating a cascade of fission and bombardment within the nuclear reactor.

How are the climates of coastal regions affected by the specific heat capacity of water?
Katen [24]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity can be defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 unit of mass by 1 unit temperature. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.186 joule/gram °C which is higher than common substances. The land has lower specific heat capacity. Thus, the land gets hot quickly than water.

This results in warming up air near the land which creates a difference in pressure across the coastal region. Sea breeze blows from sea towards landmass. Opposite happens at night, when water is still warm and land gets cooled down quickly. Then land breeze blows  from landmass towards the sea. This breeze maintains a moderate temperature and windy and humid weather in the coastal regions.

When measuring an unknown voltage with an analog VOM, you should first
Soloha48 [4]
If you have no idea what the voltage is that you're about to measure,
then you should set the meter to the highest range before you connect
it to the two points in the circuit. 

Analog meters indicate the measurement by moving a physical needle
across a physical card with physical numbers printed on it.  If the unknown
voltage happens to be 100 times the full range to which the meter is set,
then the needle may find itself trying to move to a position that's 100 times
past the highest number on the meter's face.  You'll hear a soft 'twang',
followed by a louder 'CLICK'.  Then you'll wonder why the meter has no
needle on it, and then you'll walk over to the other side of the room and
pick up the needle off the floor, and then you'll probably put the needle
in your pocket.  That will end your voltage measurements for that day,
and certainly for that meter. 

Been there.
Done that.

If the total momentum of a system is changing:
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

(d) a net external force must be acting on the system

Explanation:

Momentum is given as the product of mass and velocity.

P = MV

According to Newton's second law of motion, " Force applied to a body (system) is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the body (system) which takes place in the direction of the applied force (external force).

F ∝ΔMV

Therefore, If the total momentum of a system is changing, a net external force must be acting on the system.

(d) a net external force must be acting on the system
