Describe what happens when you jump from a small boat onto a dock from the perspective of the 3rd Law.

according to newton's third law, every action has equal and opposite reaction. in this scenario of making a jump from the boat onto a dock, as i jump my feet in contact with the boat push the boat in backward direction. hence the action force is the push by my feet on the boat. the boat reacts by applying a reaction force on my feet pushing the feet in forward direction. hence reaction force here is the force by the boat on the feet. due to the reaction force of the boat on feet, i am pushed in forward direction to reach the the dock.

A group of bike riders took a 4 hour trip. During the first 3 hours, they traveled a total of 50 km, but
zlopas [31]

Answer:

15km/hr

Explanation:

The average speed for the entire trip is the sum of the total distance traveled divided by the total time of the trip.

Total time  = 4hr

distance for the first 3hrs  = 50km

distance for the last 1hr  = 10km

  Total distance  = 50km + 10km  = 60km

Now;

  Average speed  = \frac{total distance }{time taken}  

 Insert the parameters and solve;

 Average speed  = \frac{60km}{4hr}   = 15km/hr

Help me fill this out please (BRANLIEST!!!)
Dafna1 [17]

Answer: For 18 the inch is longer im not sure by how much, for 19 the the kilogram is 2.2 times heavier than a pound, QUART IS A LITTLE LESS THAN A LITER. ... An easy way to figure from liters to gallons, for example, is that a quart is a little less than a liter and 4 liters is a little more than 1 gallon. To be exact, 1 liter is 0.264 gallon (a little more than a quart), and 4 liters is 1.06 gallons,  30°C or 30°F? Correct answer: the table shows that 30°C is about 86°F, which is warmer than 30°F.   And sorry Im not sure how to do the rest

A bullet with a mass ????=12.5 g and speed ????=86.4 m/s is fired into a wooden block with ????=113 g which is initially at rest
skad [1K]

Answer:

a) 8.61 m/s, b) 5.73 m

Explanation:

a) During the collision, momentum is conserved.

mv = (m + M) V

(12.5 g) (86.4 m/s) = (12.5 g + 113 g) V

V = 8.61 m/s

b) After the collision, energy is conserved.

Kinetic energy = Work done by friction

1/2 (m + M) V² = F d

1/2 (m + M) V² = N μk d

1/2 (m + M) V² = (m + M) g μk d

1/2 V² = g μk d

d = V² / (2g μk)

d = (8.61 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s² × 0.659)

d = 5.73 m

Notice we used the kinetic coefficient of friction.  That's the friction when an object is moving.  The static coefficient of friction is the friction on a stationary object.  Since the bullet/block combination is sliding across the surface, we use the kinetic coefficient.
