A swimmer is capable of swimming at 1.4m/s in still water. a. How far downstream will he land if he swims directly across a 180m wide river? b. How long will it take him to reach the other side.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

t = 180 / 1.4 = 129 sec   (time to swim horizontally across river)

S = 129 sec * V     where V is speed of current and S is the distance he will be carried downstream

The problem does not specify V the speed of the river

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

a) the distance(D) showing how dar downstream he will land can be computed as follows:

Assuming the current of the river = 0.2 m/s

[tex]D = \dfrac{180 \ m \times 0.2 \ m/s}{1.4 \ m/s}[/tex]

D = 36 m ÷ 1.4

D = 25.71 m

The required time (t) to reach the other side is:

time (t) = 180 m/ 1.4 m/s

time (t) = 128.57 seconds

Ball X has a mass of 8kg and is moving toward ball Y (which is sitting still) at 2m/s. After they collide, ball X is
sitting still. How fast is ball Y moving after the collision if it has a mass of 4kg?

Answers

Answer:

v = 4 m/s

Explanation:

Given :

Ball X :

Mass, m1 = 8kg ;

Initial Velocity, u1 = 2 m/s

Final velocity, v1 = 0

Ball Y:

Mass, m2 = 4kg ;

Initial Velocity, u2 = 0 m/s

Final velocity, v2 = v

(m1u1 + m2u2) = (m2v2 + m1v1)

(8*2 + 4*0) = (4*v + 4*0)

16 + 0 = 4v + 0

16 = 4v

v = 16 / 4

v = 4 m/s

Answer:

Explanation:

This is the Law of Momentum Conservation which for us looks like this:

[tex][m_xv_x+m_yv_y]_b=[m_xv_x+m_yv_y]_a[/tex] and that should look familiar to you if this is what you are doing in physics. Filling in our particular info:

[(8.0 × 2.0)+ (4.0 × 0.0)] = [(8.0 × 0.0) + (4.0v)] and

16 + 0 = 0 + 4.0v and

16 = 4.0v so

v = 4.0 in the direction of ball X

A constant unbalanced force is applied to an object for a period of time. What will happen to the objects acceleration?

a. It will accelerate in the direction of the net force.
b. It will accelerate opposite the direction net force.
c. There is no acceleration.
d. Not enough information to answer

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The moving object will accelerate as long as a net force is applied. If a net force is not applied, the object will continue to move at a constant speed along the same path in curved spacetime (due to gravity). If the net force continues the velocity of the object will continue to increase until nearly reaching the limit (speed of light).

with respect to air the refractive index of ice is 1.31 and that of rock salt is 1.54 calculate the refractive index of rock salt with respect to ice​

Answers

Answer:

1.17

Explanation:

Given that,

The refractive index of ice wrt air = 1.31

The refractive index of rock salt wrt air = 1.54

We need to find the refractive index of rock salt with respect to ice.

We know that,

refractive index = (speed of light in air or vaccum)/( speed of light in that medium)

So,

The speed of light in ice = c/(1.31)

The speed of light in rock salt = c/(1.54)

So, the refractive index of rock salt with respect to ice​ is :

[tex]\mu=\dfrac{1.54}{1.31}\\\\=1.17[/tex]

So, the required refractive index of rock salt wrt ice is 1.17.

A small block is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 85 N/m. When the spring is compressed 0.30 meters and the released, the 0.50 kg block is launched. What is the final speed of the block?


A)
8.42 m/s

B)
3.91 m/s

C)
7.14 m/s

D)
15.3 m/s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

These Hooke's Law problems are tricky. Here's what we need to know that clears up the problem entirely. The final and also the max speed of the block will be reached at the point where the potential energy of the system is 0. So the equation we need, namely,

[tex]KE+PE=\frac{1}{2}kA^2[/tex] can be simplified down to

[tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}kA^2[/tex] and we solve this first for KE:

[tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}(85)(.30)^2[/tex] and, paying NO attention whatsoever to significant digits here (because if you did the answer you get is not one of the choices)

KE = 3.825 J.  Now we can use that value of kinetic energy and solve for the speed we need:

[tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex] so

[tex]3.825=\frac{1}{2}(.50)v^2[/tex] so

[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{2(3.825)}{.50} }[/tex] so

v = 3.91 m/s

A train starts from rest and leaves Greenburg station with an acceleration of 1.20 meters per second2. How long does it take the train to travel a distance of 500 meters?

