Q1: A runner is jogging in a straight line at a steady vr= 6.8 km/hr. When the runner is L= 2.4 km from the finish line, a bird

begins flying straight from the runner to the finish line at vb= 13.6 km/hr (2 times as fast as the runner). When the bird reaches the finish line, it turns around and flies directly back to the runner. What cumulative distance does the bird travel? Even though the bird is a dodo, assume that it occupies only one point in space (a “zero” length bird), travels in a straight line, and that it can turn without loss of speed. Answer in units of km. Q2: After this first encounter, the bird then turns around and flies from the runner back to the finish line, turns around again and flies back to the runner. The bird repeats the back and forth trips until the runner reaches the finish line. How far does the bird travel from the beginning (including the distance traveled to the first encounter)? Answer in units of km.

Answer:

Q1: 3.2km

Q2: 4.8K

Explanation:

Q1:

So db is the distance of bird, and dr is the distance of runner

db = 2vr  and the distance of bird is going to be 2 times greater than the runner.

formulas: db = 2vr & db = 2dr

  1. db = 2dr
  2. L + (L - x) = 2x
  3. 2L - x = 2x
  4. 2L = 3x
  5. x = \frac{2}{3}L

Insert it in x = \frac{2}{3}L

\frac{2}{3}(2.4km) = 1.6km

Now we use formula db = 2dr

  1. db = 2L - x
  2. db = 2(2.4km) - 1.6km
  3. <u>db = 3.2km</u>

Q2:

Formulas: Vr = L /Δt & Vb = db/Δt

  1. Vr = L/ Δt ⇒ Δt = \frac{L}{Vr}
  2. \frac{2.4km}{6.8km/hr}
  3. \frac{6}{17}hr

(Km cancel each other)

  1. Vb = db/Δt ⇒ db = VbΔt
  2. 13.6km/hr(\frac{6}{17}hr )
  3. <u>4.8km</u>

(hr cancel each other)

Hope it helps you :)

A cube that has a volume of 1.00 m³ contains N distinguishable particles.
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

1 P = 0.5

2 P = 0.3

3 P = 0.01

Explanation:

The probability formula is

          P =V^N

Where P is the probability  V is the volume while N is the number of distinguishing particles

So for N = 1 and V = 0.500m^3

           P = (0.500m^3)^1\\

               = 0.5

For  N = 1 and V =  0.300m^3

           P = (0.300m^3)^1

               = 0.3

For   N = 1 and V = 0.0100m^3

     P =(0.0100m^3)^1

         = 0.01

What are electrons and how are they involved in creating and electric current?
Artist 52 [7]
Electrons are a stable sub atomic particle that has a negative charge and is found in all atoms and is the main carrier of electricity through solids.

In a metal, some of the electrons can escape from the atoms and are free to move around inside the metal. These electrons are referred to as 'conduction electrons'. 

<span>A current is a flow of charge. In metal a current is the flow of the conduction electrons through the metal. This can occur when connected to battery for example: The battery pumps the conduction electrons around the circuit. </span>

You pull with a force of 295 N on a rope that is attached to a block of mass 22 kg, and the block slides across the floor at a c
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Fnet = 0

Explanation:

  • Since the block slides across the floor at constant speed, this means that it's not accelerated.
  • According Newton's 2nd Law, if the acceleration is zero, the net force on the sliding mass must be zero.
  • This means that there must be a friction force opposing to the horizontal component of the applied force, equal in magnitude to it:

       F_{appx} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * cos 35 = 242 N  (1)

  • In the vertical direction, the block is not accelerated either, so the sum of the normal force and the vertical component of the applied force, must be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity on the block:

      F_{appy} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * sin 35 = 169 N  (2)

⇒    169 N + Fn = Fg = 216 N  (3)

  • This means that there must be a normal force equal to the difference between Fappy and Fg, as follows:
  • Fn = 216 N - 169 N = 47  N (4)
