You are standing on a skateboard, initially at rest. a friend throws a very heavy ball towards you. you can either catch the obj

ect or deflect the object back toward your friend (such that it moves away from you with the same speed as it was originally thrown). what should you do in order to maximize your speed on the skateboard?

<span>You should deflect the ball in order to maximize your speed on the skateboard.

Since this creates a larger impulse, you want to deflect the ball. Splitting it up into catching and throwing the ball may by something you can think of deflecting the ball. First, you need to catch the ball, which in turn would push you forward with some speed. (The speed we are talking about should obviously be equal to option A, where you catch the ball). Now, throw the ball back to him since these two processes are equal to deflecting the ball. Throwing a mass away from you would cause or enable you to move even fast.</span>

"The two equations below express conservation of energy and conservation of mass for water flowing from a circular hole of radiu
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The two equations below express conservation of energy and conservation of mass for water flowing from a circular hole of radius 3 centimeters at the bottom of a cylindrical tank of radius 10 centimeters. In these equations, delta m is the mass that leaves the tank in time delta t, v is the velocity of the water flowing through the hole, and h is the height of the water in the tank at time t. g is the acceleration of gravity, which you should approximate as 1000 cm/s2.

2. A liquid that is twice as dense as water is used in a barometer. With this barometer, atmospheric pressure would push the liq
Scrat [10]

Answer:

The reason why the height for the liquid is 5.18 m is because, for constant pressure, height is inversely proportional to density.

Explanation:

We know that pressure, P = ρgh where ρ = density of material, g = 9.8 m/s and h = height.

Since density of liquid = 2 × density of water = 2 × 1000 kg/m = 2000 kg/m³

Since atmospheric pressure = 101500 N/m²,

The height of liquid for this pressure is h = P/ρg = 101500/(2000 × 9.8) = 5.18 m

For the same pressure, the height for water is h = P/ρg = 101500/(1000 × 9.8) = 10.36 m

Since pressure = constant,

P = ρgh ⇒ P/ρg = h since P and g are constant, h ∝ 1/ρ

ρ₁h₁ = ρ₂h₂

So, the reason why the height for the liquid is 5.18 m is because, for constant pressure, height is inversely proportional to density.
