Answer:
Explanation:
given,
weight of swimmer = 510 N
length of ledge, L = 1.75 m
vertical height of the cliff, h = 9 m
speed of the swimmer = ?
horizontal velocity of the swimmer should be that much it can cross the wedge.
distance = speed x time
d = v_x × t
1.75 = v_x × t ........(1)
now,time taken by the swimmer to cover 9 m
initial vertical velocity of the swimmer is zero.
using equation of motion for time calculation
t² = 1.938
t = 1.39 s
same time will be taken to cover horizontal distance.
now, from equation 1
1.75 = v_x × 1.39
horizontal speed of the swimmer is equal to 1.26 m/s
Answer:False
Explanation:
Work is being done on a body when it causes displacement of body on the application of force
When we pull the door by a force it causes zero displacements of the door. So we can say that work done on it is zero.
Thus the above-given statement is false
Answer:
remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four.
Explanation:
A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.
It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).
The luminosity of a star refers to the total amount of light radiated by the star per second and it is measured in watts (w).
The apparent brightness of a star is a measure of the rate at which radiated energy from a star reaches an observer on Earth per square meter per second.
The apparent brightness of a star is measured in watts per square meter.
If the distance between us (humans) and a star is doubled, with everything else remaining the same, the luminosity remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four (4).
Some of the examples of stars are;
- Canopus.
- Sun (closest to the Earth)
- Betelgeuse.
- Antares.
- Vega.
That's what stars do all the time.
For example, in the sun (and MOST other stars), deep down in the center
of the sun's core, two atoms of Hydrogen get squashed together so hard
that they blend into one atom of Helium AND release some energy.
That's where the sun's energy all comes from. It's called "nuclear fusion".
It needs tremendous temperature and pressure to happen. We know how
to do it, but we can't control it. So far, the only thing we've ever been able
to use it for is Hydrogen bombs.
There are 92 elements on the Periodic Table that are found in nature,
plus another 20 or so that have been made in the laboratory, but only
a few atoms of them.
Answer:
2.5 m/s
Explanation:
The speed of the animal is given by the ratio between the distance travelled by the animal and the time elapsed:
where d is the distance travelled and t the time elapsed. Note that this quantity is also equal to the slope of the curve.
In the time interval 0-20 s, we have
d = 50 m - 0 m = 50 m
t = 20 s - 0 s = 20 s
So, the speed is
