A- a hemisphere is one half of earth.
Answer:
Total momentum, p = 55 kg-m/s
It is given that,
Mass of player 1, m₁ = 85 kg
Mass of player 2, m₂ = 105 kg
Speed of player 1, v₁ = -8 m/s (west)
Speed of player 2, v₂ = 7 m/s (east)
Momentum is equal to the product of mass and velocity. For this system, momentum is given by :
p=m_1v_1+m_2v_2p=m
1
v
1
+m
2
v

p=85\ kg\times (-8\ m/s)+105\ kg\times 7\ m/sp=85 kg×(−8 m/s)+105 kg×7 m/s
p = 55 kg-m/s
The total momentum of the system made up of the two players is 55 kg-m/s.
When the life preserver is dropped from the helicopter, the only force acting on the object is the gravitational force. This modifies the equations of motion. Thus, the working equation is written below:
h = vt + 0.5gt²
where
v is the initial velocity
g is the acceleration due to gravity equal to 9.81 m/s²
h is the height of the fall
h = (1.46 m/s)(1.8 s) + 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(1.8 s)
h = 11.457 m
If this helps please rate 5 stars.
Oceanography covers a wide range of topics, including marine life and ecosystems, ocean circulation, plate tectonics and the geology of the seafloor, and the chemical and physical properties of the ocean. Just as there are many specialties within the medical field, there are many disciplines within oceanography.
