Answer:

read this it might help some

When a moving object collides with a stationary object of identical mass, the stationary object encounters the greater collision force. When a moving object collides with a stationary object of identical mass, the stationary object encounters the greater momentum change.

slega [8]

Answer:

I = sum m *r^2    where m represents the (small) individual masses and r is the distance of that mass from center of rotation

Note:  sum m = M

For the hoop given all masses are at a distance RRR from the center of rotation

I = MMM * RRR^2

The pilot of an airplane traveling 45 m/s wants to drop supplies to flood victims isolated on a patch of land 160 m below. The s
Sidana [21]

Answer:

<h2>254.56 m</h2>

Explanation:

       A object dropped from a plane from a certain height will follow a parabolic trajectory because it has a horizontal velocity equal to plane's velocity.

       So, if supplies are to be dropped from a plane from a height of 160 m, let us calculate the time it takes to reach the ground.

       H=\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}\\160=\frac{1}{2}\times10\times t^{2}\\t=\sqrt{32}=4\sqrt{2}\text{ }sec

       So, in this time, the supply moves a horizontal distance of (4\sqrt{2}\text{ }sec)\times(45\text{ }\frac{m}{sec})=180\sqrt{2}\text{ }m=254.56\text{ }m.

∴ The supply must be dropped when the plane is 255 m away.

Where is an object's center of gravity?
bonufazy [111]

The center of gravity (CG) location is the average location of all the weights of an object. The center of gravity is the balance point of an object, also expressed as the point where all the mass appears to be located.

Interpolation is more accurate than extrapolation because
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

This is because we have a greater likelihood of obtaining a valid estimate. When we use extrapolation, we are making the assumption that our observed trend continues for values of x outside the range we used to form our model.
