how fast should a 250g mouse run so that it can have the same momentum as a 3ton (1metric ton= 1000kg 1g=0.001kg) can a mouse re

Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

You haven't mentioned the speed of the 3-ton mouse.

Let's say that Jabba the Mouse is running as fast as he can ...
1 centimeter per day = 1 meter / 8,640,000 seconds.

Then his momentum is  (3,000 kg-m/8,640,000 sec) = 3.472 x 10⁻⁴ kg-m/sec

For Jerry the normal-size mouse to have the same momentum,

         (0.25 kg) x (speed) = 3.472 x 10⁻⁴ kg-m/sec

Divide each side by  (0.25 kg):  Speed = 3.472 x 10⁻⁴ / 0.25 m/s

                                                             =  1.388 x 10⁻³ m/s

                                                             =  1.388 millimeter per second.

A normal mouse can definitely attain this speed yes.
Even faster if he is startled or scared, or pursuing a girl mouse.

The weight of a luggage is 69.3 N on the moon. Find its weight on the Earth.​
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

weight on moon = 1/6* weight on earth

69.3=1/6*weight on earth

weight on earth = 69.3*6

weight on earth = 415.8 N

The atomic number of a nucleus decreases during which nuclear reactions?
Goryan [66]
A related type of beta decay actually decreases the atomic number of the nucleus when a proton becomes a neutron. Due to charge conservation, this type of beta decay involves the release of a charged particle called a “positron” that looks and acts like an electron but has a positive charge.

A train has a length of 81.1 m and starts from rest with a constant acceleration at time t = 0 s. At this instant, a car just re
arlik [135]

Answer: a) vcar= 7 m/s ; b) a train= 0.65 m/s^2

Explanation: By using the kinematic equation for the car and the train we can determine the above values of the car velocity and the acceletarion of the train, respectively.

We have for the car

distance = v car* t, considering the length of train (81.1 m) travel by the car during the first 11.6 s

the v car =  distance/time= 81.1 m/11.6s= 7 m/s

In order to calculate the acceleration we have to use the kinematic equation for the train from the rest

distance train = (a* t^2)/2

distance train : distance travel by the car at constant speed

so distance train= (vcar*36.35)m=421 m

the a traiin= (2* 421 m)/(36s)^2=0.65 m/s^2
