Explanation:

Simply, shake the boxes. The box that is difficult to shake will be the sand and the box that will be easier will be the feathers.

<h2><em><u>⇒</u></em>Answer:</h2>

In the standing broad jump, one squats and then pushes off with the legs to see how far one can jump. Suppose the extension of the legs from the crouch position is 0.600 m and the acceleration achieved from this position is 1.25 times the acceleration due to gravity, g . How far can they jump? State your assumptions. (Increased range can be achieved by swinging the arms in the direction of the jump.)

Step-by-Step Solution:

Solution 35PE

This question discusses about the increased range. So, we shall assume that the angle of jumping will be  as the horizontal range is maximum at this angle.

Step 1 of 3<

/p>

The legs have an extension of 0.600 m in the crouch position.

So,  m

The person is at rest initially, so the initial velocity will be zero.

The acceleration is  m/s2

Acceleration  m/s2

Let the final velocity be .

Step 2 of 3<

/p>

Substitute the above given values in the kinematic equation  ,

m/s

Therefore, the final velocity or jumping speed is  m/s

Suppose you are drinking root beer from a conical paper cup. The cup has a diameter of 10 centimeters and a depth of 13 centimet
sveta [45]

Answer:

The level of the root beer is dropping at a rate of 0.08603 cm/s.

Explanation:

The volume of the cone is :

V=\frac {1}{3}\times \pi\times r^2\times h

Where, V is the volume of the cone

r is the radius of the cone

h is the height of the cone

The ratio of the radius and the height remains constant in overall the cone.

Thus, given that, r = d / 2 = 10 / 2 cm = 5 cm

h = 13 cm

r / h = 5 / 13

r = {5 / 13} h

V=\frac {1}{3}\times \frac {22}{7}\times ({{{\frac {5}{13}\times h}}})^2\times h

V=\frac {550}{3549}\times h^3

Also differentiating the expression of volume w.r.t. time as:

\frac {dV}{dt}=\frac {550}{3549}\times 3\times h^2\times \frac {dh}{dt}

Given: \frac {dV}{dt} = -4 cm³/sec (negative sign to show leaving)

h = 10 cm

So,

-4=\frac{550}{3549}\times 3\times {10}^2\times \frac {dh}{dt}

\frac{55000}{1183}\times \frac {dh}{dt}=-4

\frac {dh}{dt}=-0.08603\ cm/s

<u>The level of the root beer is dropping at a rate of 0.08603 cm/s.</u>

jasenka [17]
Answer is B. 

In a lever, the effort arm is 2 times as a long as the load arm. The resultant force will be twice the applied force.

Hope it helped you.
