Two football players collide head-on in midair while trying to catch a thrown football and cling together. The first player is 9

4 kg and has an initial velocity of 6 m/s, while the second player is 116 kg and has an initial velocity of -5 m/sn the next three parts, (d) through (f), justify that friction could be ignored compared to the forces of collision by considering the change in momentum of the first player. Let's assume that the collision lasts for 10ms. Calculate the force on the first player by the second player during the collision

Answer:

F = 57116.2 N

Explanation:

As we know that during collision the force between two players due to all external factors is very small or negligible

So we can use momentum conservation to find the final common speed

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = (m_1 + m_2) v

so we have

94(6) + (116)(-5) = (94 + 116) v

v = -0.076 m/s

now we can find acceleration which is defined as rate of change in velocity

So it is given as

a = \frac{v_F - v_i}{\Delta t}

a = \frac{-0.076 - 6}{10 \times 10^{-3}}

a = - 607.62 m/s^2

Now force on first player is given as

F = ma

F = 94 \times (607.62)

F = 57116.2 N

An electrician is creating a wiring plan for a small house. He needs to create a plan that will allow the homeowners to turn off
Naily [24]
So the answer is B) he should wire each room in parallel. This is because when the bulbs are in parallel if one part of the parallel circuit is broken (eg when you switch a light off) then the current can still flow to all the other bulbs, meaning they stay turned on. Hope this helps :)

Ashley is flying a plane that has to reach a gradient of 360m/km in order to take off and not crash. Her goal is to travel from
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

She is likely to crash because her flight gradient is lesser than the flight gradient required gradient to avoid crashing

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The required gradient of the plane Ashley is flying needs to reach in order to take off and not crash = 360 m/km

The initial elevation of the plane Ashley is flying = Sea level = 0 m

The goal Ashley intends to make = Elevation of 1000 m at 2.8 km. distance

∴ Ashley's goal = Traveling from sea level to 1000 m at 2.8 km horizontal distance

We have;

The gradient  = Rate of change of elevation/(Horizontal distance)

Therefore;

The gradient of Ashley's flight = (1000 - 0)/(2.8 - 0) = 357.143 m/km

The gradient of Ashley's flight ≈ 357.143 m/km which is lesser than the required 360 m/km in order to take off and not crash, therefore, she will crash.

5. Graph A below plots a race car's speed for 5 seconds. The car's rate of acceleration is 6 m/s^2
Georgia [21]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

We are to check if the statement is true of false. If it is false, we correct the statement.

Solution:

Acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity. It is the ratio of the change in velocity to the change in time. The acceleration can be gotten from a velocity time graph by finding the slope of the graph.

The x coordinate represent the time and the y coordinate velocity.

5) Graph A passes through the point (0, 0) and (4, 24). Therefore the acceleration (slope) is:

Acceleration = \frac{24-0}{4-0}=6\ m/s^2

This is correct.

6) Graph B is a straight line of 12 m/s. It passes through (0, 12) and (4, 12). Hence:

Acceleration = \frac{12-12}{4-0}=0\ m/s^2

This is false.

Therefore the acceleration of graph B is 0 m/s².

Differences between looping and simersaulting​
Anika [276]
Somersaulting- for longer distances.It bends the narrow end in the direction it wants to go & takes grip with tentacles. It releases the broad end and straightens up. like this it continues. looping- for shorter distances.
