Find the Momentum





1. A car takes 5 hours to go 800 miles east what is the speed of the car? 

2.  Convert the speed of the car from question one into meters per second and find the velocity. 

3. If the car when empty has a mass of 1500kg what would the momentum of the car be if it were traveling at the speed in the problems above. 

4 If the car had the following passengers ,  Jerry 113 kg , June 108 kg ,  Jack 73kg, and a whale  named Pepper with the mass of 2000kg . what would be the cars's momentum?

Trains Collide




Evan is conducting a train going east at 26 meters per second with a mass of 7200 kg. Corey is conducting a train going west at 44 m/s and a mass of 5000 kg.
1 What is the momentum of the trains before they collide?
2. What is the momentum of the trains at the time of the collision?
3. What should happen with Evan's train when it hits Corey's Train?

On the menu

Fred wants to open a new restaurant that serves only non-gmo food.  He want to go even further and make sure none of the food had been subject to artificial selection. What could he have on his menu?

Overhearing

Bill said, "Before the use of vectors in artificial selection reliance for changing alleles was done through mutagenesis" Sue said, "Yes, I agree with you Bill, getting desired traits was done that way, however now the most common way is through the use of vectors and plasmids." Fred then chimed in asking, "What was used before either of those techniques were discovered?" 


Do you know what Bill and Sue are talking about? 
What is the answer to Fred's question?
