I think friction can help soccer players by helping them run so the friction can propell em. I just learned this it was pretty easy

The river narrows at a rapids from a width of 12 m to a width of only 5.8 m. The depth of the river before the rapids is 2.7 m;

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

7.89 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Width of the river, b1 = 12 m

Width of the river, b2 = 5.8 m

Depth of the river, d1 = 2.7 m

Depth of the river, d2 = 0.85 m

Speed of the river, v1 = 1.2 m/s

Speed of the river, v2 = ?

Area of the river before the rapid, a1 = 12 * 2.7 = 32.4 m²

Area of the river after the rapid, a2 = 5.8 * 0.85 = 4.93 m²

To solve this question, we use a relation between the speed of the river and the volume of the river. We say,

Area1 * velocity1 = Area2 * velocity2, and when we substitute the values for each other we have

32.4 * 1.2 = 4.93 * v2

38.88 = 4.93v2

v2 = 38.88 / 4.93

v2 = 7.89 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the river after the rapid is 7.89 m/s

A research submarine can withstand an external pressure of 62 megapascals (million pascals) all the while maintaining a comforta

Alex

Answer:

The depth will be equal to 6141.96 m

Explanation:

pressure on the submarine $P_{sea}$ = 62 MPa = 62 x 10^6 Pa

we also know that $P_{sea}$ = ρgh

where

ρ is the density of sea water = 1029 kg/m^3

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h is the depth below the water that this pressure acts

substituting values, we have

$P_{sea}$ = 1029 x 9.81 x h = 10094.49h

The gauge pressure within the submarine $P_{g}$ = 101 kPa = 101000 Pa

this gauge pressure is balanced by the atmospheric pressure (proportional to 101325 Pa) that acts on the surface of the sea, so it cancels out.

Equating the pressure $P_{sea}$ , we have

62 x 10^6 = 10094.49h

depth h = 6141.96 m

A bus took 8 hours to travel 639 km. For the first 5 hours, it

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

93 km/h

Explanation:

Given that a bus took 8 hours to travel 639 km. For the first 5 hours, it travelled at an average speed of 72 km/h

Let the first 5 hours journey distance = F

From the formula of speed,

Speed = distance/time

Substitute speed and time

72 = F/5

F = 72 × 5 = 360 km

The remaining distance will be:

639 - 360 = 279km

The remaining time will be:

8 - 5 = 3 hours

Speed = 279/3

Speed = 93 km/h

Therefore, the average speed for the remaining time of the journey is equal to 93 km/h

If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?

vovikov84 [41]

Complete Question

In an action movie, the villain is rescued from the ocean by grabbing onto the ladder hanging from a helicopter. He is so intent on gripping the ladder that he lets go of his briefcase of counterfeit money when he is 130 m above the water. If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?

Answer:

The speed of the helicopter is $u = 7.73 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height at which he let go of the brief case is h = 130 m

The time taken before the the brief case hits the water is t = 6 s

Generally the initial speed of the briefcase (Which also the speed of the helicopter )before the man let go of it is mathematically evaluated using kinematic equation as

$s = h+ u t + 0.5 gt^2$

Here s is the distance covered by the bag at sea level which is zero

$0 = 130+ u * (6) + 0.5 * (-9.8) * (6)^2$

=> $0 = 130+ u * (6) + 0.5 * (-9.8) * (6)^2$

=> $u = \frac{-130 + (0.5 * 9.8 * 6^2) }{6}$

=> $u = 7.73 \ m/s$