Answers

Answer:

Time, t = 28.87 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Acceleration = 1.20 m/s²

Distance = 500 meters

Initial velocity = 0 m/s

To find the time to cover the distance, we would use the second equation of motion;

[tex] S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}[/tex]

Where;

S represents the displacement or height measured in meters.

u represents the initial velocity measured in meters per seconds.

t represents the time measured in seconds.

a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] 500 = 0*t + \frac {1}{2}*(1.2)*t^{2}[/tex]

[tex] 500 = 0 + 0.6*t^{2} [/tex]

[tex] 500 = 0.6t^{2} [/tex]

[tex] t^{2} = \frac {500}{0.6} [/tex]

[tex] t^{2} = 833.33 [/tex]

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

[tex] t = \sqrt{833.33} [/tex]

Time, t = 28.87 seconds

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of the point the bulb should be placed is (2, 0.25)

Explanation:

The given equation of a parabola is presented as follows;

(x - 2)² = 5·(y + 1)

The point the bulb should be placed is the focus of the parabolic mirror to ensure a perfect (straight) beam

The general form of the equation of a parabola is (x - h)² = 4·p·(y - k)

The coordinates of the focus of the parabola for p > 0 f = (h, k + p)

By comparison, h = 2, k = -1, and p = 5/4

∴ The coordinates of the focus of the parabola, f = (2, -1 + 5/4)  = (2, 0.25)

The coordinates of the point the bulb should be placed is at the focus, f =  (2, 0.25).

Now lets say you got a ladder and doubled the ball's height doubling the energy now stored in the ball, when you drop it the ball should bounce much higher after hitting the ground as a result of more energy being released.

Object A has twice the mass of object B. Both objects are moving at the same speed. Which accurately describes how inertia relates to Newton’s second law of motion in this example? Object A has twice the mass of object B. Both objects are moving at the same speed.

A. Object A requires twice the force to stop as Object B.

B. Object A requires one-and-a-half times the force to stop as Object B.

C. Object A requires four times the force to stop as Object B.

Answers

Answer:

A. Object A requires twice the force to stop as Object B.

Explanation:

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

[tex] Acceleration = \frac {Net \; force}{mass} [/tex]

Let's assume the following values;

Mass of object B = 10 kg

Mass of object A = 2 * B = 2 * 10 = 20 kg

Acceleration = 5 m/s²

I. To find the force for B;

[tex] Force = mass * acceleration [/tex]

[tex] Force = 10 * 5 [/tex]

Force B = 50 Newton

II. To find the force for A;

[tex] Force = mass * acceleration [/tex]

[tex] Force = 20 * 5 [/tex]

Force A = 100 Newton

From the calculation, we can deduce that Force A (100 N) is twice or double the value of Force B (50 N).

In conclusion, since object A has twice the mass of object B and both objects are moving at the same speed, object A would require twice the force to stop as Object B.

Answers

Answer:

a. Time = 3.6 seconds

b. Time = 4.4 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 180 m

Speed = 50 m/s

a. To find the time;

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

[tex]Speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Making time the subject of formula, we have;

[tex]Time = \frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex]Time = \frac{180}{50}[/tex]

Time = 3.6 seconds

b. Distance = 220 meters

Speed = 50 m/s

To find the time;

[tex]Time = \frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex]Time = \frac{220}{50}[/tex]

Time = 4.4 seconds

Explanation:

1. The distance the wheelbarrow is tilted, d = 0.5 m

The force used to tilt the wheelbarrow, F = 50 N

The work done, W = F × d

∴ W = 50 N × 0.5 m = 25 J

2. Work done, W = Force × Distance

The applied force, F = 50 N

The distance the sand is moved, d = 5 m

∴ W = 50 N × 5 m = 250 J

3. The work done, W = The load lifted × The height to which the load is lifted

∴ W = 90,000 N × 10 m = 900,000 J

The work done, W = 900,000 J

4. The work output of the skateboard = The work input × Efficiency

Given that the skateboard is an ideal machine, we have;

The work output of the skateboard = The work input = W

W = F × d

F = 15 N, d = 500 m

∴ W = 15 N × 500 m = 7,500 J

The work output of the skateboard = W = 7,500 J.
