Answer:

179.47m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and u2 are the initial velocities

v is the final velocity

Substitute

7750(179)+72(230) = (7750+72)v

1,387,250+16560 = 7822v

1,403,810 = 7822v

v = 1,403,810/7822

v= 179.47m/s

Hence the final velocity of the probe is 179.47m/s

How high would the level be in a gasoline barometer at normal atmospheric pressure?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

h = 13.06 m

Explanation:

Given:

- Specific gravity of gasoline S.G = 0.739

- Density of water p_w = 997 kg/m^3

- The atmosphere pressure P_o = 101.325 KPa

- The change in height of the liquid is h m

Find:

How high would the level be in a gasoline barometer at normal atmospheric pressure?

Solution:

- When we consider a barometer setup. We dip the open mouth of an inverted test tube into a pool of fluid. Due to the pressure acting on the free surface of the pool, the fluid starts to rise into the test-tube to a height h.

- The relation with the pressure acting on the free surface and the height to which the fluid travels depends on the density of the fluid and gravitational acceleration as follows:

                                         P = S.G*p_w*g*h

Where,                              h = P / S.G*p_w*g

- Input the values given:

                                         h = 101.325 KPa / 0.739*9.81*997

                                         h = 13.06 m

- Hence, the gasoline will rise up to the height of 13.06 m under normal atmospheric conditions at sea level.

What are some important factors to consider when choosing a warm-up before your workout?
TEA [102]

<u>Answer:</u>

Prior to exercise, a proper warm-up of 10-15 minutes is extremely important to avoid injuries.

  1. Don't go too hard in the beginning and boost your activity level slowly. A good indication of a proper warm-up is that you feel sweat on your body parts.
  2. Don't overstretch right in the beginning as it can cause sore in your muscles and joints or stress fractures.
  3. Take a break if you feel sick or fatigues and use other drinks along with water to replace electrolytes and body fluids.

Which quantities define momentum?
grigory [225]

Answer:

A. How much matter an object has, plus the magnitude and direction  of its motion

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of mass by velocity, in the international system of measurements (SI) momentum has the following Units [kg*m/s].

P = m*v

where:

P = momentum Lineal [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

Therefore the answer is A) How much matter an object has, plus the magnitude and direction  of its motion

How much force (in Newtons) acts on a 1700 kg car going around a
Daniel [21]

Answer:

b) 4781 N

Explanation:

Because there is a redius do this question is talking about the acceleration force which= mv^2/r

so a=15^2/80=2.8125 m^2/s

so the force will be = m.a

F =1700×2.8125=4781.25 N

Corrosive substances are rarely harmful to human skin.
Shtirlitz [24]

Corrosive substances are rarely harmful to human skin.   This statement is <em>False.</em>  Corrosive substances are ALMOST ALWAYS harmful to the skin.

Most problems addressed by the technological design process have only one solution.  This statement is also <em>False.</em>  There is more than one way to skin a cat.
