The normal reaction of the boy of mass 70 kg is 826 N.

Let us understand about normal reaction.

The force exerted by a surface on an object in contact with it which prevents the object from passing through the surface is called Normal reaction.

To calculate the normal reaction, we use the formula below.

Formula:

N = mg+m(v-u)/t.......... Equation 1

Where:

N = Normal reaction

m = Mass of the person

g = Acceleration due to gravity

v = Final Velocity

u = Initial velocity

t = Time

From the question,

Given:

m = 70 kg

v = 4 m/s

u = 0 m/s

t = 2 s

g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

N = (70×9.8)+70(4-0)/2

N = 686+140

N = 826 N

Hence, the normal reaction of the boy is 826 N.

How can the rate of evaporation of a liquid be increased?​
Nadusha1986 [10]

When air is blown above the surface of liquid, it will take away the liquid carrying air particles from the air above the liquid, resulting in decrease in humidity and increase in rate of evaporation.

Hope that this was helpful :)

A student is bicycling north along Main Street to school. Another student is timing the bicycling student in order to determine
MatroZZZ [7]

The average velocity is -4.17 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of a body is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement of the body

t is the time elapsed

For the student in this problem, we have:

Initial position: x_i = 450 m

Final position: x_f = 200 m

So the displacement is

d=x_f -x_i = 200 - 450 = -250 m

The time elapsed is

t = 60 s

Therefore, the average velocity is

v=\frac{-250}{60}=-4.17 m/s

Where the negative sign means the student is moving towards the origin.

If the star Sirius emits 23 times more energy than the Sun, why does the Sun appear brighter in the sky?
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

As b ∝ (L/r²) and

the distance of the sun from the earth is 0.00001581 light years

and

the distance of the Sirius from the earth is 8.6 light years

hence,

the Sun appear brighter in the sky

Explanation:

The brightness (b) is directly proportional to the Luminosity of the star (L) and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the star and the observer (r).

thus, mathematically,

b ∝ (L/r²)

now,

given

L for sirius is 23 times more than the sun i.e 23L

now,

the distance of the sun from the earth is 0.00001581 light years

and

the distance of the Sirius from the earth is 8.6 light years

thus,

using the the relation between conclude that the value of brightness for the Sirius comes very very low as compared to the value for brightness for the Sun.

hence, the sun appears brighter
