Answer:

160kg m/s

Explanation:

momentum = mass * velocity

here given mass = 80 kg and velocity = 2m/s

so 80 * 2 = 160kg m/s

What is diffraction?

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

D) the bending of a wave as it moves around an obstacle or passes through a narrow opening

Explanation:

Even though light travels in straight line, it will bend around objects if their size is comparative to its wavelength. This phenomenon is called diffraction.

Light will also bend if the light travels from one medium to another medium at an angle, but that is called refraction.

Diffraction occurs in one medium. Refraction occurs when light travels from one medium to another.

jet is flying at 500 mph east relative to the ground. A Cessna is flying at 150 mph 60° north of west relative to the ground. Wh

Greeley [361]

Answer:

C. 590 mph

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph$

Explanation:

Given:

velocity of jet, $v_j=500\ mph$
direction of velocity of jet, east relative to the ground
velocity of Cessna, $v_c=150\ mph$
direction of velocity of Cessna, 60° north of west

Taking the x-axis alignment towards east and hence we have the velocity vector of the jet as reference.

Refer the attached schematic.

So,

$\vec v_j=500\ \hat i\ mph$

$\vec v_c=150\times (\cos120\ \hat i+\sin120\ \hat j)$

$\vec v_c=-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph$

Now the vector of relative velocity of Cessna with respect to jet:

$\vec v_{cj}=\vec v_j-\vec v_c$

$\vec v_{cj}=500\ \hat i-(-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j )$

$\vec v_{cj}=575\ \hat i-75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph$

Now the magnitude of this velocity:

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=\sqrt{(575)^2+(75\sqrt{3} )^2}$

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph$ is the relative velocity of Cessna with respect to the jet.

Two hockey pucks with mass 0.1 kg slide across the ice and collide. Before

RideAnS [48]

The velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

<h3>What is the conservation of momentum?</h3>

The principle of the conservation of the linear momentum states that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

Now given that;

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

(0.1 * 15) - (0.1 * 12) = 0.1* v + (0.1 * 15)

1.5 - 1.2 = 0.1v + 1.5

0.3 - 1.5 = 0.1v

v = -1.2/0.1

v = - 12 m/s

Hence, the velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

Meg goes swimming on a hot afternoon. When she comes out of the pool, her foot senses that the prevement is unbearably hot. Supp

mart [117]

1.Record her observation with the time it was hot.
2. Gather info about the pavement and its surroundings. Find out what it's made of and what its temp. is at different times of the day.
3. Come up with a hypothesis about why it is hot.
4. Design an experiment to test the hypothesis. If she thinks the Sun is responsible (which she should b smart enough to know), keep it covered during the day time and check it's temp.
5. Come up with a conclusion. If her hypothesis is not supported, design a new experiment or gather more info.
