An 80 kilogram skier slides on waxed skis along a horizontal surface of snow at a constant velocity while pushing with his poles

. What is the horizontal component of the force pushing him forward?

From Newton's First law, if velocity is constant than the net force on the body is zero; or net force in horizontal direction is zero and net force in vertical direction is also zero.

If we assume that the there is negligible friction between waxed skies and snow, than there will be no frictional force on skies in horizontal direction and as net force in horizontal direction is zero, hence the horizontal component of the force pushing him forward is also zero.

A person observes a firework display for A safe distance of .750 km. Assuming that sound travels at 340 m/s in air what is the t
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

t = 2.2 s

Explanation:

Given that,

A person observes a firework display for A safe distance of 0.750 km.

d = 750 m

The speed of sound in air, v = 340 m/s

We need to find the between the person see and hear a firework explosion. let it is t. So, using the formula of speed.

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{750\ m}{340\ m/s}\\\\t=2.2\ s

So, the required time is 2.2 seconds.

A long, straight, horizontal wire carries a left-to-right current of 40 A. If the wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field of
Drupady [299]

Answer:

4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

We are given that

Current in wire=40 A

Magnetic field=B_1=3.5\times 10^{-5} T( vertically downward)

We have to find the resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm above the wire and 29 cm below the wire.

According to Bio-Savart law, the magnetic field exerted by the wire at distance R is given by

B_{wire}=B_2=\frac{\mu_0I}{2\pi R}

We have R=29 cm=\frac{29}{100}=0.29 m

1 m=100 cm

Substitute the values in the given formula

B_2=\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 40}{2\times \pi\times 0.29}=\frac{2\times 40\times 10^{-7}}{0.29}=2.76\times 10^{-5} T

The resultant magnetic field is given by

B=\sqrt{B^2_1+B^2_2}

Substitute the values then we get

B=\sqrt{(3.5\times 10^{-5})^2+(2.76\times 10^{-5})^2}

B=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

The resultant magnitude of magnetic field is same above and below the wire as it is at same distance.

The resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm below the wire=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Hence, the resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm above  the wire=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

if the time is taken to bring a ball to rest from a certain velocity 'v'. is reduced to half, what will be the change in the val
777dan777 [17]

The answer is C) rate of change of momentum. The answer is not initial or final momentum as the start and end points are not changing. On the other hand, the time it takes for the ball to change velocity is. This change relates to the change of momentum. Hope this helped :))
