Answer:

B. The bullet hits the coconut

Explanation:

The hunter fired a bullet and hit the coconut he wanted to drop from the tree. It may not seem so, since the coconut fell as soon as the hunter pulled the trigger, but a rifle bullet has a speed equal to 3,500 km / h, which is too fast for our eyes to be able to observe the moment when the bullet hit the coconut.

However, it would be quite a coincidence that exactly the coconut that the hunter aimed for fell naturally without the influence of the bullet. Because of this, we can say that the hunter hit the coconut.

If the resistance of dry skin is 200 times larger than the resistance of wet skin, how do the maximum voltages without shock com
Lelu [443]

Answer:

<em> B) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

This is the complete question

A person will feel a shock when a current of greater than approximately 100μ A flows between his index finger and thumb. If the resistance of dry skin is 200 times larger than the resistance of wet skin, how do the maximum voltages without shock compare in each scenario?

A) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times smaller than the voltage on wet skin.

B) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.

C) The voltage on dry skin is the same as the voltage on wet skin.

D) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 40,000 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.

Ohm's law states that electric current is proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.

the equation is written as

V = IR

Where V is the voltage

I is the current

R is the resistance

for this case, the current I is 100μ A = 100 x 10^16 A

resistance of wet skin = R

resistance of dry skin = 200R

for the wet skin, voltage will be

V = IR = 100*10^{-6} R

for dry skin, voltage will be

V = IR = 100*10^{-6}*200R = 0.02R

Comparing both voltages

0.02R ÷  100*10^{-6} R  = 200

<em>this means that the voltage on the wet skin should be 200 times lesser than the voltage on the dry skin or the voltage on the dry skin should be 200 times more than the voltage on the wet skin.</em>

What is the current when the voltage is 18 volts and the resistance is 6 ohms?
juin [17]
Voltage = current(I) * resistance (R)
V = 18
R = 6

18 = I * 6
I = 18/6 = 3 Amps or D

A materials density is the same , no matter how large or small the sample is or what it’s shape is as long as it is solid unifor
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

Density is defined as the relationship between mass and volume, i.e. the following equation can be used:

density = m/v

where:

density [kg/m^3]

m = mass [kg]

v = volume [m^3]

If we change the volume of a body by reducing its size, its mass will also decrease proportionally with a density as seen in the equation.

m = density*v

To understand this concept more clearly, let's use the following example:

We know that the density of water is equal to 1000 [kg/m^3], that is, 1 cubic meter of water contains 1000 kilograms of water, using the equation.

1000 = m /1

m = 1000*1 = 1000 [kg]

Now if we have 500 kilograms of water, that would pass with the volume so that the density remains constant.

1000 = 500/v

v = 500/1000

v = 0.5 [m^3]

We can see that the volume of water has halved. Since the mass of water was reduced by half. That is, the relationship between mass and volume is proportional to the density of the material or substance.

Robbie found a rock in a stream. The rock was smooth and round. What MOST LIKELY caused this to happen?
Degger [83]

Answer:

C, weathering by the water.

Explanation:

While in the river, it scraps againsts other rocks and things, which causes it to change shape. For example be smoother and round.

Jaclyn plays singles for South's varsity tennis team. During the match against North, Jaclyn won the sudden death tiebreaker poi
Nataly [62]

Answer

given,

mass of ball, m = 57.5 g = 0.0575 kg

velocity of ball northward,v = 26.7 m/s

mass of racket, M = 331 g = 0.331 Kg

velocity of the ball after collision,v' = 29.5 m/s

a) momentum of ball before collision

   P₁ = m v

   P₁ = 0.0575 x 26.7

   P₁ = 1.535 kg.m/s

b) momentum of ball after collision

   P₂ = m v'

   P₂ = 0.0575 x (-29.5)

   P₂ = -1.696 kg.m/s

c) change in momentum

    Δ P = P₂ - P₁

    Δ P = -1.696 -1.535

    Δ P = -3.231 kg.m/s

d) using conservation of momentum

  initial speed of racket = 0 m/s

  M u + m v = Mu' + m v

  M x 0 + 0.0575 x 26.7 = 0.331 x u' + 0.0575 x (-29.5)

  0.331 u' = 3.232

     u' = 9.76 m/s

change in velocity of the racket is equal to 9.76 m/s
