Henrietta is going off to her physics class, jogging down the sidewalk at a speed of 2.70 m/s. Her husband Bruce suddenly realiz

es that she left in such a hurry that she forgot her lunch of bagels, so he runs to the window of their apartment, which is a height 36.5 m above the street level and directly above the sidewalk, to throw them to her. Bruce throws them horizontally at a time 4.00 s after Henrietta has passed below the window, and she catches them on the run. You can ignore air resistance. Wit what initial speed must Bruce throw the bagels so Henrietta can catch them just before they hit the ground? Where is Henrietta when she catches the bagels?

Answer:

The velocity is v  =  6.66 \  m/s

Henrietta is at distance s=  18.17 \  m from the under the window

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed of Henrietta is v=  2.70 \ m/s

The height of the window from the ground is h  =  36.5 \  m

Generally the time taken for the lunch to reach the ground assuming it fell directly under the window is

t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  h }{g} }

=> t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  36.5 }{9,8} }

=> t  =  2.73 \  s

Generally the time taken for the lunch to reach Henrietta is mathematically represented as

T =  t +  t_1

Here t_1 is the time duration that elapsed after Henrietta has passed below the window the value is given as 4 s

Now

T = 2.73  +  4

=> T = 6.73 \  s

Generally the distance covered by Henrietta before catching her lunch is

s=  v  *  T

=> s=  2.70  * 6.73

=> s=  18.17 \  m

Generally the speed with which Bruce threw her lunch is mathematically represented as

v  =  \frac{18.17}{2.73}

v  =  6.66 \  m/s

a parallel circuit is sometimes called a because the current splits up among all the resistors in the parallel circuit
Ahat [919]
A parallel circuit is sometimes called a current divider because current splits up among all the resistors in the parallel circuit. In addition, the current through the branches is inversely proportional to the resistance of the branch. If the resistance in each branch is kept constant but the voltage is decreased, the current will decrease.

Consider the same roller coaster. It starts at a height of 40.0 m but once released, it can only reach a height of 25.0 m above
poizon [28]

Answer:

The magnitude of the frictional force between the car and the track is 367.763 N.

Explanation:

The roller coster has an initial gravitational potential energy, which is partially dissipated by friction and final gravitational potential energy is less. According to the Principle of Energy Conservation and Work-Energy Theorem, the motion of roller coster is represented by the following expression:

U_{g,1} = U_{g,2} + W_{dis}

Where:

U_{g,1}, U_{g,2} - Initial and final gravitational potential energy, measured in joules.

W_{dis} - Dissipated work due to friction, measured in joules.

Gravitational potential energy is described by the following formula:

U = m \cdot g \cdot y

Where:

m - Mass, measured in kilograms.

g - Gravitational constant, measured in meters per square second.

y - Height with respect to reference point, measured in meters.

In addition, dissipated work due to friction is:

W_{dis} = f \cdot \Delta s

Where:

f - Friction force, measured in newtons.

\Delta s - Travelled distance, measured in meters.

Now, the energy equation is expanded and frictional force is cleared:

m \cdot g \cdot (y_{1} - y_{2}) = f\cdot \Delta s

f = \frac{m \cdot g \cdot (y_{1}-y_{2})}{\Delta s}

If m = 1000\,kg, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, y_{1} = 40\,m, y_{2} = 25\,m and \Delta s = 400\,m, then:

f = \frac{(1000\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (40\,m-25\,m)}{400\,m}

f = 367.763\,N

The magnitude of the frictional force between the car and the track is 367.763 N.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

An organized set of investigation procedures is called a scientific method.

There are five steps of the scientific method for an experiment.

Step 1: Make a question

Step 2: Do some research for that question.

Step 3: Hypothesis ( a guess what might happen during the experiment)

Step 4: Test and collect data

Step 5: Conclusion ( what you learned from the experiment)
