If your front lawn is 18.0 feet wide and 20.0 feet long, and each square foot of lawn accumulates 1050 new snowflakes every minute, how much snow, in kilograms, accumulates on your lawn per hour? assume an average snowflake has a mass of 2.10 mg.

47628 kg/hr

Explanation:

Total area = 18*20 =360 ft^(2)

no .of snowflakes per minute = 1050*360 =378000

mass of snowflakes per minute = 378000*2.1*10^(-3) =793.8 kg/min

mass accumulated per hour = 793.8kg/min * 60min/hr =47628 kg/hr

the chart show the masses and velocities of two colliding objects that stick together after a collision.

according to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the object after the collision is  

answer

1,500

kg • m/s.

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
