Zorn and Porsha are ice skating. Porsha has a mass of 60 kg, and Zorn has a mass of 40 kg. As they face each

algol13

Assuming the friction between the skaters and the ice is negligible, the magnitude of Porsha's acceleration is 2.8m/s².

Missing part of the question: determine the magnitude of Porsha's acceleration.

Given the data in the question;

Mass of Porsha; $m_{porsha} = 60kg$

Mass of Zorn; $m_{zorn} = 40kg$

Force of Porsha push; $F_{porsha} = 168N$

Magnitude of Porsha's acceleration; $a = \ ?$

To determine the magnitude of Porsha's acceleration, we use Newton's second laws of motion:

$F = m*a$

Where m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration.

We substitute the mass of Porsha and the force he used into the equation

$168N = 60kg * a\\\\a = \frac{168kg.m/s^2}{60kg}\\\\a = 2.8m/s^2$

Therefore, assuming the friction between the skaters and the ice is negligible, the magnitude of Porsha's acceleration is 2.8m/s².

An Olympic track runner starts from rest and has an acceleration of 2.4 m/s2 for 3.6 s, then has zero acceleration for the remai

rjkz [21]

Answer:

The runner's speed at the following times would remain 8.64 m/s.

Explanation:

Acceleration definition: Acceleration is rate of change in velocity of an object with respect to time.

In this case, after 3.6 seconds the acceleration is zero, it means that the velocity of the runner after 3.6 seconds is not changing and it will remain constant for the remainder of the race. Now, we have to find the velocity of the runner that he had after 3.6 seconds and that would be the runner's speed for the remainder of the race. For this we use first equation of motion.

First equation of motion: Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf stands for final velocity

Vi stands for initial velocity

a stands for acceleration

t stands for time

In the question, it is mentioned that the runner starts from rest so its initial velocity (Vi) will be 0 m/s.

The acceleration (a) is given as 2.4 m/s²

The time (t) is given as 3.6 s

Now put the values of Vi, a and t in first equation of motion

Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf = 0 + 2.4×3.6

Vf = 2.4×3.6

Vf = 8.64 m/s

So,the runner's speed at the following times would remain 8.64 m/s.

Part 1: Use complete sentences to explain why solar winds occur. Part 2: Give two examples in which solar winds impact Earth.

Troyanec [42]

Part 1

When the solar atmosphere accumulates a lot of magnetic energy to a point that cannot accumulate more, all that magnetic energy is suddenly released, and with it, a lot of radiation. So much, that in fact it covers all of the electromagnetic spectrum; from radio waves to gamma rays. That burst of radiation is called a solar flare. In a single solar flare the amount of radiation released is millions of times greater than all the nuclear bombs in the face if the earth exploding together. Lucky for us, most of the high-energy radiation dissipates before reaching the Earth, and the radiation that do reach us, is deflected by the Earth’s magnetic field.

Part 2

1. Not all the radiation of solar flares that reach the Earth is deflected by its magnetic field; some of them reach us and charges the upper atmosphere with ionized particles. Those particles react with the gases in the atmosphere and produce a light; that light is what we call Auroras borealis or southern nights; One the most beautiful natural spectacles in earth, who thought Auroras begin their lives as deadly solar flares.

2. Solar flares contain a lot of high-energy radiation that is extremely dangerous for our electronic devices; when they reach the Earth, they can damage sensible electronics like satellites. A very powerful solar flare could even damage all the electronic devices on the surface of the Earth.

A spaceship moves radially away from Earth with acceleration 29.4 m/s 2 (about 3g). How much time does it take for sodium street

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

doppler shift's formula for source and receiver moving away from each other:

λ'=λ°√(1+β/1-β)

Explanation:

acceleration of spaceship=α=29.4m/s²

wavelength of sodium lamp=λ°=589nm

as the spaceship is moving away from earth so wavelength of earth should increase w.r.t increasing speed until it vanishes at λ'=700nm

using doppler shift's formula:

λ'=λ°√(1+β/1-β)

putting the values:

700nm=589nm√(1+β/1-β)

after simplifying:

β=0.17

by this we can say that speed at that time is: v=0.17c

to calculate velocity at an acceleration of a=29.4m/s²

we suppose that spaceship started from rest so,

v=v₀+at

where v₀=0

so v=at

as we want to calculate t so:-

t=v/a v=0.17c ,c=3x10⁸ ,a=29.4m/s²

putting values:

=0.17(3x10⁸m/s)/29.4m/s²

t=1.73x10⁶
