Answer:

The change in momentum = -20000 kg m/s.

Explanation:

Mass m = 1000 kg

speed v₁ = 20 m/s

speed v₂ = 0 m/s

We know that,

The change in momentum

ΔP = m (Δv)

ΔP = m (v₂ - v₁)

     = 1000 (0 - 20)

     = 1000 (-20)

     = -20000 kg m/s

Thus, the change in momentum = -20000 kg m/s.

Note: negative sign indicates that the velocity is reducing when it hits the barrier.

Estimate the total number of bacteria and other prokaryotes in the biosphere of the earth. (assume the bacteria are found to a d
Fofino [41]
Since the Earth is almost spherical in shape, we are actually to find first the volume of the spherical segment at a depth of 1,000 m. The radius of the Earth is 6,371,000 meters. The volume of a spherical segment is:

V = 1/3*πh²(3r - h)
Substituting the values and making sure the units is in mm,
V = 1/3*π(1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)²[3(6,371,000 m * 1000 mm/1 m) - (1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)]
V = 2×10²² mm³

Thus, the total amount of bacteria is:

2×10²² mm³ * 100 bacteria/1 mm³ = 2×10²⁴ bacteria

Help !!!! Estimate the number of breaths taken by a person during 44 years?
Lisa [10]
44 x 12. I got the 12 from the total of 12 months in a year.


44 > 40

x
12 > 10
----------
The way my teacher taught me how to estimate is look at the neighbor to 44 and 12. The only time 44 can become 50, is when the neighbor is 5 or up. Same thing for 12. Now, multiply 40 and 10.

40 x 10 = 400.

Therefore, your estimate is 400.

The real answer is 520 breaths.

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The question is wrong Since if you apply Force on 0.0m²It would mean That the pressure exerted=F/A=F/0

An since we can't divide a number by 0, the question is wrong
