Please explain.
_____ ft/s

6400
2000
80.
44

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

80 ft/s

Explanation:

Use III equation of motion

V^2 = U^2 + 2g h

Here, U = 0, g = 32 ft/s^2, h = 100 ft

V^2 = 0 + 2 × 32 ×100

V^2 = 6400

V = 80 ft/s

DO GOOD IN SCHOOL
if u dont ull(whisper) regret it.

The statement is most likely correct about the average temperatures in San Diego, California as compared to Savannah, Georgia is;

Option D: It is lower in San Diego because of the cool ocean currents from the north.

From the map, we see two locations namely;

San diego and Savannah.

Now, upon careful observations of the current direction at San Diego , we see that the current is moving from the north towards the equator and as such we till term it as cool ocean currents.

However, in Savannah, the direction of the currents is away from the equator and as such we will call it warm currents.

In conclusion, since cool currents are coming to San Diego, it will have a lower temperature than at Savannah.

a swimmer can swim in still water at a speed of 9.50 m/s. he intends to swim directly across the river that has a downstream current of 3.75 m/s. what is his velocity relative to the bank?

Answers

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Still-water speed  = 9.5 m/s
River speed = 3.75 m/s down stream.

The velocity of the swimmer relative to the bank is the vector sum of his still-water speed and the speed of the river.

The velocity relative to the bank is
V = √(9.5² + 3.75²) = 10.21 m/s

The downstream angle is
θ = tan⁻¹ 3.75/9.5 = 21.5°

Answer:  10.2 m/s at 21.5° downstream.

The relative velocity of swimmer to the bank is [tex]\boxed{10.21\text{ m/s}}[/tex] and [tex]\boxed{21.54^\circ}[/tex] downstream.

Further Explanation:

The swimmer swims across the river from one end to the other. The river is flowing downstream.

The swimmer will cross the river with some relative velocity.

Given:

The velocity of swimmer is [tex]9.50\text{ m/s}[/tex].

The velocity of river is [tex]3.75\text{ m/s}[/tex] downstream.

Concept:

Consider the direction of velocity of swimmer in positive x-direction.

The velocity of swimmer in vector form:

[tex]V_s=9.50\hat i[/tex]

Consider the direction of downstream current of river in negative y-direction.

The velocity of downstream current in vector form:

[tex]V_r=- 3.75\hat j[/tex]  

The relative velocity of swimmer to the bank is the resultant of two vectors in x and y direction.

Magnitude of relative velocity:

[tex]{V_{sr}}=\sqrt{V_r^2+V_s^2}[/tex]  

Substitute [tex]9.50\text{ m/s}[/tex] for [tex]V_s[/tex] and [tex]3.75\text{ m/s}[/tex] for [tex]V_r[/tex] in above equation.

[tex]\begin{aligned}{V_{sr}}&=\sqrt{3.75^2+9.50^2}\text{ m/s}\\&=10.21\text{ m/s}\end{aligned}[/tex]

The magnitude of relative velocity of swimmer is [tex]10.21\text{ m/s}[/tex] .  

The direction of relative velocity:

[tex]\theta={\tan^{-1}}\left({\dfrac{{{V_r}}}{{{V_s}}}}\right)[/tex]  

Substitute [tex]9.50\text{ m/s}[/tex] for [tex]V_s[/tex] and [tex]-3.75\text{ m/s}[/tex] for [tex]V_r[/tex] in above equation.

[tex]\begin{aligned}\theta&={\tan^{-1}}\left({\dfrac{{{-3.75}}}{{{9.50}}}}\right)\\&=21.54^\circ\end{aligned}[/tex]

The direction of relative velocity is [tex]21.54^\circ[/tex] downstream.

Thus, the relative velocity of swimmer to the bank is [tex]\boxed{10.21\text{ m/s}}[/tex] and [tex]\boxed{21.54^\circ}[/tex] downstream.

Suppose a car is traveling at +25.0 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light turn red. After 0.340 s has elapsed (the reaction time), the driver applies the brakes, and the car decelerates at 7.00 m/s2.

Answers

First, we will get the distance traveled before the driver applied the brakes.
distance = velocity * time
distance = 25*0.34 = 8.5 m

Now, we will calculated the distance that the car traveled after the driver applied the brakes. To do this, we will use the equation of motion:
vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d where:
vf = zero, vi = 25 m/s and a = -7 m/s^2
Note: The negative sign is only to show deceleration 
d =  1/2*(625) /(7) = 44.6428 m

The total stopping distance = 8.5 + 44.6428 = 53.1428 m

Two objects are dropped from a bridge an interval of 1.0s apart. Air resistance is negligible. During the time that both objects continue to fall, their separation increases.

Can someone explain why it increases, instead of staying constant?

Answers

Their separation would be constant if they were both falling at the same speed. But they're not. A falling object falls 9.8 m/s faster every second than it fell in the previous second.

So the one that dropped first ... and had an extra second to fall ... is always falling faster than the one that dropped later. So it keeps getting farther ahead.

