Jane, looking for Tarzan, is running at top speed (6.0 m/s ) and grabs a vine hanging vertically from a tall tree in the jungle.

(a) The maximum height reached by Jane is 1.8 m.

(b) The length of the vine will affect the time of her motion, which will impact on speed and maximum height attained.

<h3>Maximum height Jane can swing</h3>

apply the principle of conservation of energy;

P.E = K.E

mgh = ¹/₂mv²

h = v²/2g

where;

  • v is speed of jane
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

h = (6²)/(2 x 9.8)

h = 1.84 m

<h3>Time of motion of Jane</h3>

Assuming Jane to be in simple harmonic motion, the time of motion is calculated as;

T =  2π√(L/g)

where;

  • L is the length of the vine

Thus, the length of the vine will affect the time of her motion, which will impact on speed and maximum height attained.

Answer:

B. It is directly proportional to the source charge.

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the total (net) flux of an electric field at points on a closed surface is directly proportional to the electric charge enclosed by that surface.

This ultimately implies that, Gauss's law relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

This electromagnetism law was formulated in 1835 by famous scientists known as Carl Friedrich Gauss.

Mathematically, Gauss's law is given by this formula;

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Where;

ϕ is the electric flux.

Q represents the total charge in an enclosed surface.

ε0 is the electric constant.

Hence, the statement which is true of the electric field at a distance from the source charge is that it is directly proportional to the source charge.

The layer of earth that has the lightest elements is the
Sonja [21]
If I remember correctly (from my studies long time ago) the layers are from the outer to the center:
SiAl : Silicon-Aluminum
SiMa : Silicon-Magnesium (although should be Mg)
NiFe : Nickel-Iron

The SiMa layer should have the lightest elements (Magnesium is lighter than Aluminum)

The vector position of an object is given by r what is the torque acting on the object about the origin when a force f = (−12.5i
attashe74 [19]
Let the vector position of the object in the (x-y) plane be 
\vec{r} = x \hat{i} + y \hat{j}

The applied force is
\vec{f} = -12.5 \hat{i}&#10;

By definition, the applied torque is
\vec{T} = \vec{r} \times \vec{f} = (x\hat{i} + y\hat{j}) \times (-12.5y \hat{i}) = 12.5\hat{k}

Answer: 12.5y \, \hat{k}
