A boy can swim 3.0 meter a second in still water while trying to swim directly across a river from west to east, he is pulled by

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Angle: $48.19^o$

Explanation:

<u>Two-Dimension Motion</u>

When the object is moving in one plane, the velocity, acceleration, and displacement are vectors. Apart from the magnitudes, we also need to find the direction, often expressed as an angle respect to some reference.

Our boy can swim at 3 m/s from west to east in still water and the river he's attempting to cross interacts with him at 2 m/s southwards. The boy will move east and south and will reach the other shore at a certain distance to the south from where he started. It happens because there is a vertical component of his velocity that is not compensated.

To compensate for the vertical component of the boy's speed, he only has to swim at a certain angle east of the north (respect to the shoreline). The goal is to make the boy's y component of his velocity equal to the velocity of the river. The vertical component of the boy's velocity is

$v_b\ cos\alpha$

where $v_b$ is the speed of the boy in still water and $\alpha$ is the angle respect to the shoreline. If the river flows at speed $v_s$ , we now set

$v_b\ cos\alpha=v_s$

$\displaystyle cos\alpha=\frac{v_s}{v_b}=\frac{2}{3}$

$\alpha=48.19^o$

A rough estimate of the radius of a nucleus is provided by the formula r 5 kA1/3, where k is approximately 1.3 × 10213 cm and A

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Density of 127 I = $\rm 1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.$

Also, $\rm Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.$

Explanation:

Given, the radius of a nucleus is given as

$\rm r=kA^{1/3}$ .

where,

$\rm k = 1.3\times 10^{-13} cm.$

A is the mass number of the nucleus.

The density of the nucleus is defined as the mass of the nucleus M per unit volume V.

$\rm \rho = \dfrac{M}{V}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi r^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi (kA^{1/3})^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi k^3A}.$

For the nucleus 127 I,

Mass, M = $\rm 2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g.$

Mass number, A = 127.

Therefore, the density of the 127 I nucleus is given by

$\rm \rho = \dfrac{2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g}{\dfrac 43 \times \pi \times (1.3\times 10^{-13})^3\times 127}=1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.$

On comparing with the density of the solid iodine,

$\rm \dfrac{Density\ of\ ^{127}I}{Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine}=\dfrac{1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3}{4.93\ g/cm^3}=3.63\times 10^{13}.\\\\\Rightarrow Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.$

An unbalanced force gives a 2.00 kg mass an acceleration of 5.00 m/s? What is the force applied to the object?

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

Equation: ΣF = ma

Fapp = ma

Fapp = (2kg)(5m/s^2) (im guessing you mean 5.00 m/s^2 not m/s)

Fapp = 10*kg*m/s^2

Fapp = 10N

wo lacrosse players collide in midair. Jeremy has a mass of 120 kg and is moving at a speed of 3 m/s. Hans has a mass of 140 kg

Julli [10]

2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,

Mass of Jeremy is 120 kg ( $M_J$ )

Speed of Jeremy is 3 m/s ( $V_J$ )

Speed of Jeremy after collision is ( $V_{JA}$ ) -2.5 m/s

Mass of Hans is 140 kg ( $M_H$ )

Speed of Hans is -2 m/s ( $V_H$ )

Speed of Hans after collision is ( $V_{HA}$ )

Linear momentum is defined as “mass time’s speed of the vehicle”. Linear momentum before the collision of Jeremy and Hans is

= $=\mathrm{M}_{1} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{J}}+\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{H}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{H}}$

Substitute the given values,

= 120 × 3 + 140 × (-2)

= 360 + (-280)

= 80 kg m/s

Linear momentum after the collision of Jeremy and Hans is

= $=\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{J}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{JA}}+\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{H}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{HA}}$

= 120 × (-2.5) + 140 × $V_{HA}$

= -300 + 140 × $V_{HA}$

We know that conservation of liner momentum,

Linear momentum before the collision = Linear momentum after the collision

80 = -300 + 140 × $V_{HA}$

80 + 300 = 140 × $V_{HA}$

380 = 140 × $V_{HA}$

380/140= $V_{HA}$

$V_{HA}$ = 2.71 m/s

2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.
