The distance traveled by the sprinter in meters is determined as 1.88 m.

<h3>Acceleration of the sprinter</h3>

The acceleration of the sprinter is the rate of change of velocity of the sprinter with time.

The acceleration of the sprinter is calculated as follows;

Apply Newton's second law of motion as follows;

F = ma

a = F/m

where;

  • F is the applied force by the sprinter
  • m is mass of the sprinter
  • a is acceleration of the sprinter

a = 693 N / 64 kg

a = 10.83 m/s²

<h3>Distance traveled by the sprinter</h3>

The distance traveled by the sprinter is calculated as follows;

s = ut + ¹/₂at²

where;

  • u is initial velocity = 0

s = ¹/₂at²

where;

  • t is time of motion
  • a is acceleration

s = (0.5)(10.83)(0.59²)

s = 1.88 m

Thus, the distance traveled by the sprinter in meters is determined as 1.88 m.

Unpolarized light with an intensity of 22.4 ????ux passes through a polarizer whose transmission axis is vertically oriented. (a
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a)      I₁ = 11.2 Lux , vertical direction , b)      I₂ = 1.44 Lux

Explanation:

a) A polarized is a system that absorbs light that is not polarized in the direction of its axis, therefore half of the non-polarized light must be absorbed

consequently the above the processed light has half of the incident intensity and the directional of the polarized

          I₁ = I₀ / 2

          I₁ = 22.4 / 2

          I₁ = 11.2 Lux

is polarized in the vertical direction

b) The polarized light falls on a second polarizer, therefore it must comply with the law of Malus

         I₂ = I₁ cos² θ

         I₂ = 11.2 cos² 69

         I₂ = 1.44 Lux

A machine can never be 100% efficient because some work is always lost due to what?
katrin [286]

A machine can never be 100% efficient because some work is always lost due to the lack of materials or equipment that would convert work by 100%. It follows the second law of entropy. The ideal engine is known as Carnot’s engine having a 100% efficiency. So far, no engine has ever gotten to 100%.

How many significant figures does 0.00340 have?
True [87]
Greetings!

"<span>How many significant figures does 0.00340 have?"...

A significant figure is:
-A non zero number
-A zero in between non zero numbers
-Trailing zeros to the right of the decimal point

Therefore, this number has three significant figures:
3,4,0

Hope this helps.
