Answer:

p_{f} = 6 m / s

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using conservation of momentum. For this we define a system formed by the two balls, so that the forces during the collision have been intense and the moment is preserved

Initial instant. Before the crash

        p₀ = m v +0

Final moment. Right after the crash

        p_{f} = (m + m) v_{f}

how the moment is preserved

        p₀ = p_{f}

       m v = 2 m v_{f}

       v_{f} = v / 2

we calculate

       v_{f} = 12/2

       p_{f} = 6 m / s

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.

A proton moving at 8.00 106 m/s through a magnetic field of magnitude 1.72 T experiences a magnetic force of magnitude 7.20 10-1
gladu [14]

Answer:

19.1 deg

Explanation:

v = speed of the proton = 8 x 10⁶ m/s

B = magnitude of the magnetic field = 1.72 T

q = magnitude of charge on the proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

F = magnitude of magnetic force on the proton = 7.20 x 10⁻¹³ N

θ = Angle between proton's velocity and magnetic field

magnitude of magnetic force on the proton is given as

F = q v B Sinθ

7.20 x 10⁻¹³ = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) (8 x 10⁶) (1.72) Sinθ

Sinθ = 0.327

θ = 19.1 deg

In which situation will the lowest resistance occur?
MrMuchimi

C. Thick wire and cold temperature.

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by:  R = (ρL)/A

where ρ is the resistivity of the material, L is the length of the wire, A is the cross-sectional area of the wire.

From the formula, we see that the thicker the wire, the larger A, therefore the smaller the resistivity. so, a thick wire will have lower resistivity.

Moreover, the resistance of a wire increases with the temperature. In fact, high temperatures mean more motion of the atoms/electrons inside the wire, so more resistance to the flow of current through it. Therefore, colder temperature means lower resistance.

So, the correct option is thick wire and cold temperature.

In what ways does a stream transport its load, and which part of the load moves most slowly? Select all that apply.
vodka [1.7K]

Answer: Option (B)

Explanation: A stream transports its materials in different ways-

  1. <u>Dissolved load-</u> Here, the materials gets dissolved when mixed with water and flows along with the stream.
  2. <u>Suspended load</u>- Here, the materials are not fully dissolved in the water but they can be carried from one place to another in suspension mode, by the river.
  3. <u>Bed load-</u> Bed load are transported in three different ways such as-
  • Sliding- here, the materials slides down along a curved surface under the water and carried away.
  • Rolling- here, the materials are solid and due to force exerted by water, it can roll and move to distant places.
  • Saltation- here, the materials are carried away in a series of jumps.

Thus, the most appropriate answer is option (B) i.e bedload.
