7. Jake is bowling with a 8 kg bowling ball. He rolls the ball at 7 m/s, and it hits one stationary pin with a mass of 2 kg. The

pin goes flying forward at 12 m/s. How fast is the bowling ball now traveling?

This is a conservation of momentum problem. Initial momentum must equal final momentum. 
Momentum= mass* velecoity
I will denote Ball as b and pin as p
Initial momentum= V(initial b)* Mass(b)+ V(initial p) *mass (p)
since the pin is stationary to begin that means velocity is 0 and we can plug in for the rest
Initial momentum= 7m/s*8kg=56 mkg/s
Now for final momentum=V(final b)*mass(b)+V(final p)*mass(p) plugin
final momentum=V(final b)*8kg+12m/s*2kg
we can set final momentum= inital momentum and solve for V(final b)
56mkg/s= V(final b)*8kg+ 24mkg/s
32mkg/s=V(final b)*8kg
4m/s=V(final b)
so 4 meters/second is the answer

Can someone help me a bit on this? Will mark brainliest. ( no physical science option soooo)
Advocard [28]

Answer:

When a light wave goes through a slit, it is diffracted, which means the slit opening acts as a new source of waves. How much a light wave diffracts<em> (how much it fans out)</em> depends on the wavelength of the incident light. The wavelength must be larger than the width of the slit for the maximum diffraction. Thus, for a given slit, red light, because it has a longer wavelength, diffracts more than the blue light.

The corresponding relation for diffraction is

d sin(\theta) \approx \lambda,

where \lambda is the wavelength of light, d is the slit width, and \theta is the diffraction angle.

From this relation we clearly see that the diffraction angle \theta is directly proportional to the wavelength  \lambda of light—longer the wavelength larger the diffraction angle.

What is one common electrostatic phenomenon​
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

There are many examples of electrostatic phenomena, from those as simple as the attraction of the plastic wrap to one's hand after it is removed from a package to the apparently spontaneous explosion of grain silos, the damage of electronic components during manufacturing, and photocopier & laser printer operation

An experiment is conducted using 2 plants to determine if the amount of sunlight they receive affects how fast they grow. Which
Phantasy [73]

Greetings!

The correct answer choice is Choice 4.

<em>Why?</em>

In a scientific experiment the only thing being changed is the independent variable. Everything else should stay the same.

In this experiment, the independent variable is the amount of sunlight each plant should receive. <em>Here's a tip</em>- when looking for and independent variable look for whats being changed on purpose.

Hope this helps!
