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

1 answer:

5 0

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 circuit has an overall resistance of 40 ohms and a current of 200mA.

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Hey!

_________________

Voltage (V) = 0.8V

Current (I) = 200 mA = 200/10^3 = 2/10

Resistance = ?

Resistance = Voltage / Current

Voltage = Current × Resistance

0.8 = 2/10 × Resistance

0.8×10/2 = Resistance

8/2 = Resistance

Resistance = 4 ohm

Unpolarized light with an intensity of (25.0 A) units is passed through two successive polarizing filters, the first with its po

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

the intensity of the light after passing through the two polarizing filters is 4.11 units

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

the intensity of an unpolarized light; I₀ = 25.0 units

when the unpolarized light passes through the first polarizer, its intensity reduces to half of its initial value;

⇒ I₁ = I₀/2 = 25/2 = 12.5 units

the angle between the transmission axes of two polarizers is;

∅ = 55° - 0° = 55°

The intensity of the light after passing through two polarizing filters will be;

I₂ = I₁cos²∅

we substitute

I₂ = 12.5 × cos²(55)

I₂ = 12.5 × 0.3289899

I₂ = 4.11 units

Therefore, the intensity of the light after passing through the two polarizing filters is 4.11 units

Jin knows that the initial internal energy of a closed system is 78 J and the final internal energy is 180 J. He also knows that

lawyer [7]

As we know by the first law of thermodynamics

$Q = \Delta U + W$

here we know that

Q = heat given to the system

$\Delta U = U_f - U_i$

W = work done by the system

now here we can say

$\Delta U = 180 - 78 = 102 J$

$W = 64 J$

now we can say that heat will be given as

$Q = 64 + 102 = 166 J$

now here we can say that Jin does the error in his first step while calculation of change in internal energy as he had to subtract it while he added the two energy

So best describe Jin's Error is

<em>B )For step 1, he should have subtracted 78 J from 180 J to find the change in internal energy. </em>

How do you calculate the mass of an object accelerating at22.35m/s2 with a force of 120N

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The mass of object is calculated as 5.36 kg

Explanation:

The known terms to find the mass are:

acceleration of object (a) = 22.35 $m/s^{2}$

Force exerted (F) = 120N

mass of an object (m) = ?

From Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

or, 120 = m × 22.35

or, m= $\frac{120}{22.35}$ kg

∴ m = 5.36 kg

What is the density of an object with a mass of 60g and a volume of 2cm3?

zaharov [31]

m= 60g = 60/1000 Kg = 0.06 Kg v = 2cm3 = 2 * (0.01^3) m3 = 2 *10^-6 m3 Density= m/v = 6 * 10^-2 / 2 *10^-6 = 3 *10^4 Kg/m3
