Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The final velocity of her partner is approximately -1.04 m/s or 1.04 m/s in the opposite direction to her direction of motion

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the man, m₁ = 65 kg

The mass of the woman, m₂ = 45 kg

Taking the relative initial velocity of the man and the woman as 0 m/s, we have;

The initial velocity of the man, v₁₁ = 0 m/s

The initial velocity of the man, v₁₂ = 0 m/s

The final velocity of the woman, v₂₂ = 1.5 m/s

The final velocity of the man = v₂₁

Therefore, we have, by the conservation of momentum principle;

The total initial momentum = The total final momentum

Which gives;

m₁ × v₁₁ + m₂ × v₁₂ = m₁ × v₂₁ + m₂ × v₂₂

Substituting the known values;

65 × 0 + 45 × 0 = 65 × v₂₁ + 45 × 1.5

∴ 65 × v₂₁ + 45 × 1.5 = 0

45 × 1.5 = - 65 × v₂₁

v₂₁ = 45 × 1.5/(-65) ≈ -1.04 m/s

The final velocity of the man, her partner = v₂₁ ≈ -1.04 m/s.

A 6.00 A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper has 8.5×1028 free elect

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Current, I = 6 A

diameter of wire, d = 2.05 mm

number of electrons per unit volume, n = 8.5 x 10^28

If the diameter is doubled,

The resistance of the wire is inversely proportional to the square of the diameter of the wire, so the resistance is one forth an the current is directly proportional to the diameter of the wire so the current is four times the initial value.

A ball falls off of a 3m tall shelf. How long will it take for the

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

0.8s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of shelf = 3m

Unknown:

Time it will take to hit the ground = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below;

x = ut + $\frac{1}{2}$ gt²

x is the height

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

t is the time taken = ?

Now insert the parameters and solve for t;

3 = (0 x t) +( $\frac{1}{2}$ x 9.8 x t²)

3 = 4.9t²

t² = 0.6

t = 0.8s

When an object slides across the floor, it is slowed down by friction and the floor surface gets warmer. what energy conversion

OverLord2011 [107]

The movement of the object is considered to be kinetic energy while the object getting warmer indicates that there is thermal (heat) energy formed.

Based on this, as the object slides across the floor, friction slows down this motion and the object becomes warmer as kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy.
