Pls answer asap four identical lab carts each have a mass of 200 kg. different masses are added to the carts and the velocities are measured. all carts move to the right. which cart has the greatest momentum? cart a cart b cart c cart d

Cart A

Explanation:

Momentum can be computed by finding the product of mass and velocity. To solve this, you can use the formula below to find the greatest momentum:

p = mv

where:

p = momentum (kgm/s)       m = mass (kg)         v = velocity (m/s)

Because carts are moving along with the weights, we need to consider the whole system. This means that you need to add in the masses and the mass of the cart.

Cart A:

m = 200kg + 0 kg = 200 kg

v = 4.8 m/s

p = 200kg x 4.8 m/s = 960 kg-m/s

Cart B:

m = 200kg + 20 kg = 220 kg

v = 4.0 m/s

p = 220kg x 4.0 m/s = 880 kg-m/s

Cart C:

m = 200kg + 40 kg = 240 kg

v = 3.8 m/s

p = 240kg x 3.8 m/s = 912 kg-m/s

Cart D:

m = 200kg + 60 kg = 260 kg

v = 3.5 m/s

p = 260kg x 3.5 m/s = 910 kg-m/s

As you can see, Cart A has the greatest momentum.

from 1609, galileo galilei used the recently invented telescope to observe the sun, moon and planets. he saw the mountains and craters of the moon, and for the first time revealed the planets to be worlds in their own right. galileo also provided strong observational evidence that planets orbited the sun.

his discoveries about the moon, jupiter's moons, venus, and sunspots supported the idea that the sun - not the earth - was the center of the universe, as was commonly believed at the time.galileo turned his gaze toward venus, the brightest celestial object in the sky - other than the sun and the moon.

potential energy is directly proportional to height.

more height = more potential energy.

greatest increase in height = greatest increase in potential energy

where are the points with the greatest increase in height ?

has to be c-e or d-e .
