Answer:

The height jumped by the sprinter is 5.10 meters.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the sprinter, v = 10 m/s

We need to find the height jumped by the sprinter his or her kinetic energy gets converted into upward motion. It can be calculated using conservation of energy as :

$mv^2=mgh$

$h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}$

g is the acceleration due to gravity

$h=\dfrac{(10)^2}{2\times 9.8}$

h = 5.10 meters

So, the height jumped by the sprinter is 5.10 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

What happens to the water particles in a wave?

lys-0071 [83]

Answer: waves transport energy, not water. As a wave crest passes, the water particles move in circular paths. The movement of the floating inner tube is simulacra to the movement of the water particles. Water particles rise as a wave crest approaches.

220V is applied to two different conductors made of the same material. One conductor is twice as long and twice as thick as the

ollegr [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

For calculating resistance of a conductor , the formula is

R = ρ l / A , ρ is specific resistance , l is length and A is cross sectional area of wire.

For first wire length is l₁ , area is A₁ resistance is R₁, for second resistance is R₂ , length is l₂ and area is A₂

Given , l₁ = 2l₂ , A₁ = 4A₂ , area is proportional to square of thickness.

R₁ / R₂ = I₁A₂ / I₂A₁

= 2l₂ x A₁ / 4 I₂A₁

= 1 / 2

2R₁ = R₂

Power = V² / R

Ratio of power = (V² / R₁) x (R₂ / V²)

= R₂ / R₁

= 2 .

A child slides down a hill on a toboggan with acceleration of 1.8 m/s2. if she starts from rest, how far has she traveled in:

Stells [14]

A child slides down a hill on a toboggan with acceleration of 1.8 m/s2. if she starts from rest, how far has she traveled in: 2 seconds

Answer:

2.4 m

Explanation:

From the question above,

Applying equation of motion,

s = ut+at²/2....................... Equation 1

Where t = time, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.

make s the subject of the equation,

Given: a = 1.8 m/s², t = 2 seconds, u = 0 m/s (from rest)

Substitute these value into equation 1

s = 0(2)+1.8(2²)/2

s = 1.2(4)/2

s = 2.4 m.

Hence she has traveled 2.4 m

A closed-end organ pipe is used to produce a mixture of sounds. The third and fifth harmonics in the mixture have frequencies of

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

$F_1=366.67Hz$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frequency of 3rd harmonics $F_3=1100$

Frequency of 5th harmonics $F_3=1833$

Generally the equation for Wavelength at 3rd Harmonics is mathematically given by

$\lambda_3=\frac{4}{3}l$

Therefore

$F_3=\frac{3v}{4l}$

Generally the equation for Wavelength at 1st Harmonics is mathematically given by

$\lambda_1=\frac{4}{1}l$

Therefore

$F_1=\frac{v}{4l}$

Generally the equation for the frequency of the first harmonic is mathematically given by

$F_1=\frac{F_3}{3}$

$F_1=\frac{1100}{3}$

$F_1=366.67Hz$

Rectangular plate has a voltage of +180V and plate to the first plate) has a 'voltage of -5V. Determie another rectangular plate

3241004551 [841]

For a Rectangular plate has a voltage of +180V and a 'voltage of -5V. , the second plate has the Electric field mathematically given as

E=21.5*10^3v/m

<h3>What is the field strength?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the Electric field is mathematically given as

E=v/d

Where

v={180-(-5)}v

v=185v

Therefore

E=185/8.6*10^{-3}

E=21.5*10^3v/m

In conclusion, Electric field

E=21.5*10^3v/m
