Answer:

\Delta p=2.27\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}

Explanation:

The momentum change is defined as:

\Delta p=p_f-p_i\\\Delta p=mv_f-mv_i\\\Delta p=m(v_f-v_i)(1)

Taking the downward motion as negative and the upward motion as positive, we have:

v_f=2\frac{m}{s}(2)\\v_i=-2\frac{m}{s}(3)

Replacing (2) and (3) in (1):

\Delta p=567*10^{-3}kg(2\frac{m}{s}-(-2\frac{m}{s}))\\\Delta p=2.27\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}

A car travels 15 kilometers west in 10 minutes. After reaching the destination, the car travels back to the starting point, agai
jeka94

Speed = (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).
 
Strange as it may seem, 'velocity' is completely different. 

Velocity doesn't involve the total distance traveled at all. 
Instead, 'velocity' is based on 'displacement' ... the distance
between the start-point and end-point, regardless of the route
taken to get there.  So the displacement in driving once around
any closed path is zero, because you end up where you started. 

Velocity =

           (displacement during some time)
divided by
            (time for the displacement)

AND the direction from the start-point to the end-point.


For the guy who drove 15 km to his destination in 10 min, and then
back to his starting point in 5 min, (assuming he returned by way of
the same 15-km route):

         Speed = (15km + 15km) / (10min + 5min)  =  (30/15) (km/min)

                                                                                 =  2 km/min.

        Velocity = (end location - start position) / (15 min)  =  Zero .

An airplane traveling 919 m above the ocean at 505 m/s is to drop a case of twinkies to the victims below. How much time before
Elena L [17]

Answer:

a. 13.7 s b. 6913.5 m

Explanation:

a. How much time before being directly overhead should the box be dropped?

Since the box falls under gravity we use the equation

y = ut - 1/2gt² where y = height of plane above ocean = 919 m, u = initial vertical velocity of airplane = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² and t = time it takes the airplane to be directly overhead.

So,

y = ut - 1/2gt²

y = 0 × t - 1/2gt²

y = 0 - 1/2gt²

y = - 1/2gt²

t² = -2y/g

t = √(-2y/g)

So, t = √(-2 × 919 m/-9.8 m/s²)

t = √(-1838 m/-9.8 m/s²)

t = √(187.551 m²/s²)

t = 13.69 s

t ≅ 13.7 s

So, the box should be dropped 13.69 s before being directly overhead.

b. What is the horizontal distance between the plane and the victims when the box is dropped?

The horizontal distance x between plane and victims, x = speed of plane × time it takes for box to drop = 505 m/s × 13.69 s = 6913.45 m ≅ 6913.5 m

Compare the electric and gravitational force between the electron and the proton in a hydrogen atom. The electric charge of the
zepelin [54]

The gravitational attraction between electron and proton is 10−40 whereas electrostatic force of attraction between a proton and an electron is 10-8.

<h3>What is the gravitational force between electron and proton in a hydrogen atom?</h3>

The gravitational attraction between electron and proton in a hydrogen atom is weaker than the coulomb attraction by a factor of about 10−40 while on the other hand, the electrostatic force of attraction between a proton and an electron in a hydrogen atom is 10- 8 which is 9 times.

The electric charge of the electron and proton are the same i.e. -1.60x10-19C whereas their gravitational force is different due to difference in mass.

So we can conclude that gravitational attraction between electron and proton is 10−40 whereas electrostatic force of attraction between a proton and an electron is 10-8.

What holds the positively charged metal ions together within a metallic bond?
enot [183]

Answer:

The electron cloud

Explanation:

Metallic bonds result from interaction of positively charged metal ions with free valence electrons which now forms an electron cloud around the metal ions. Electrostatic interaction between the metal ions and the electron cloud holds the metal ions together in the metallic bond.
