Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the football player, m = 92 kg

Velocity of player, v = 5 m/s

Time taken, t = 10 s

(1) We need to find the original kinetic energy of the player. It is given by :

k=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

k=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (92\ kg)\times (5\ m/s)^2

k = 1150  J

In two significant figure, k=1.2\times 10^3\ J

(2) We know that work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy. Work done per unit time is called power of the player. We need to find the average power required to stop him. So, his final velocity v = 0

i.e. P=\dfrac{W}{t}=\dfrac{\Delta K}{t}

P=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}\times (92\ kg)\times (5\ m/s)^2}{10\ s}

P = 115 watts

In two significant figures, P=1.2\times 10^2\ Watts

Hence, this is the required solution.

Determine the value of the resultant and its location from O.<br>see attach image.​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the x direction the force will be

½(-w₀)L/2 = -¼w₀L  

acting ⅔(L/2) = L/3 below the x axis.

In the y direction the force will be

½(-w₀)L + ½w₀L/2 = -¼w₀L  

the magnitude of the resultant will be

F = w₀L  √((-¼)² + (-¼)²) = w₀L√⅛

in the direction

θ = arctan(-¼w₀L / -¼w₀L) = 225°

to find the distance, we balance moments

(w₀L√⅛)[d] = ½(w₀)L[⅔L] + ¼w₀L[⅔L/2] - ¼w₀L[L - ⅓L/2]

     (√⅛)[d] = ½         [⅔L] + ¼      [⅔L/2] - ¼      [L - ⅓L/2]

     (√⅛)[d] = ½[⅔L] + ¼[⅔L/2] - ¼[L - ⅓L/2]

     (√⅛)[d] =      ⅓L  +    ⅟₁₂L     -  ¼L + ⅟₂₄L  

     (√⅛)[d] = 5L/24

               d = 5L/24 / (√⅛)

               d = 5√⅛L/3

<span>Visible satellite images are like photos which are dependent on visible light from the sun so they work best during the day. The sensor works by detecting radiation within the range that wavelength is visible. Because of this, the rays is usually seen as reaching earth from the East. </span>
