Answer:

C.

Explanation:

If we look at the equation x(final) = v(initial)*t + x(initial), where v(initial in the x dir.) in the same both times, and x(initial) is 0, we can conclude that t is responsible for the change in x(final).

In the data table , distance is measured in meters and time is in seconds. Calculate the mans average velocity using the equatio
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

3.626 m/s

Explanation:

v=d/t

1. -0.02/0 = 0 m/s

2. 0.86/0.2 = 4.3 m/s

3. 1.71/0.4 = 4.275 m/s

4. 2.54/0.6 = 4.23 m/s

5. 3.32/0.8 = 4.15 m/s

6. 4.08/1.0 = 4.08 m/s

7. 4.79/1.2 = 3.99 m/s

8. 5.48/1.4 = 3.91 m/s

9. 6.15/1.6 = 3.84 m/s

10. 6.76/1.8 = 3.76 m/s

11. 7.37/2.0 = 3.66 m/s

12. 7.92/2.2 = 3.6 m/s

13. 8.45/2.4 = 3.52 m/s

14. 8.96/2.6 = 3.45 m/s

the mean of these numbers is 3.626

his average velocity ks 3.626 m/s

The sun's rays have a greater effect on land temperature than they have on water temperature. This can be explained partly by wh
____ [38]

Answer:

The answer is choice (3)

Explanation: Land materials do require more energy than water to raise their temperature by one degree, hence why water gets heated a lot easier than something like wood.

A 78−kg skier is sliding down a ski slope at a constant velocity. The slope makes an angle of 21° above the horizontal direction
Feliz [49]

Answer:

274N 0.41

Explanation:

As he is sliding down in a constant speed then the force that accelerates him (weight) and the force that slows his down (friction) are equal.

then

<em>friction=mass x gravity x sin(21)</em>

Fr=78kg x 9.8m/s2 x sin(21)=274N

<em>friction= coefficient of kinetic friction x normal force of from the slope</em>

Fr= u x 78kg x 9.8m/s2 x cos(21)=274N

Fr= u x 78kg x 9.8m/s2 x cos(21)=274Nu=274/677=0.41

If the swimmer starts at rest, slides without friction, and descends through a vertical height of 2.41 m
AveGali [126]

Answer:

6.88 m/s

Explanation:

The Conservation of Energy states that:

Initial Kinetic Energy + Initial Potential Energy = Final Kinetic Energy + Final Potential Energy

So we can write

mgh_{i}+\frac{1}{2}mv_{i} ^{2}=mgh_{f}+\frac{1}{2}mv_{f} ^{2}

We can cancel the common factor of m which leaves us with

gh_{i}+\frac{1}{2}v_{i} ^{2}=gh_{f}+\frac{1}{2}v_{f} ^{2}

Lets solve for v_f

gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}=gh_{f}+\frac{v_{f} ^{2}}{2}

Subtract gh_f from both sides of the equation.

gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}-gh_{f}=\frac{v_{f} ^{2}}{2}

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.

2(gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}-gh_{f})={v_{f} ^{2}

Simplify the left side.

Apply the distributive property.

2(gh_{i})+2\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}+2(-gh_{f})={v_{f} ^{2}

Cancel the common factor of 2.

2gh_{i}+v_{i} ^{2}-2gh_{f}={v_{f} ^{2}

Take the square root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the right side.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{2gh_{i}+v_{i} ^{2}-2gh_{f}}

We are given g,v_{i},h_{i},h_{f}.

We can now solve for the final velocity.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{(2*9.81*2.41)+(0^{2})-(2*9.81*0)

Anything multiplied by 0 is 0.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{2*9.81*2.41

{v_{f}=\sqrt{47.2842

v_f=6.88
