PLZ ANSWER ASAP IF YOU KNOW THIS...At the county fair, Carrie and Sam climbed up on the carousel horses. Around and around they

went; the horses also bobbed up and down. When they got off of the carousel, Carrie told Sam they had been accelerating during their ride. Sam disagreed; they had been moving at a constant speed. Whose response is fully correct, and why?
A) Carrie is, because the carousel changed speed when it started and stopped. B) Sam is, because the horses never moved from their position on the carousel. C) Carrie is, because velocity includes speed plus direction, and both changed. D) Sam is, they did not accelerate since their speed remained constant for the ride.

For exercise, an athlete lifts a barbell that weighs 400 N from the ground to a height of 2.0 m in a time of 1.6 s. Assume the e
Sati [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

(ΔK + ΔUg + ΔUs + ΔEch + ΔEth = W)

ΔK is increase in kinetic energy . As the athelete is lifting the barbell at constant speed change in kinetic energy is zero .

ΔK = 0

ΔUg  is change in potential energy . It will be positive as weight is being lifted so its potential energy is increasing .

ΔUg = positive

ΔUs is change in the potential energy of sportsperson . It is zero since there is no change in the height of athlete .

ΔUs = 0

ΔEth is change in the energy of earth . Here earth is doing negative work . It is so because it is exerting force downwards and displacement is upwards . Hence it is doing negative work . Hence

ΔEth = negative .

b )

work done by athlete

= 400 x 2 = 800 J

energy output = 800 J

c )

It is 25% of metabolic energy output of his body

so metalic energy output of body

= 4x 800 J .

3200 J

power = energy output / time

= 3200 / 1.6

= 2000 W .

d )

1 ) Since he is doing same amount of work , his metabolic energy output is same as that in earlier case .

2 ) Since he is doing the same exercise in less time so his power is increased . Hence in the second day his power is more .

Ten identical steel wires have equal lengths L and equal "spring constants" k. The wires are connected end to end so that the re
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

K_{system} = \frac{k}{10}

Explanation:

When the springs are connected end to end, it means they are connected in series. When the springs are connected in series, the stress applied to the system gets applied to each of the springs without any change in magnitude while the strain of the system is the sum total of strains of each spring. The spring constant of the resultant system is given as,

\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{K_{1}})+(\frac{1}{K_{2}})+(\frac{1}{K_{3}})+ (\frac{1}{K_{4}})+.....+(\frac{1}{K_{n}})

Here, n = 10

Spring constant of each spring = k

Thus,

\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{K_{1}})+(\frac{1}{K_{2}})+(\frac{1}{K_{3}})+ (\frac{1}{K_{4}})+.....+(\frac{1}{K_{10}})

\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})

\frac{1}{K_{system}} = \frac{10}{k}

K_{system} = \frac{k}{10}

A 3.04 kg particle is located on the x-axis at xm = −8 m, and a 5.61 kg particle is on the x-axis at xM = 3.56 m. Find the coord
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

center of mass = −0.50 m

Explanation:

given data

mass m1 = 3.04 kg

distance xm = -8 m

mass m2 = 5.61 kg

distance xM = 3.56 m

solution

we get here center of mass for n mass of system that is express as

center of mass = \frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2......m_nx_n}{m_1+m_2...m_n}     ......................1

but we have only 2 particle system so we will get

center of mass = \frac{m1 \times xm+m2 \times xM}{m1+m2}      .................2

put here value and we will get

center of mass = \frac{3.04 \times (-8 )+5.61 \times 3.56}{3.04 + 5.61}

solve it we will get

center of mass = −0.50 m

If the speed of light in a substance is 2.26 x 10^8 m/s, what is the index of refraction of that substance?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

1.33

Explanation:

speed of light in vacuum, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

speed of light in medium, v = 2.26 x 10^8 m/s

The refractive index of the medium is given by

μ = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium

μ = (3 x 10^8) / (2.26 x 10^8)

μ = 1.33
