Suppose the polar bear was running on land instead of swimming. If the polar bear runs at a speed of about 8.3 m/s, how far will
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

298800 m

Explanation:

v =  \frac{d}{t}

V=speed

d=distance

t=time

d = vt

Change hours to seconds

It will be 36000s

8.3m/s * 36000s

=298800m

There is a 90 kg woman attached at the end of a bungee cord (k = 35 N/m) that is experiencing simple harmonic motion. How long d
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The value is T  =10.1 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the woman is  m  = 90 \  kg  

    The spring constant of the bungee cord is  k  =  35 \  N/  m

Generally the period of the oscillation (i,e time taken to complete on  cycle ) is mathematically represented as

            T  = 2 \pi *  \sqrt{ \frac{m}{k} }

=>      T  = 2 * 3.142  *  \sqrt{ \frac{90 }{ 35} }

=>      T  =10.1 \ s
