Happy Holidays!
Recall that:
Impulse = Change in Momentum = mass × change in velocity
Since both cars are identical and have the same initial velocity of 60 mph, them breaking to a stop means that they both experience the same change in velocity.
Thus, both of the cars' impulses are equal.
Answer:
the answer is c
Explanation:
it's c because the moon has to be a full moon to be a solar eclipse when the sun moon and earth line up
Answer:
Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
Explanation:
Given:
Frequency of gamma ray = 3 x 10¹⁹ Hz
Wavelength of gamma rays = 1 x 10⁻¹¹ meter
Find:
Speed of gamma rays
Computation:
Velocity = Frequency x wavelength
Speed of gamma rays = Frequency of gamma ray x Wavelength of gamma rays
Speed of gamma rays = [3 x 10¹⁹][1 x 10⁻¹¹]
Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10¹⁹⁻¹¹]
Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10⁸]
Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
<span>Given:
3,500 kilometers
Find:</span>
Years for two continents to collide = ?
<span>Solution:
We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another
are 1 centimeter per year.
So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>
</span>
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
1 km = 100,000 cm
3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm
Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means
350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.
Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents
that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.

To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at
convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.
