Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (later speed) - (earlier speed) = (13 - 24) = -11 km/hr
Time for the change = 2 seconds

Acceleration = (-11 km/hr) / (2 sec)

Acceleration = -5.5 km/hr-sec  (B)

A person weighs 60 kg. The area under the foot of the person is 150 cm2. Find the pressure exerted on the ground by the person.
9966 [12]

Answer:

40000 N/m²

Explanation:

Applying,

P =  F/A................... Equation 1

Where P = Pressure, F = Force, A = Area.

From the question,

The force(F) exerted by the person's foot is thesame as it's weight.

F = W = mg............ Equation 2

Where m = mass of the person, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

P = mg/A................ Equation 3

Given: m = 60 kg, g = 10 m/s², A = 150 cm² = (150/10000) m² = 0.015 m²

Substitute these values into equation 3

P = (60×10)/0.015

P = 600/0.015

P = 40000 N/m²

"Two uniform identical solid spherical balls each of mass M and radius R" and moment of inertia about its center 2/5 MR2 are rel
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

he sphere that uses less time is sphere A

Explanation:

Let's start with ball A, for this let's use the kinematics relations

        v² = v₀² - 2g (y-y₀)

indicate that the sphere is released therefore its initial velocity is zero and when it reaches the floor its height is zero y = 0

         v² = 0 - 2 g (0- y₀)

         v = \sqrt{2g y_o}

         v = \sqrt{2 \ 9.8\ H}

         v = 4.427 √H

Now let's work the sphere B, in this case it rolls down a ramp, let's use the conservation of energy

starting point. At the highest point, before you start to move

         Em₀ = U = m g y

final point. At the bottom of the ramp

         Em_f = K = ½ m v² + ½ I w²

notice that we include the kinetic energy of translation and rotation

energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

          mg H = ½ m v² + ½ I w²

angular and linear velocity are related

          v = w r

          w = v / r

the momentorot of inertia indicates that it is worth

          I = \frac{2}{5} m r²

we substitute

           m g H = ½ m v² + ½ (\frac{2}{5}  m r²) (\frac{v}{r} )²

           gH = \frac{1}{2}  v² + \frac{1}{5}  v² = \frac{7}{10}  v²

           v = \sqrt{\frac{10}{7} \ g H}

           v = \sqrt{ \frac{10}{7}  \ 9.8 \ H}

           v=3.742 √H

Taking the final speeds of the sphere, let's analyze the distance traveled, sphere A falls into the air, so the distance traveled is H.  The ball B rolls in a plane, so the distance (L) traveled can be found with trigonometry

           sin θ = H / L

           L = H /sin θ

we can see that L> H

In summary, ball A arrives with more speed and travels a shorter distance, therefore it must use a shorter time

Consequently the sphere that uses less time is sphere A

andrey2020 [161]
The questions from this lot which could be tested in a scientific manner would be "what causes some people to be color-blind"
and
"what are the best shoes to wear when exercising"
Both of these questions can be tested in a scientific way through an experiment.

A child is riding a bike at a speed of 6m/s with a total kinetic energy of 1224J. If the mass of the child is 30kg, what is the
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

 Mass of bike = 38 kg.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given by the expression, KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2, where m is the mass and v is the velocity.

Here speed of child riding bike = 6 m/s

Mass of child = 30 kg

Total kinetic energy = 1224 J

Let the mass of bike be, m kg

So, total mass of child and bike = (m + 30) kg

Substituting,

  1224 = \frac{1}{2}* (m+30)*6^2\\ \\ m+30=68\\ \\ m=38kg

So, mass of bike = 38 kg.
