Given,

The height, h=5 m

The potential energy of the object at the point where height is h is equal to its kinetic energy at point A.

Therefore,

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\text{mgh}

Where m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

On rearranging the above equation,

v=\sqrt[]{2gh}

On substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{2\times9.8\times5} \\ =9.9\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus the speed of the object at point A is 9.9 m/s

If a skier travels at a constant velocity downhill, this means the forces on her are: ................. A. Zero B. Negligible C.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

F = 0

Explanation:

The net force acting on an object is given by the product of mass and acceleration. We know that acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity.

Net force,

F = ma

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}

The skier is traveling at a constant velocity, it means there is no change in velocity i.e. acceleration is equal to 0. Hence, the force on her is 0.

astronaut is traveling in a space vehicle moving at 0.510c relative to the Earth. The astronaut measures her pulse rate at 61.0
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

45.13 beats/min

Explanation:

Speed of space vehicle  = 0.51c

the pulse rate measured by the astronaut= 61.0 beats per minute

Pulse rate measured by the Earth observer is given by

=(pulse\ rate)\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} }

putting vales we get

=61\sqrt{1-\frac{0.51^2c^2}{c^2} }

= 45.13 beats/min

What is the current in a circuit if 3.50 C of charge passes any given point in a circuit in 1.80 s?
stepan [7]

Answer:

I = 1.944 A

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Charge, Q = 3.5C

Time, t = 1.8 secs

Charge of a substance is given by the formula;

Q = It

Where;

Q is the amount of charge measured in Colombs.

I is the current measured in Amperes.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Making I the subject of formula, we have

I = \frac {Q}{t}

I = \frac {3.5}{1.8}

I = 1.944 A

Therefore, the current in the circuit is 1.944 Amperes.
