How can a high school student have more momentum than a truck

Physics
1 answer:
morpeh [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

When truck is at rest while student is under motion

Explanation:

Since it is obvious that the mass of a truck is more than that of a student, we know that momentum is a product of mass and velocity

P=mv where m represent mass, v is velocity. When the student has more speed than that of truck, he exerts more momentum. The only way a student can exert more momentum is by having more speed while the truck is at rest. In such case, the momentum of truck will be zero while momentum of student will have a value

HELP PLEASE!!
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

C. More of the heat is transferred to the kinetic energy of the copper atoms than to the kinetic energy of the water molecules.

Explanation:

Both equal masses of water and copper were heated at the same temperature. Since copper is a good conductor of heat compared to water, its  absorbs more heat. Which in-turn increases the rate of vibrations of the atoms in the copper mass, thus increasing their kinetic energy.

In the case of water, its molecules displaces one another after being heated to a higher temperature compared to neighboring molecules. So that the heated molecule becomes less dense and floats to the surface of water.

This property of copper makes it to be heated to a higher final temperature than the water.

Derive the dimension of Power ​
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The dimension of power is energy divided by the time or [ML^2T^-3]

Explanation:

Power =\frac {Work Done}{Time}

We can derive Dimensions of Power from both formula.

Power = Force * Velocity

As,

Force = mass * acceleration

Therefore, Dimensions of

Force = [M]*[LT^-2] = [MLT^-2]

Since,

Velocity = \frac{Length}{Time}

Now, Dimension of

Velocity = [LT^-1]

We have Both Dimensions,Now we can derive Dimensions Of Power,

Power = Force * Velocity

Power =[MLT^-2] * [LT^-1]

Power =[ML^2T^-3]
