The correct answer to the question is : C) The horizontal momentum and the vertical momentum are both conserved.
EXPLANATION :
Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand the law of conservation of momentum.
As per the law of conservation of momentum, the total linear as well as angular momentum of an isolated system is always conserved . The law of conservation of energy is a universal fact.
Hence, during any type of collision, the total momentum is always conserved.
Hence, the total horizontal momentum as well as total vertical momentum are always conserved during both elastic as well as inelastic collision.
Answer:
Mistakes, chaos theory.
Explanation:
Weather forecast refers to the application of technology and science in predicting what the condition's of an atmosphere would be at a particular time in a given location. Keyword here is "Predicting."
To accurately "predict" the weather, observation data needs to be collected from weather stations across the world. The data collected from the stations are too complex such that they can only be processed by supercomputers.
It is important to note that supercomputers used to predict weather are liable to make mistakes because the enormous challenge of weather forecasting is more than their capabilities.
In addition, there is a concept known as chaos theory. It explains how very small changes in initial weather conditions can change the final results. No thanks to chaos, meteorologists would not be able to predict weather accurately.
This is the reason why the world still suffers from the incidence of surprise rain, storms and other weather events that could be devastating.
Answer:
B) t = 1.83 [s]
A) y = 16.51 [m]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.
where:
Vf = final velocity = 0
Vo = initial velocity = 18 [m/s]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
t = time [s]
Note: the negative sign in the above equation means that the acceleration of gravity is acting in the opposite direction to the motion.
A) The maximum height is reached when the final velocity of the ball is zero.
0 = 18 - (9.81*t)
9.81*t = 18
t = 18/9.81
t = 1.83 [s], we found the answer for B.
Now using the following equation.
where:
y = elevation [m]
Yo = initial elevation = 0
y = 18*(1.83) - 0.5*9.81*(1.83)²
y = 16.51 [m]
Answer:
4.2 is the answer
Explanation
The image formed in a plane mirror is an equal distance behind the mirror as the object in front of it.
Step 1: the equation to this problem would be: 8.4/2
Step 2: 8.4 ÷ 2 = 4.2
