They're just standing there, not going anywhere. Definitely not accelerating. That tells us that the net force on each one must be zero. So whatever push Katie is giving, she must be getting one the same size from Jennifer. And the same goes for the other lady.

What ever push she's giving her friend, her friend is also giving her.

Somehow, they're both pushing with equal forces.

Explanation:

she has more mass which means she is using more force

A basketball player wishes to make a stunning last-second basket. With .8 seconds on the clock, she wants the ball to enter the
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

(1) 46.86^\circ

(2) Diagram has been attached in the solution.

Explanation:

This question is from projectile motion.

From the given question, we will discuss the motion of the basket ball only in the vertical direction from which we will be able to find out the angle of the initial velocity with the horizontal with which it should be shoot to enter the hoop.

Part (1):

Let us assume:

  • y_i = initial position of the basket ball = 2.1 m
  • y_f = final position of the basket ball = 3.05 m
  • a_y = acceleration of the ball along the vertical = -9.8\ m/s^2
  • t = time taken to reach the goal = 0.8 s
  • \theta = angle of the initial velocity with the horizontal
  • u = initial speed of the ball = 7 m/s
  • u_y = initial vertical velocity of the ball = u\sin \theta

Using the equation of motion for constant acceleration, we have

y_f-y_i=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\Rightarrow 3.05-2.1=u\sin \theta (0.8) +\dfrac{1}{2}\times (-9.8)(0.8)^2\\\Rightarrow 0.95=7\times \sin \theta (0.8) -3.136\\\Rightarrow 0.95=5.6\sin \theta -3.136\\\Rightarrow 5.6\sin \theta= 0.95+3.136\\\Rightarrow 5.6\sin \theta= 4.086\\\Rightarrow \sin \theta= \dfrac{4.086}{5.6}\\\Rightarrow \sin \theta=0.729\\\Rightarrow \theta=\sin^{-1}(0.729)\\\Rightarrow \theta=46.86^\circ

Hence, the angle of the shoot of the basket ball with the horizontal is 46.86^\circ such that it reaches the hoop on time.

Part (2):

For this part, a diagram has been attached.

What is a similarity between ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds?
Semenov [28]
Ionic bond: it is also called "electrovalent bond". It is "a type of chemical bond that can often form between metal and non-metal ions through electrostatic attraction";

Covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding, "characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms, or between atoms and other covalent bonds";

Metallic bond: "the chemical bond, which is characteristic of metals, in which mobile valence electrons are shared among atoms in a usually stable crystalline".

Classify:Energyis the ability to exert force and cause change. Energy has manyforms:
Grace [21]

Answer:

Energy: Kinetic, Sound, Thermal, gravitational, electric, light and nuclear

Explanation:

This exercise asks to clarify a little some important concepts

* Energy. It is the capable one that has the bodies to carry out a job.

* Kinetic energy. It is the energy due to the movement of objects

* sound energy. It is the energy due to the vibration of the atoms or molecules of the materials, it can be solid, liquid or gaseous

* Thermal energy. It is the energy due to movement of the particles

* Gravitational Energy. It is a configuration energy due to the height of the bodies with respect to a reference point

* Electric power. It is due to the movement of electric charges

* light energy. It is the energy that light carries due to the electric and magnetic fields that form it, it occurs throughout the electromagnetic spectrum

* Nuclear energy. It is the energy stored in the nucleus by the configuration and movement of protons and neutrons.

If the absolute temperature of a gas is 600 K, the temperature in degrees Celsius is
gavmur [86]
Kelvin is a base unit of temperature scale from SI that defines as zero degree Kelvin (absolute zero). The absolute zero is a hypothetical statement that all molecular movement stops because there is no transient of energy for the molecules to move. When converting temperature in degree Celsius to Kelvin, add 273. You are given 600K and you are asked to find it in degrees Celsius.  

T(K) = T(C) + 273
600 K = T(C) + 273
T(C) = 600 – 273
T(C) = 327 °C

Answer: The kinetic-molecular theory explains why gases are more compressible than either liquids or solids. Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.
