What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 113m in 29s?

1 answer:

3 0

In this item, we are asked to determine the speed of the bobsled given the distance traveled and the time it takes to cover the certain distance. This can mathematically be expressed as,
speed = distance / time

Substituting the given values in this item,
speed = (113 m) / (29 s)
speed = 3.90 m/s

<em>ANSWER: 3.90 m/s</em>

A student of weight 652 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude

miskamm [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of person $W=652\ N$

At highest point Magnitude of the normal force $F=585\ N$

net force at highest point

$F_{net}=W+F_c$

where $F_c=$ centripetal force

$F_c=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$F_{net}=F_{n}=$ Normal Force

$585=652+F_c$

$F_c=-67\ N$

Negative sign shows force is in upward direction

At bottom point centripetal force is towards the bottom

$F_n=F_c+W$

$F_n=652+67$

$F_n=719\ N$

A woman holds a book by placing it between her hands such that she presses at right angles to the front and back covers. The boo

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.

The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.

Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.

To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.

W = m*g

W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]

W = 12.75 [N]

Can an argon atom undergo vibrational motion?

azamat

No. the answer to the question if can an argon atom undergo vibrational motion is no. it can not even spin either. the argon atom, or the argon is a chemical element that is the third most abundant gas in the earth's atmosphere. it is ore than twice as abundance as water vapor. Thank you for this question.
