Answer:

5.8\; {\rm kg\cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.

Explanation:

If the mass of an object is m and the velocity of that object is v, the linear momentum of that object would be m\, v.

Assume that the initial velocity of the mass is positive (6.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}.) However, the direction of the velocity is reversed after the impact. Thus, the sign of the new velocity of the object would be negative- the opposite of that of the initial velocity. The new velocity would be (-4.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}).

Thus, the change in the velocity of the mass would be:

\begin{aligned}& (\text{Change in Velocity}) \\ =\; & (\text{Final Velocity}) - (\text{Initial Velocity}) \\ =\; & (-4.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (6.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ =\; & (-10\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1})\end{aligned}.

The change in the linear momentum of the mass would be:

\begin{aligned} & \text{change in momentum} \\ =\; & (\text{mass}) \times (\text{change in velocity}) \\ =\; & 0.58\; {\rm kg} \times (-10\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\  =\; & (-5.8\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}})\end{aligned}.

Thus, the magnitude of the change of the linear momentum would be 5.8\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.

a group of students working in a high school chemistry lab believe they have discovered a new element! how exciting! upon furthe
maw [93]

Explanation:

From the experiment:

      Number of protons  = 74

      Number of neutrons  = 110

Number of protons in an element is the atomic number of the element. It is used to locate and position and element on the periodic table.

For a neutral or uncharged atom, the number of protons is the same as the number of electrons.

The element whose number of protons or atomic number if 74 is Tungsten

  Mass number  = 74 + 110  = 184g/mol

A frequently quoted rule of thumb in aircraft design is that wings should produce about 1000 N of lift per square meter of wing.
svetlana [45]

Answer:

    v₂ = 63.62 m / s

Explanation:

For this exercise in fluid mechanics we will use Bernoulli's equation

         P₁ + ρ g v₁² +  ρ g y₁ = P₂ +  ρ g v₂² +  ρ g y₂

where the subscript 1 refers to the inside of the wing and the subscript 2 to the top of the wing.

We will assume that the distance between the two parts is small, so y₁ = y₂

        P₁-P₂ =  ρ g (v₂² - v₁²)

pressure is defined by

        P = F / A

we substitute

        ΔF / A =  ρ g (v₂² - v₁²)

         v₂² = \frac{\Delta F}{A \ \rho  \ g} + v_1^2

suppose that the area of ​​the wing is A = 1 m²

we substitute

         v₂² = \frac{1000}{1 \ 1.29 \ 9.8} + 63^2

         v₂² = 79.10 + 3969

         v₂ = √4048.1

         v₂ = 63.62 m / s
