A baseball is thrown vertically upward and feels no air resistance. As it is rising its momentum is not conserved, but its mechanical energy is conserved.

Answer from: aidenbender06

Answering the question, a baseball is thrown vertically upward and feels no air resistance. As it is rising, its momentum is not conserved, but its mechanical energy is conserved. This implies the correct answer is D

Since there are no external forces that acted on the baseball, then its total mechanical energy is conserved and its momentum is not conserved. The momentum of the baseball is also not conserved for the same reason, that is, there are no external forces that acted on it.

Further Explanation

Mechanical energy is the energy that an object acquired due to its movement or due to its position. This also implies that an object has acquired mechanical energy when it possesses the ability to do work due to its movement or position.

Mechanical energy can be of two forms, which are kinetic or potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy an object acquired due to its movement and potential energy is the energy that is stored due to the position of the object.

Conservation of momentum and the newton’s third of law of motion has the same explanations. Conservation of momentum always applies to the collision between objects. When two bodies collide with each other, the forces of the two bodies will be equal and opposite at the same time

Good moring let me you on this question the answer the electric force have a good day ; )

Answer from: Quest

Because there is no air in the jar, the vibrations can not travel through the air and create sound. (that's why there is no sound in space, there is no air)

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)

Isobars are lines of constant or equal pressure on a weather map. they can be used to find areas of low or high pressure over a broad area, and they can tell us how intense the system may be. on weather maps, you may have noticed areas that have a large l or h over a region with lines circling around them. the l stands for low pressure and h stands for high pressure. the lines circling them are isobars. check out the pressure system and isobars over georgia and florida. what is the present weather in this area ? a) clear and sunny b) cold and cloudy c) changing weather d) lots of precipitation
