Answer:

The given phenomenon  supports the Principle of Conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

law of conservation of momentum  

Initial Momentum = Final Momentum

So, first we calculate initial momentum of the system:

Initial Momentum  = m1*u1 + m2*u2

and we are given

m1 = mass of car = 600 kg

m2 = mass of van = 400 kg

u1 = Initial Speed of Car  

to find the initial speed we use equation of motion

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 m/s + (0.2 m/s²)(60 s)

Vf = u₁ = 12 m/s  

u₂ = Initial Speed of Van = 0 m/s

Therefore,

Initial Momentum  = (600 kg)(12 m/s) + (400 kg)(0 m/s)

Initial Momentum  = 7200 Ns   .........(1)

final momentum = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

where,

v₁ = v₂ = final speed of car+van (both locked ) = 7.2 m/s

Therefore,

Final Momentum = (600 kg)(7.2 m/s) + (400 kg)(7.2 m/s)

Final Momentum = 7200 Ns   -------- (2)

on comparing (1) and (2)

Initial momentum = Final Momentum

Hence, the phenomenon of the system supports the principle of conservation of momentum.

Define momentum in terms of football.
inna [77]
The law of conservation of momentum basically means that energy is always conserved and never lost when a collision happens.

Using the formula p=mv ...
Player A would have a momentum of 220 N•S
Player B would have a momentum of 0 because he is not moving

After the collision, the total momentum is still 220 N•S because energy is never lost, but now player A is at 0 and player B took his momentum. Think about it this way, if you bumped into something that wasn’t moving, it would fall and you most likely wouldn’t keep moving.

Elastic collisions are where the objects bounce each other and in inelastic collisions they stick together. I don’t watch much football but if you do this should make sense.
If the players fall down together (they tackle each other and fall? I think) it should be inelastic.

Sorry if this was long and confusing but I really hope this helps! ☺️

Olin [163]

Answer:

heat required in pan B is more than pan A

Explanation:

Heat required to raise the temperature of the substance is given by the formula

Q = ms\Delta T

now we know that both pan contains same volume of water while the mass of pan is different

So here heat required to raise the temperature of water in Pan A is given as

Q_1 = (m_w s_w + m_ps_p)\delta T

Q_1 = (0.5(4186) + 0.750(s))\Delta T

Now similarly for other pan we have

Q_2 = (m_w s_w + m_ps_p)\delta T

Q_2 = (0.5(4186) + 1.50(s))\Delta T

So here by comparing the two equations we can say that heat required in pan B is more than pan A

<h2>Answers:</h2><h2 /><h2>a) Arrow B</h2><h2>b) Arrow E</h2>

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon in which a wave (the light in this case) bends or changes its direction <u>when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.</u>  Where the Refractive index is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material.  

According to this, if we observe the rays  A an D passing throgh the biconcave lens, we will have two mediums:

1) The air

2)The material of the biconcave lens

This two mediums have different refractive indexes, hence the rays will change the direction.

-For the incident ray A, the corresponding refractive ray is B, because is the ray that bends after passing throgh the lens

-For the incident ray D, the refracted ray is E following the same principle.

, 15.585 light years  , 11.13 light years

Explanation:

a)

t' = t/(\sqrt{1-(v/(c*v)/c)}

= 15.9/\sqrt{(1-0.7*0.7)}

= 22.26 years

b)

0.7*c*22.26 years

=15.585 light years  

c)

0.7*c*15.9

=11.13 light years
