Little Tammy lines up to tackle Jackson to (unsuccessfully) prove the law of conservation of momentum. Tammy’s mass is 34.0 kg a

nd Jackson’s is 54.0 kg. Jackson is running at a velocity of 3.0 m/s. What must Tammy’s minimum velocity be in order to stop Jackson’s forward momentum?

Answer:

So Tammy must move with speed 4.76 m/s in opposite direction of Jackson

Explanation:

As per law of conservation of momentum we know that there is no external force on it

So here we can say that initial momentum of the system must be equal to the final momentum of the system

now we have

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = 0

final they both comes to rest so here we can say that final momentum must be zero

now we have

34 v + 54 (3 m/s) = 0

v = -4.76 m/s

The Earth's electric field creates a potential that increases 100 V for every meter of altitude. If an object of charge 4.5 mC a
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The final kinetic energy is  K =  1.1 \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The electric field is  E =  100 \ V/m

    The charge on the object is  q =  4.5 mC  =  4.5 *10^{-3} \ C

    The mass of the object is  m_o  =  68 \ g  = 0.68 \ kg

     The distance moved by the object is d =  1.0 \ m

The workdone on the object by the fields  is  mathematically represented as

   W =  [qE + mg]d

Now this workdone is equivalent to the final kinetic energy so  

      K = W =  [qE + mg]d

substituting values

        K = W =  [4.5*10^{-3  } *100  + 0.68 * 9.8]* 1

        K =  1.1 \ J

Our body contains ______________ potential energy from food we have eaten.
Alisiya [41]

Answer: Our body contains chemical potential energy from food we have eaten.

This chemical potential energy is transformed into the kinetic energy of our hands and arms as we rub our hands together.

As our hands move past each other and rub against each other, friction allows the kinetic energy to be transformed into thermal energy on the surface of our hands.

Explanation:

It is true that our food contains chemical bonds and these bonds have potential energy stored. So, when we eat food then our body acquires chemical potential energy.

When we rub our hands and arms then they form kinetic energy as atoms present within the skin of our hands come into motion. This rubbing of hands leads to the formation of heat which means thermal energy is being generated.

Thus, we can conclude that our body contains chemical potential energy from food we have eaten.

This chemical potential energy is transformed into the kinetic energy of our hands and arms as we rub our hands together.

As our hands move past each other and rub against each other, friction allows the kinetic energy to be transformed into thermal energy on the surface of our hands.

The lowest-pitch tone to resonate in a pipe of length L that is closed at one end and open at the other end is 200 Hz. Which one
ozzi

Answer:

e. 400 Hz

Explanation:

In closed organ pipe,  only odd harmonics of fundamental note is possible .

The fundamental frequency is 200 Hz . Then other overtones will be having following frequencies .

200 x 3 , 200 x 5 , 200 x 7 , 200 x 9 etc

600 Hz , 1000 Hz , 1400 Hz  , 1800 Hz .

Frequency not possible is 400 Hz .
