King Arthur is riding his horse toward a raised drawbridge of his castle with a velocity of five m/s westward. The drawbridge at

tendant begins to lower the drawbridge which takes 15 seconds to lower. If King Arthur is 80 meters east of the edge of the moat when the drawbridge begins to go down will the drawbridge lower in time for him to cross without stopping?

Yes , the drawbridge will finish lowering 1 second before king arthur arrives

yes, king Arthur will be 1 second early  for the drawbridge to lower.

the key is to find the time by dividing the distance over the velocity (speed) and you get 16 seconds therefore you have one extra second left

which planet should punch travel to if his goal is to weigh in at 118 lb? refer to the table of planetary masses and radii given
Harrizon [31]

The planet that Punch should travel to in order to weigh 118 lb is Pentune.

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>The given parameters:</h3>
  • Weight of Punch on Earth = 236 lb
  • Desired weight = 118 lb

The mass of Punch will be constant in every planet;

W = mg\\\\m = \frac{W}{g}\\\\m = \frac{236}{g}

The acceleration due to gravity of each planet with respect to Earth is calculated by using the following relationship;

F = mg = \frac{GmM}{R^2} \\\\g = \frac{GM}{R^2}

where;

  • M is the mass of Earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ kg
  • R is the Radius of Earth = 6,371 km

For Planet Tehar;

g_T =\frac{G \times 2.1M}{(0.8R)^2} \\\\g_T = 3.28(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_T = 3.28 g

For planet Loput:

g_L =\frac{G \times 5.6M}{(1.7R)^2} \\\\g_L = 1.94(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_L = 1.94g

For planet Cremury:

g_C =\frac{G \times 0.36M}{(0.3R)^2} \\\\g_C = 4(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_C = 4 g

For Planet Suven:

g_s =\frac{G \times 12M}{(2.8R)^2} \\\\g_s = 1.53(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_s = 1.53 g

For Planet Pentune;

g_P =\frac{G \times 8.3 }{(4.1R)^2} \\\\g_P = 0.5(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_P = 0.5 g

For Planet Rams;

g_R =\frac{G \times 9.3M}{(4R)^2} \\\\g_R = 0.58(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_R = 0.58 g

The weight Punch on Each Planet at a constant mass is calculated as follows;

W = mg\\\\W_T = mg_T\\\\W_T = \frac{236}{g} \times 3.28g = 774.08 \ lb\\\\W_L = \frac{236}{g} \times 1.94g =457.84 \ lb\\\\ W_C = \frac{236}{g}\times 4g = 944 \ lb \\\\ W_S = \frac{236}{g} \times 1.53g = 361.08 \ lb\\\\W_P = \frac{236}{g} \times 0.5 g = 118 \ lb\\\\W_R = \frac{236}{g} \times 0.58 g = 136.88 \ lb

Thus, the planet that Punch should travel to in order to weigh 118 lb is Pentune.

<u>The </u><u>complete question</u><u> is below</u>:

Which planet should Punch travel to if his goal is to weigh in at 118 lb? Refer to the table of planetary masses and radii given to determine your answer.

Punch Taut is a down-on-his-luck heavyweight boxer. One day, he steps on the bathroom scale and "weighs in" at 236 lb. Unhappy with his recent bouts, Punch decides to go to a different planet where he would weigh in at 118 lb so that he can compete with the bantamweights who are not allowed to exceed 118 lb. His plan is to travel to Xobing, a newly discovered star with a planetary system. Here is a table listing the planets in that system (<em>find the image attached</em>).

<em>In the table, the mass and the radius of each planet are given in terms of the corresponding properties of the earth. For instance, Tehar has a mass equal to 2.1 earth masses and a radius equal to 0.80 earth radii.</em>

Monochromatic light of wavelength 687 nm is incident on a narrow slit. On a screen 1.65 m away, the distance between the second
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a ) 1.267 radian

b ) 1.084 10⁻³ mm

Explanation:

Distance of screen D = 1.65 m

Width of slit d = ?

Wave length of light   λ  = 687 nm.

Distance of second minimum fro centre y = 2.09 cm

Angle of diffraction = y / D

=  2.09 /1.65  

= 1.267. radian

Angle of diffraction of second minimum

= 2 λ / d

so 2 λ / d = 1.267

d = 2 λ / 1.267 = (2 x 687 ) /1.267 nm

=1084.45 nm = 1.084 x 10⁻³ mm.

Based on the principles of convection, conduction and thermal radiation, which scenario below is most similar to the following s
Ksivusya [100]

The situation (heat going through the ceiling) describes
conduction ...
heat going from one place to another by
soaking through some material.

A).  This is the one.  Heat goes from from the marshmallow
to your hand by soaking through the wire.   This is conduction too.

B).  No.  The heat in the room goes from the floor to the ceiling
because the warm air rises and carries it there.  This is convection.

C).  No.  There's nothing for the heat to soak through between
the sun and the roof, and nothing that can move from the sun
to the roof and bring the heat with it.  This is radiation.

D).  No.  Cold water sinks from the surface to the bottom because
warm water rose from the bottom to the surface, taking heat with it. 
This is convection.

Can you please tell me what this is
Anna [14]

Answer:

200000 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of roller coaster = 1000 Kg

Velocity (v) of roller coaster = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

Kinetic energy is simply defined as the energy possess by an object in motion. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

KE = ½mv²

Where

KE => is the kinetic energy.

m =>is the mass of the object

V => it the velocity of the object.

With the above formula, we can obtain the kinetic energy of the roller coaster as follow:

Mass (m) of roller coaster = 1000 Kg

Velocity (v) of roller coaster = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 1000 × 20²

KE = 500 × 400

KE = 200000 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the roller coaster is 200000 J.

A hammer is used to hit a nail into a board. Which statement is correct about the forces at play between the nail and the hammer
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Hewo My Lovelys!!

Answer is down below!!

Explanation:

The answer is C) The nail exerts an equal force on the hammer in the opposite direction.

Reason: The Newtons third law states that there is an equal an opposite reaction for every action. When hammer pushes the nail, the nail will push the hammer back in opposite direction. When the hammer hits a nail then nail will exert the equal and opposite force to the hammer. These both objects will exert force on each other in opposite directions.

Hope this helps!! =3

Have a great day, evening, of night!! <3
