2 answers:

8 0

On page 38 it explains that The opposition to the flow of an electric current through a body is called the electrical resistance of the body. The resistance of a body depends on several factors: l Material composing the body l Length of the body l Cross-sectional area of the body l Temperature of the body.

So the correct answer is D. bodies surrounding the body

Material composing the body, temperature of the body and the length of the body affects the electrical resistance of a body. Bodies directly surrounding the body will not affect the electrical resistance of the body. The answer is letter D.

On a touchdown attempt, 95.00 kg running back runs toward the end zone at 3.750 m/s. A 113.0 kg line-backer moving at 5.380 m/s

dsp73

Answer:

(a) 1.21 m/s

(b) 2303.33 J, 152.27 J

Explanation:

m1 = 95 kg, u1 = - 3.750 m/s, m2 = 113 kg, u2 = 5.38 m/s

(a) Let their velocity after striking is v.

By use of conservation of momentum

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m1 x u1 + m2 x u2 = (m1 + m2) x v

- 95 x 3.75 + 113 x 5.38 = (95 + 113) x v

v = ( - 356.25 + 607.94) / 208 = 1.21 m /s

(b) Kinetic energy before collision = 1/2 m1 x u1^2 + 1/2 m2 x u2^2

= 0.5 ( 95 x 3.750 x 3.750 + 113 x 5.38 x 5.38)

= 0.5 (1335.94 + 3270.7) = 2303.33 J

Kinetic energy after collision = 1/2 (m1 + m2) v^2

= 0.5 (95 + 113) x 1.21 x 1.21 = 152.27 J

44. A rescue helicopter is hovering over a person whose boat has sunk. One of the rescuers throws a life preserver straight down

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

18.4 m

Explanation:

(a)

The known variables in this problem are:

u = 1.40 m/s is the initial vertical velocity (we take downward direction as positive direction)

t = 1.8 s is the duration of the fall

a = g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

(b)

The vertical distance covered by the life preserver is given by

$d=ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

If we substitute all the values listed in part (a), we find

$d=(1.40 m/s)(1.8 s)+\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^2)(1.8 s)^2=18.4m$

One of the important waste products of photosynthesis is oxygen gas. Where does this oxygen gas come from?

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

End product of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process that plants undergo in the manufacture of their food. This is done in the presence of sunlight which is trapped by their coloring pigment called chlorophyll and reactants such as Carbon dioxide and Water.

6CO2+6H2O= C6H12O6+ 6O2

The oxygen gas which is a waste product of photosynthesis is released into the atmosphere and used by animals in respiration.

A circuit consists of a series combination of 6.50 −kΩ and 4.50 −kΩ resistors connected across a 50.0-V battery having negligibl

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Part A: 16.1 V

Part B: 20.5 V

Part C: 21.5%

Explanation:

The voltmeter is in parallel with the 4.5-kΩ resistor and the combination is in series with the 6.5-kΩ resistor. The equivalent resistance of the parallel combination is given as

$\dfrac{1}{R_E}=\dfrac{1}{4.50}+\dfrac{1}{10.0}$

$R_E=\dfrac{4.50\times10.0}{4.50+10.0} = 3.10$

Part A

The voltmeter reading is the potential difference across the parallel combination. This is found by using the voltage-divider rule.

$V_1 = \dfrac{3.10}{3.10+6.50}\times50.0 = \dfrac{3.10}{9.60}\times50.0 = 16.1 \text{ V}$

Part B

Without the voltmeter, the potential difference across the 4.5-kΩ resistor is found using the same rule as above:

$V_2 = \dfrac{4.50}{4.50+6.50}\times50.0 = \dfrac{4.50}{11.0}\times50.0 = 20.5 \text{ V}$

Part C

The error in % is given by

$\dfrac{20.5-16.1}{20.5}\times100\% = \dfrac{4.4}{20.5}\times100\% = 21.5\%$
