A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 50 times as massive and falling at 8.4 m/s, a typical raindrop speed. How fast

kenny6666 [7]

The final velocity after the collision is 8.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, if we consider the system to be isolated (=no external unbalanced forces), the total momentum of the raindrop+mosquito must be conserved before and after the collision.

If the collision is perfectly inelastic, moreover, the raindrop and the mosquito stick together and travel at the same velocity v after the collision.

Mathematically:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$

where:

$m_1$ is the mass of the first mosquito

$u_1 = 0$ is the initial velocity of the mosquito

$m_2 = 50 m_1$ is the mass of the raindrop

$u_2 = 8.4 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the raindrop

$v$ is the final combined velocity of the raindrop+mosquito

Re-arranging the equation and substituting, we find:

$m_1 u_1 + 50 m_1 u_2 = (m_1 + 50 m_1) v\\50 m_1 u_2 = 51 m_1 v\\50 u_2 = 51 v\\v=\frac{50}{51}u_2 = \frac{50}{51}(8.4)=8.2 m/s$

FIRST ANSWER GET'S BRAINLIEST!!!!

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Earth's water is always in movement, and the natural water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle, describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. Water is always changing states between liquid, vapor, and ice, with these processes happening in the blink of an eye and over millions of years.

Hope this helped!! :))

Answer: a.

b.

c.

Explanation:

Scientific notation is defined as the representation of expressing the numbers that are too big or too small and are represented in the decimal form with one digit before the decimal point times 10 raise to the power.

For example : 5000 is written as

a. 10130 Pa to 2 decimal place is written as

b. to 1 decimal place is written as

c. to 3 decimal places is written as

In which phase of mitosis are chromosome first seen as a result of chromatin coiling?

Kruka [31]

<span>Mitosis is a a means for cells to split and produce exact copies of themselves. The process produces two identical copies of the original cell and occurs throughout the human body. Mitosis is divided up into four main phases known as prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The chromosomes first become visible in early prophase.</span>

How many significant digits should the answer to the following problem have? (2.49303 g) * (2.59 g) / (7.492 g) =

Feliz [49]

The number of significant digits to the answer of the following problem is four.

<h3>What are the significant digits?</h3>

The number of digits rounded to the approximate integer values are called the significant digits.

The following problem is

(2.49303 g) * (2.59 g) / (7.492 g) =

On solving we get

= 0.86184566204

The answer is approximated to 0.86185

Thus, the significant digits must be four.
