A. During long jump athlete runs before taking the jump by doing so he provides himself a larger inertia.

<h3>What is inertia?</h3>

Inertia is the reluctance of an object to stop moving once in motion or start moving when it is at rest.

When an athlete runs before taking the jump, he is trying to increase his inertia, that is his reluctance to stop, thereby increasing his forward motion or jump.

Thus, during long jump athlete runs before taking the jump by doing so he provides himself a larger inertia.

A body, with a volume of 2 m3, weighs 40 kN. Determine its weight when
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

8.8 kN

Explanation:

V = 2 m³, W = 40 kN, SG = 1.59

Bouyant force N = 1.59 * 1000 kg/m³ * 9.81 N/kg * 2 m³ = 31.2 kN

So the weight becomes 40 - 31.2 = 8.8 kN

It is measured that 3/4 of a body's volume is submerged in oil of density 800kg/m³
Evgesh-ka [11]

Complete question:

It is measured that 3/4 of a body's volume is submerged in oil of density 800kg/m³. What is the specific gravity of oil?

Answer:

The specific gravity of the oil is 0.8.

Explanation:

Given;

density of the oil, \rho_o = 800 kg/m³

density of water, \rho_w = 1000 kg/m³

The specific gravity of any substance is the ratio of the substance density to the density of water.

Specific gravity of the oil = density of the oil / density of water

Specific gravity of the oil = 800/1000

Specific gravity of the oil = 0.8

Therefore, the specific gravity of the oil is 0.8.

If a soundproof door is almost shut but still leaves a small opening, what wave phenomenon is responsible for someone being able
lana66690 [7]

The phenomenon which is responsible for this effect is called diffraction.

Diffraction is the ability of a wave to propagate when it meets an obstacle or a slit. When the wave encounters the obstacle or the slit, it 'bends' around it and it continues propagate beyond it. A classical example of this phenomenon is when a sound wave propagates through a wall where there is a small aperture (as in the example of this problem)