If the two objects are dropped at 1.0 s time interval, their velocity will increase as they descend which will cause their separation distance to increase because velocity is directly proportional to displacement.

The rate at which each object falls is influenced by their respective weights. If air resistance is negligible, gravity will continue to pull each object until it hits the ground.

The influence of gravity will cause the following:

The speed of each object will increase gradually until it hits the ground, and each object will have maximum velocity before it hits the ground. This shows that velocity of each object increases as it descends.Velocity is directly proportional to displacement, as the velocity of each object increases, the distance between them will also increase.

Thus, if the two objects are dropped at 1.0 s time interval, their velocity will increase as they descend which will cause their separation distance to increase because velocity is directly proportional to displacement.

Chalk is an ionic compound. Which is a property of all ionic compounds that makes chalk particularly useful for writing on a chalkboard?

Answers

The Properties that make chalk particularly useful for writing are hardness and brittleness.

Answer:

Hardness and brittleness

Explanation:

Ionic substances form crystal lattices which allow the compounds to be hard because of the strong attractions between positive and negative ions in the lattice. When pressure is applied to the compound like chalk , it may force ions of the same charge together ( i.e. positive to positive). This is called electrostatic repulsion which is able to break the crystal lattice allowing one to write on the chalkboard.

What does the phrase rise over run refer to when defining slope

Answers

I just learned this. Rise over run is also rise divided by run.  The rise refers to the y axis (since y is vertical so it's rising), and run refers to the x axis (Since x is horizontal so it's running straight).  So in other words, rise/run = y/x.  To calculate the slope, you do y/x.  For example, if you have y=3 and x=8, then your slope is 3/8.  To plot that on a graph, you start from your point, and go up three, and across 8.  Hope this helps.

Answer: B.  gravitation

Explanation:

Nebula is a stellar nursery. It is composed of dust and gases. This molecular cloud condenses under its own weight and forms a core which spins and gathers more mass due to gravity. This causes temperature and pressure to rise which kicks in the nuclear fusion reaction and a star is said to be born.

Thus, gravitation is responsible for formation of star.

Calculate the density if the mass of a solid material is measured as 15.00 grams and its volume is measured as 5.0 cm3? round off your answer to the proper number of significant figures

Answers

15.00 g / 5.0 cm³ = (15.00 ÷ 5.0) g / cm³ = 3.0 g / cm³ .
_____________________________________________________

Answer:

3.0 gm/cm³

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of solid material (m) = 15.00 grams

volume of the material (v) = 5.0 cm³

We know that density is

[tex]= \frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

Thus the density of the material is

[tex]= \frac{m}{v}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{15.00}{5.0}[/tex]

[tex]= 3.0[/tex]

Thus the density is 3.0 gm/cm³.

compare and contrast potential and kinetic energy

Answers

Kinetic Energy is moving energy. And potential energy is air G that has the potential to be movie or not moving at all
Final answer:

Potential energy is stored energy due to an object's position or state, while kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion. They differ in their state, with potential energy being at rest and kinetic energy being in action. However, both can be transformed into each other.

Explanation:

Potential energy and kinetic energy are both forms of mechanical energy, but they are different in many ways. Potential energy is stored energy that an object has due to its position or state, like a rock perched at the top of a hill has gravitational potential energy. It has the potential to convert into kinetic energy but for now, it remains at rest.

On the other hand, kinetic energy is the energy of motion. An object in motion has kinetic energy— for example, a moving car or a flowing river has kinetic energy. Unlike potential energy, it is already in action. So the key difference is that potential energy is stored, while kinetic energy is in motion.

However, they are similar in that they both can be transformed into each other. For instance, when that rock on the hill begins to roll downhill, its potential energy is converting into kinetic energy.

How could a person easily tell which envelope contained four sheets of paper and which contained five sheets without opening the envelopes what assumption did you make in arriving at your answers

Answers

You can easily tell by shaking the envelope by making the sheets inside it overlap then flip it around then start feeling then you can feel 4 sheets
Final answer:

You could tell the difference between two envelopes containing 4 and 5 sheets of paper by comparing their weights. An envelope with 5 sheets should feel heavier than the one with 4 sheets, assuming that all materials involved are identical.

Explanation:

One way to tell the difference between two envelopes containing 4 and 5 sheets of paper without opening them would be to use weight as a distinguishing factor. Given that the weight of paper is constant, one sheet of paper would add a perceivable amount of weight to an envelope. Therefore, the envelope with 5 sheets should be heavier than the envelope containing 4 sheets. The assumption here is that both the envelopes and the sheets of paper are identical in every other aspect including size, material, weight, etc.

In theory, if you were to hold each envelope in either hand, the difference in weight should be detectable. It's a common practice in mailrooms where workers are adept at figuring out the number of papers inside envelopes just by weight comparison. This method, however, requires a certain level of sensitivity and practice. The real application of this method can vary based on multiple factors such as individual's sensitivity to weight change, uniformity in the weight of the paper etc.
