A. Jordin's distance was longer by 10 meters.
B. Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters.
C. Samantha's distance was longer by 2 meters.

Answer:

B. Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters.

Explanation:

The distance Samantha runs = Samantha's speed ×  Samantha's time = 10 m/s × 10 s = 100 m

The distance Jordin runs = Jordin's speed × Jordin's time = 8 m/s × 15 s = 120 m.

The difference in the distance run = (120 - 100) m = 20 m.

So, Jordin's distance is 20 m more than that of Samantha.

So, Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters is the answer.

Compare the collision between two baseballs and a catcher's mitt.
Nookie1986 [14]

The applied force is different for the two cases

The case A with a greater force involves the greatest momentum change

The case A involves the greatest force.

<h3>What is collision?</h3>
  • This is the head-on impact between two object moving in opposite or same direction.

The initial momentum of the two ball is the same.

P = mv

where;

  • m is the mass of each
  • v is the initial velocity of each ball

Since the force applied by the arm is different, the final velocity of the balls before stopping will be different.

Thus, the final momentum of each ball will be different

The impulse experienced by each ball is different since impulse is the change in momentum of the balls.

J = ΔP

The force applied by the rigid arm is greater than the force applied by the relaxed arm because the force applied by the rigid arm will cause the ball to be brought to rest faster.

Thus, we can conclude the following;

  • The applied force is different for the two cases
  • The case A with a greater force involves the greatest momentum change
  • The case A involves the greatest force.

The roller coaster is designed according to safety regulations that prohibit the speed of the car from exceeding 20 m/s. find th
hram777 [196]

maximum allowed value of the speed in roller coaster is given as

v = 20 m/s

now from kinematics we can say

v^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a s

here initial speed will be

v_i = 0

acceleration is due to gravity

a = 9.8 m/s^2

now we can use this to find the height

20^2 - 0^2 = 2 * 9.8* h

400 = 19.6 *h

h = 20.4 m

so maximum allowed height will be 20.4 m

A person is riding a bicycle, and its wheels have an angular velocity of 10.7 rad/s. Then, the brakes are applied and the bike i
Scilla [17]

Answer:

(a) t = 22.9 s

(b) α= - 0.467 rad/s²

Explanation:

The uniformly accelerated circular movement, is a circular path movement in which the angular acceleration is constant.

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated :

ωf ²=  ω₀² + 2*α*θ  Formula (1)

ωf= ω₀ + α*t Formula (2)

Where:

θ : angle that the body has rotated in a given time interval (rad)

α : angular acceleration (rad/s²)

t : time interval (s)

ω₀ : initial angular speed ( rad/s)

ωf : final angular speed ( rad/s)

Data

θ =  19.5 revolutions  : angular displacement of each wheel or angle that the  wheel has rotated in a given time interval

ω₀= 10.7 rad/s :  initial angular speed of the Wheel ( rad/s)

ωf = 0 : final angular speed  of the Whee( rad/s)

Calculating of the angular acceleration (α )

We replace data in the fómula (1),considering that 1 revolution is equal to 2π radians :

ωf ²=  ω₀² + 2*α*θ

(0 )²=  (10.7)² + 2*α*(19.5*2*π )

0= 114.49 + (245.04)*α

-114.49 =  (245.04)*α

α= (-114.49) /(245.04)

α= -114.49 /(245.04)

α= -0.467 rad/s²

Time does it take for the bike to come to rest

We replace data in the formula (2)

ωf = ω₀ + α*t

0 =  10.7 + -0.467*t

-10.7  = - 0.467*t    we multiply by (-1) both sides of the equation :

10.7  = 0.467*t  

t = 10.7 / 0.467

t = 22.9 s
