The light waves bend as it travels from the air into the water.

This phenomenon is called refraction of light waves.

.You have always been impressed by the speed of the elevators in your apartment building. You wonder about the maximum accelerat
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

5.51 m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial scale reading = 50 kg  

assume the greatest scale reading = 78.09 kg

<u>Determine the maximum acceleration for these elevators</u>

At rest the weight is = 50 kg

Weight ( F ) = mg = 50 * 9.81 = 490.5 N<u> </u>

<u> </u>At the 10th floor weight = 78.09 kg

Weight at 10th floor ( F ) = 78.09 * 9.81 = 766.11 N

F = change in weight

Change in weight( F ) = ma = 766.11 - 490.5 (we will take the mass as the starting mass as that mass is calculated when the body is at rest)

50 * a = 275.61

Hence the maximum acceleration ( a ) = 275.61 / 50 = 5.51 m/s^2

A football player with a mass of 88 kg and a speed of 2.0 m/s collides head-on with a player from the opposing team whose mass i
Ket [755]

Answer:

Speed of another player, v₂ = 1.47 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of football player, m₁ = 88 kg

Speed of player, v₁ = 2 m/s

Mass of player of opposing team, m₂ = 120 kg

The players stick together and are at rest after the collision. It shows an example of inelastic collision. Using the conservation of linear momentum as :

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V

V is the final velocity after collision. Here, V = 0 as both players comes to rest after collision.

v_2=-\dfrac{m_1v_1}{m_2}

v_2=-\dfrac{88\ kg\times 2\ m/s}{120\ kg}

v_2=-1.47\ m/s

So, the speed of another player is 1.47 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

In which direction does a bag at rest move when a force of 20 newton's is applied from the right?
Olegator [25]

The bag moves to the left.

This is because of Newton's third law of motion that states:

For every action force on a body, there is an opposite and equal reaction force.

Thus pushing the bag from the right makes it move to the left.
