A shark is swimming at 10 m/s west when it spots some floating bait caught in some seaweed straight ahead. After 10 s, and trave

ling at a velocity of 15 m/s, the shark reaches the bait. What was the shark's average acceleration? A. 0.5 m/s² B. 0.5 m/s² east C. 0.5 m/s² west D. 10 m/s²

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The average acceleration is </u><u>0.5 m/s² west</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

As we know that

Acceleration =  

Putting the values

Acceleration =

Acceleration = 0.5

Since the shark was moving in west so the Acceleration will be in west too

Answer:

C. 0.5 m/s² west

Explanation:

The shark average acceleration is given by the following equation:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where:

u = 10 m/s west is the initial velocity of the shark

v = 15 m/s west is the final velocity

t = 10 s is the time taken

Plugging numbers into the formula, we find

a=\frac{15 m/s-10 m/s}{10 s}=0.5 m/s^2

and the direction is west, because the shark speeds up in the same direction of the initial velocity, so the acceleration is positive and therefore in the same direction.

Three Small Identical Balls Have Charges -3 Times 10^-12 C, 8 Times 10^12 C And 4 Times 10^-12 C Respectively. They Are Brought
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The charge in each ball will be 3 * 10^-12 C

Explanation:

(Assuming the correct charge of the second ball is 8 * 10^-12)

When the balls are brought in contact, all the charges are split evenly among then.

So first we need to find the total charge combined:

(-3 * 10^-12) + (8 * 10^-12) + (4 * 10^-12) = 9 * 10^-12 C

Then, when the balls are separated, each ball will have one third of the total charge, so in the end they will have the same charge:

(9 * 10^-12) / 3 = 3 * 10^-12 C

So the charge in each ball will be 3 * 10^-12 C

Answer:

Bowling Ball: weight on Earth = 49 N

Textbook: Mass = 2 kg; weight on the moon = 3.2 N

Large dog: weight on Earth = 490 N; weight on the moon = 80 N

Law of Universal Gravitation: F_{G}=\frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}

F_{G} = gravitational force (Newtons/N)

<em>G</em> = gravitational constant, 6.67430 × 10¹¹ \frac{N*m^{2}}{kg^{2}}

<em>m</em>₁ and <em>m</em>₂ = masses of two objects (kilograms/kg)

<em>r</em>² = square of distance between centers of the two objects (meters/m)

Have a fantastic day!

In a standard tensile test a steel rod of 22-mm diameter is subjected to a tension force of 75kN. Knowing that v = 0.30 and E =
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

(a) Elongation of rod = 0.19732 mm

(b) Change in diameter = 0.00651 mm

Explanation:

Circular area at end of steel rod = pi * diameter^2 / 4

Area = pi * (22 * 10^-^3)/4

Area = 3.801 * 10^(-4)    meter squared

Stress = force / area

Stress = 75000 / (3.801 * 10^-4)

Stress = 197316495 Pa     OR       0.197 GPa

Modulus of elasticity = stress / strain

200 = 0.19732 / Strain

Strain = 0.0009866     (longitudinal)

(a) Strain = change in length / initial length

0.0009866 = Elongation of rod / 200

Elongation of rod = 0.19732 mm

(b) Poisson ratio = lateral strain / longitudinal strain

0.3 = lateral strain / 0.0009866

Lateral strain = 0.000296

Lateral strain = Change in diameter / original diameter

0.000296 = Change in diameter / 22

Change in diameter = 0.00651 mm

Which is an example of an unstructured activity that promotes resistance training?
aleksandrvk [35]
One possible unstructured activity that promotes resistance training would be climbing playground equimpent - A. 

This is by nature a unstructured ctivity. Furthermore, it promotes resistance training because you're forced to move and pull and push yourself.
