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

Which is an example of electrical energy being converted or changed into light energy?
Lera25 [3.4K]
When I see the word "which" at the beginning of your question,
I just KNOW that there's a list of choices printed right there
next to he part that you copied, and for some mysterious
reason, you decided not to let us see the choices.

Any flashlight, light bulb, laser, or spark ... like lightning ...
converts some electrical energy into some light energy.
