A yellow train of mass 100 kg is moving at 8 m/s toward an orange train of mass 200 kg traveling in the opposite direction on th

Serhud [2]

The initial momentum of the yellow and the orange train is 1000kgm/s.

Momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of any object.

Momentum is denoted by P.

Momentum P = mv , where m = mass and v = velocity.

<h3>Given:</h3>

Mass of the orange train = 200kg

Velocity of the orange train = 1m/s

So, the momentum of the orange train will be,

∴ P = mv

P = 200 x 1

P = 200 kgm/s

∴ The initial momentum of the orange train is 200kgm/s.

Mass of the yellow train = 100kg

Velocity of the yellow train = 8m/s

So, the momentum of the yellow train will be,

∴ P = mv

P = 100 x 8

P = 800 kgm/s

∴ The initial momentum of the yellow train is 800kgm/s.

Therefore, the initial momentum of the yellow and the orange train is 1000kgm/s.

The de Broglie wave is produced only by sub atomic particle and photon. O True O False

Alina [70]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Matter can be in the form of a particle or a wave. This is known as the dual nature of matter. This concept was proposed by Louis de Broglie and was named after him. This phenomenon has been observed for all the elementary particles.

The de Broglie wavelength is given by

$\lambda=\frac{h}{p}=\frac{h}{mv}$

Where

h = Planck's constant

p = Particles momentum

m = Mass of particle

v = Velocity of particle

A girl playing tug-of-war with her dog pulls the dog a distance of 8.0m by exerting a force at an angle of 18° with the horizont

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

25 N

Explanation:

Work is a product of force and perpendicular distance moved.

W=Fd where F is force exerted and d is perpendicular distance.

However, for this case, the distance is inclined hence resolving it to perpendicular so that it be along x-axis we have distance as $dcos\theta$

Therefore, $W=Fdcos\theta$

Making F the subject of the formula then

$F=\frac {W}{dcos\theta}$ where $\theta$ is the angle of inclination. Substituting 190 J for W then 18 degrees for $\theta$ and 8 m for d then

$F=\frac {190}{8cos18^{\circ}}\approx 25N$

Match the measurements to the correct number of significant figures.

Shalnov [3]

To calculate the number of sig figs
1. Count ALL nonzero numbers
2. If the zero is between 2 numbers, count it
3. If in a decimal the zero is at the end, count it
4. In a decimal all the zeros before the first nonzero number are placeholders and don't count them
5. In a number greater than zero all zeros AFTER the last nonzero number are placeholders and don't count them.

A - 5
B - 2
C - 3
D - 1
E - 4
