Some kids are playing by rolling a skateboard across level ground beside a 0.75 m high wall. The goal is to drop from the wall v

ertically downward onto the skateboard as it passes by. A 45 kg kid manages to land on the 4.5 kg skateboard as it is passing by at 8 m/s, and they move off together horizontally. If the kid is able to stay on, what will be the speed of the kid and skateboard together

Answer:

The speed of the kid and the skateboard together is 0.723 m/s

Explanation:

Let the mass of the kid be m_{k} = 45 kg

Let the mass of the skateboard be m_{s} = 4,5 kg

The initial speed of the skateboard, v_{s} = 8 m/s

The initial horizontal speed of the boy as he jumps on the skateboard, v_{k} = 0 m/s

Let the speed of the kid and the skateboard together be v

According to the principle of conservation of momentum:

m_{k} v_{k} + m_{s} v_{s} = (m_{k} + m_{s}) v

Substituting the appropriate values into  the given equation

(45*0) + (4.5*8) = (45 + 4.8) v

36 = 49.8 v

v = 36/49.8

v = 0.723 m/s

An object is moving with a constant velocity of 278 m/s. How long will it take it to travel 7500 m, using the formula Delta X=Vt
rusak2 [61]
If the velocity is constant then the acceleration of the object is zero.
a=0 (m/s^2)
Thus when we apply the equation
\Delta X=vt+(at^2/2)
It remains
\Delta X =vt
or equivalent
t=(\Delta X/v) =7500/278 =26.98 (seconds)

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Explanation:

we know that half life of an element is

T=0.693/λ

where λ is decay constant in order to find decay constant

λ=0.693/T

λ=0.693/8.04

λ=0.086

The angle between the axes of two polarizing filters is 45.0^\circ45.0 ​∘ ​​ . By how much does the second filter reduce the int
suter [353]

Answer

given,                                                                      

angle between two polarizing filters = 45°

filter reduce intensity = ?                          

a) I = I₀ Cos² θ                                

here θ = 45⁰                                

I = \dfrac{I_0}{2}                      

intensity of the light is reduced by 0.500

correct answer from the given option D

b) direction of the polarization                    

                        θ = 45°
