Answer:

0.752 m/s

Explanation:

m1 = 3.00kg

u1 = 5.05m/s

m2 = 2.76kg

u2 = -3.66m/s

According to the law of conservation of momentum,

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

3(5.05) + 2.76(-3.66) = (5.05+2.76)v

15.15 - 9.2736 = 7.81v

5.8764 = 7.81v

v = 5.8764/7.81

v = 0.752m/s

If a rock climber accidentally drops a 52.5-g piton from a height of 325 meters, what would its speed be just before striking th
alex41 [277]
Ignoring air resistance, the Kinetic energy before hitting the ground will be equal to the potential energy of the Piton at the top of the rock.  
So we have 1/2 MV^2 = MGH 
V^2 = 2GH 
V = âš2GH 
V = âš( 2 * 9.8 * 325)  
V = âš 6370
 V = 79.81 m/s

Irina-Kira [14]
We simply asked to name three uses for mercury.
The most common and well-known use of mercury is the production of thermometers. It's property to stay liquid at room temperature makes it ideal for a temperature indicator. However, the use of mercury is thermometers has been phased out due to health hazards.
It is also used to form an amalgam which is the result of its combination with silver or gold. Mercury has been used to mine gold and silver. This application has also been phased out.
Today's use of mercury includes mercury-vapor lamps which are the bright lamps used in high-ways.

Describe the Compton Effect​
Nana76 [90]
<h3>Compton scattering, discovered by Arthur Holly Compton, is the scattering of a photon after an interaction with a charged particle, usually an electron. If it results in a decrease in energy of the photon, it is called the Compton effect. Part of the energy of the photon is transferred to the recoiling electron.</h3>

Two different liquids are poured into a jar until it is half full. The jar is then sealed shut and shaken. The liquids undergo a
Lilit [14]

Answer:

A closed system.

Explanation:

The three major types of system are: open, closed and isolated. Open system interacts with its surroundings with respect to its particles and energy. A closed system interacts with its surroundings with respect to energy but not its particles. While an isolated system does not interact with its surroundings in any way.

Therefore, after the jar is sealed, it is an example of a closed system. This is because the emitted gas could not escape into the surroundings, but thermal energy was emitted into its surroundings after the chemical reaction has taken place.
