Give two examples of common force fields and name the sources of these fields.

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.

Two tugboats are moving a barge. Tugboat A pushes on the barge with a force of 3000n. Tugboat B pulls with a force of 5000 Newto

kenny6666 [7]

The net force on the barge is 8000 N

Explanation:

In order to find the net force on the badge, we have to use the rules of vector addition, since force is a vector quantity.

In this problem, we have two forces:

The force of tugboat A, $F_A = 3000 N$ , acting in a certain direction
The force of tugboat B, $F_B = 5000 N$ , also acting in the same direction

Since the two forces act in the same direction, this means that we can simply add their magnitudes to find the net combined force on the barge. Therefore, we get

$F=F_A+F_B = 3000 + 5000 = 8000 N$

and the direction is the same as the direction of the two forces.

One difference between a hypothesis and a theory is that a hypothesis

artcher [175]

A hypothesis is a tentative statement which is made to try to explain a known phenomenon but whose truth value is still uncertain, whether it is true or no depends on further research. On the other hand, a theory is made up of hypothesis which have been proven to be true so far, a theory should be able to explain future phenomena successfully

Location A receives

Vlad1618 [11]

Location A receives more rainfall than Location B due to the rain shadow effect.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Rain shadow effect is caused due to the presence of mountains.
A rain shadow area is an area of land that has been forced to become dry, devoid of any vegetation growth due to the blockage of precipitation by mountains. These rain shadow areas will have a dry climate.
The other side of the mountain would receive plenty of precipitation and therefore would be flourished with plant growth. These areas will have a cool and wet climate.
In this case, Location A is on the other side of the mountain and so receives more rainfall or precipitation. Meanwhile, Location B is on the rain shadow region and so receives less rainfall.

A floating boat has a weight of 100 N. What is the buoyant force on the boat?

lara31 [8.8K]

If the boat is floating, then it's just sitting there, and not accelerating
up or down. That means the vertical forces on it must be balanced.

So if its weight (acting downward) is 100 newtons, then the buoyant
force on it (acting upward) must also be 100 newtons.
