A runner is training and runs past meter mark 65 and starts a stopwatch. After the runner passes meter mark 15 the stopwatch sto
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

6.25 m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters

Initial mark = 65

Final mark  = 15

time taken = 8s

Unknown:

Velocity of the runner  = ?

Solution:

Velocity is the displacement divided by time;

        Velocity  = \frac{displacement}{time}  

Displacement  = Initial mark - final mark  = 65 - 15 = 50m

Now, insert the parameters and solve;

       Velocity  = \frac{50}{8}   = 6.25m/s

What hanging mass will stretch a 3.0-m-long, 0.32 mm - diameter steel wire by 1.3 mm ? The Young's modulus of steel is 20×10^10
raketka [301]

Answer:

0.71 kg

Explanation:

L = length of the steel wire = 3.0 m

d = diameter of steel wire = 0.32 mm = 0.32 x 10⁻³ m

Area of cross-section of the steel wire is given as

A = (0.25) πd²

A = (0.25) (3.14) (0.32 x 10⁻³)²

A = 8.04 x 10⁻⁸ m²

ΔL = change in length of the wire = 1.3 mm = 1.3 x 10⁻³ m

Y = Young's modulus of steel = 20 x 10¹⁰ Nm⁻²

m = mass hanging

F = weight of the mass hanging

Young's modulus of steel is given as

Y = \frac{FL}{A\Delta L}

20\times 10^{10} = \frac{F(3)}{(8.04\times 10^{-8})(1.3\times 10^{-3})}

F = 6.968 N

Weight of the hanging mass is given as

F = mg

6.968 = m (9.8)

m = 0.71 kg

Is a nucleus that absorbs at 4.13 δ more shielded or less shielded than a nucleus that absorbs at 11.45 δ?
NeTakaya

Explanation:

A nucleus that absorbs 11.45δ is less shielded than a nucleus that absorbs at 4.13δ.

the nucleus that absorbs at 11.45δ requires weaker applied field strength to come into resonance than the nucleus that absorbs at 4.13δ.

ra1l [238]
My guess is A. depth increases because I know that the deeper you go in the ocean, the higher the water pressure is (which makes it difficult to explore).
