A sky diver jumps from a reasonable height above the ground. The air resistance she experiences is proportional to her velocity,

and the constant of proportionality is k = 0.19. It can be shown that the downward velocity of the sky diver at time t is given by v(t) = A(1 − e^-kt) where t is measured in seconds and v(t) is measured in feet per second (ft/s). Suppose A = 64.
(a) Find the initial velocity of the sky diver.
(b) Find the velocity after 5 s and after 15 s. (Round your answers to one decimal place.) ...?

The initial velocity of the sky diver would be t=0. So put that into the equation:

<span>v(0)=64(1−<span>e<span>(−0.19)(0)</span></span>)

and for b it will be
</span><span>(5)=64(1−<span>e<span>(−0.19)(5)</span></span>)</span><span>, and likewise for t=15. You just need to throw it in a calculator.</span>

Why do you think the temperature does not change much during a phase change? If possible, discuss your answer with your classmat
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The fact is that there exists no temperature change until a phase change is complete. That is to say, during a phase change, the energy that will be supplied is used only to separate the molecules. There is no part of it is used to increase the kinetic energy of the molecules. So its temperature will not rise, not really, since the kinetic energy of the molecules remains the same. Also, it should be noted that the average kinetic energy of the molecules does not change at the moment that melting occurs, thus the temperature of the molecules does not change.

A conducting rod (length = 2.0 m) spins at a constant rate of 2.0 revolutions per second about an axis that is perpendicular to
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

0.050V

Explanation:

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to the potential between two objects that have a magnetic field, this concept is represented in the equation.

\int dV = \int_{0}^{l/2} Bv (dl)

Where,

v= tangencial velocity

B = Magnetic Field

We know for definition that,

v= l\omega

Where,

L = length

\omega = Angular velocity

We can replace this values in our first equation then,

\int dV = \int_{0}^{l/2} B (l\omega) (dl)

Integrating we have,

V = \frac{1}{8} Bl^2 \omega

Replacing the values,

V= \frac{1}{8} (8*10^{-3})(12.56)(4)

V = 0.050V

Therefore the potential difference between the  center of the rod and the other rod is 0.050V

The terminals of a 0.70 Vwatch battery are connected by a 80.0-m-long gold wire with a diameter of 0.200 mm What is the current
Komok [63]

Answer:

I=0.047A

Explanation:

Let's use Ohm's law:

V=IR  

or

I=\frac{V}{R}   (1)

Where:

V=Voltage\\I=Current\\R=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}Resistance

We know the value of the voltage V, so we need to find the value of R in order to find I. Fortunately there is a relation between the resistivity of a conductor and its electrical resistance given by:

R=\rho*\frac{l}{A}    (2)

Where:

R=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}Resistance\\l=Length\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}conductor=80m\\A=Cross\hspace{2 mm}sectional\hspace{2 mm}area\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}conductor=1.256637061*10^{-7} \\\rho=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}resistivity\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}material=2.35*10^{-8}

Keep in mind that the electrical resistivity of the gold is a known constant which is \rho_g_o_l_d=2.35*10^{-8} and the cross sectional area of the conductor is calculated as:

A=\pi *(r^{2})=\pi  *(0.0002m)^{2} =1.256637061*10^{-7} m^{2}

Because we have a wire in this case, so we assume a cylindrical geometry.

Now replacing our data in (2)

R=(2.35*10^{-8})*\frac{80}{1.256637061*10^{-7} }  =14.96056465\Omega

Finally, we know R and V, so replacing these values in (1) we will be able to find the current:

I=\frac{0.7}{14.96056465}\approx0.047A

In many cartoon shows, a character runs of a cliff, realizes his predicament and lets out a scream. He continues to scream as he
Amanda [17]

Answer:D

Explanation:

When the character falls off from cliff he moves away from the observer as he falls down and hence the frequency heard by observer lowers as he falls.

Therefore the pitch of the sound is lower than the original sound and decreasing as he falls

Option D is the correct choice

A 72-kg man stands on a spring scale in an elevator. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

During the first .8 s , the elevator is under acceleration . It starts from initial velocity u = 0 , final velocity v = 1.2 m /s , time = .8 s

v = u + at

1.2 = 0 +  .8 a

a = 1.2 / .8

= 1.5 m /s²

During the acceleration in upward direction , let reaction force of ground on man be R .

Net force on man = R - mg

Applying Newton's 2 nd law

R - mg = ma

R = m ( g + a )

= 72 ( 9.8 + 1.5 )

= 813.6 N .

This reaction force will be measured by spring scale , so reading of spring scale will be 813.6 N .
