A 70.0 kg sprinter starts a race with an acceleration of 2.00 m/s2. If the sprinter accelerates at that rate for 29 m, and then

maintains that velocity for the remainder of the 100 m dash, what will be his time (in s) for the race?

Answer:

t = 12.82s

Explanation:

F = m×a

  = (70)×(2)

  = 140 N

during the acceleration, the sprinter cover d = 29 m with time:

d = 1/2×at

29 = 1/2×(2)×t^2

t^2 = 29s

t = 5.39s

and attains the velocity of:

v = a×t

  = 2×5.39

  = 10.77 m/s

Then,to cover the last x = 80 m with a speed of 10.77 m/s in time:

t = x/v

 = 80/10.77

 = 7.43s

Therefore, it will take the sprinter 7.43 + 5.39 = 12.82s

State two uses of high specific heat of water​
Nitella [24]
  • It helps in regulating extremes in the environment.
  • It can be used as a car radiators.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The amount of heat needed to raise a certain amount of temperature to the water is known as the specific heat of the water. For one gram of water to increase 1 degree celsius, water needs to absorb 4.184 J of heat.

Some of the uses of high specific heat of water are as follows,

  • The temperature of the water will remain the same from day to night in ponds or sea. During day time, the hot air from the sea or pond rises while the cool air from the sea moves to take its place. During the night, the hot air from the land moves to take its place, giving rise to a land breeze and thus maintaining the environment.
  • Another example, When water is circulated throughout an engine, heat will get absorbed. This water is pumped to a radiator and then disposed to the surrounding air.

What does the ideal gas law allow a scientist to calculate that the other gas laws do not?
Anvisha [2.4K]

The ideal gas law allows a scientist to calculate the number of moles that the other gas laws do not. The ideal gas law is given as

P V = n RT

rearranging the equation by dividing both side by "RT", we get

PV/(RT) = nRT/(RT)

n = PV/(RT)

inserting the values of pressure, volume and temperature, we get number of moles.

Svetradugi [14.3K]
I’m not sure if its correct but I think it’s focal Ray point


For concave mirrors, some generalizations can be made to simplify ray construction. They are: An incident ray traveling parallel to the principal axis will reflect and pass through the focal point. An incident ray traveling through the focal point will reflect and travel parallel to the principal axis.
