A 60.0 kg girl stands up on a stationary floating raft and decides to go into shore. She dives off the 180 kg floating raft with

a velocity of 4.0 m/s [W]. Ignore the substantial friction real objects in water experience.
A) What is the momentum of the girl as she is diving?
B) What is the momentum of raft as the girl is diving?
C) What is the final speed of the raft just after the girl dives?

Momentum, p = m.v
m of the girl = 60.0 kg
m of the boat = 180 kg
v of the girl = 4.0 m/s

A) Momentum of the girl as she is diving:
p = m.v = 60.0 kg * 4.0 m/s = 24.0 N/s

B) momentum of the raft = - momentum of the girl = -24.0 N/s

C) speed of the raft

p = m.v ; v = p/m = 24.0N/s / 180 kg = -0.13 m/s [i.e. in the opposite direction of the girl's velocity]

Answer:

1. telescope

2.

f =  \frac{r}{2}

f =  \frac{r}{2}f- focal length

f =  \frac{r}{2}f- focal length r- the radius of curvature of the mirror

\frac{1}{f}  =   \frac{1}{p}  +  \frac{1}{l}

p-the distance of the object from the vertex of the mirror

l-the distance of the figure from the vertex of the mirror

Find the acceleration produced.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

0.67m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of toy  = 1.2kg

Force applied = 0.8N

Unknown:

Acceleration   = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law of motion;

      Force  = mass x acceleration

Now,

      Acceleration = \frac{Force}{mass}

     Acceleration  = \frac{0.8}{1.2}   = 0.67m/s²

A generator uses a coil that has 100 turns and a 0.50-T magnetic field. The frequency of this generator is 60.0 Hz, and its emf
lana [24]

Answer:

38 m

Explanation:

Number of turns=N=100

Magnetic field=B=0.50 T

Frequency of the generator=f=60 Hz

Rms value of emf=E_{rms}=120 V

We have to find the length of the wire from which the coil is made.

Peak value of emf=E_0=E_{rms}\sqrt 2=120\times \sqrt 2=169.7 V

Length of wire=4\sqrt{\frac{NE_0}{2\pi fB}}

Substitute the values

Length of wire=4\times \sqrt{\frac{169.7\times 100}{0.50\times 2\pi\times 60}}

Length of wire=38 m

Hence, the length of wire from which the coil is made=38 m

A machine is rolling a metal cylinder under pressure. The radius of the cylinder is decreasing at a constant rate of 0.05 inches
Luden [163]
Yes, the volume of the cylinder will remain constant. As the radius decreases, the height will increase to make sure that the volume is kept the same.
We have been given a value of dr/dt and are required to find dh/dt
Because the volume is constant, we can plug it into the formula for the volume of the cylinder and rearrange it to make h the subject:
128 = πr²h
h = 128/πr²
Now we differentiate both sides:
dh/dr = -256/πr³
Applying the chain rule:
dh/dt = dh/dr x dr/dt
dh/dt = (-256/πr³) x -0.05
dh/dt = 64/5πr³; substituting the value of r
dh/dt = 64/5π(1.5)³
dh/dt = 1.21 in/sec

In some cases fixture wires may be used for
zalisa [80]

You can use fixture wires: For installation in luminaires where they are enclosed and protected and not subject to bending and twisting and also can be used to connect luminaires to their branch circuit conductors.

<h3>What are some uses of fixture wires?</h3>

Fixture wires are flexible conductors that are used for wiring fixtures and control circuits. There are some special uses and requirements for fixture wires and no fixture can be smaller than 18 AWG

In modern fixtures, neutral wire is white and the hot wire is red or black. In some types of fixtures, both wires will be of the same color.
