Momentum before the hit:
p = mv = 0.01 * 300 + 1 * 0 

Momentum after the hit:
p = 0.01 * 150 + 1 * v

Momentum is conserved:
0.01 * 300 = 0.01 * 150 + v 
3 = 1.5 + v
v = 1.5

The velocity of the block after the collision is 1.5 m/s.

A toy cannon launches a 46-g golf ball straight up into the air with a kinetic energy of 6.8 J. What must the
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 17 m/s

Explanation :

Formula used :

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where,

K.E = kinetic energy = 6.8 J

m = mass of object = 46 g = 0.046 kg    (1 kg = 1000 g)

v = velocity

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

6.8J=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.046kg\times v^2

6.8kg.m^2/s^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.046kg\times v^2

v=17.19m/s\approx 17m/s

Therefore, the ball's velocity be as it leaves the cannon is, 17 m/s

Light travels at the speed of approximately 3.0 × 108 meters per second. Find the time in minutes required for light to travel f
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

  t = 8.33 minutes

Explanation:

given,

Speed of Light, v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

distance between sun to Earth = 1.5 x 10¹¹ m

time taken to reach earth = ?

we know,

Distance = speed x time

t = \dfrac{d}{s}

t = \dfrac{1.5\times 10^{11}}{3\times 10^8}

      t = 500 s

1 min = 60 s

now, t = \dfrac{500}{60}\ minutes

          t = 8.33 minutes

time taken by the light to reach earth is equal to 8.33 minutes.

Sometimes a new experimental result may seem to go against a well-established scientific theory. Which statement BEST describes
MrMuchimi
The best thing to do in this case is to redo the experiment and re record the info, it has to be precise and accurate so you also have to check if your procedure is correct. If the results are both accurate and precise then you have to report your findings to the committee of that specific field. <span />
