Answer:

can a fire have a shadow?

Yes it can actually.

edit:Fires can have shadows because they contain hot air and soot, and not because they contain light.

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

A shadow is basically the absence of light. Fire doesn't have a shadow cause fire is itself a source of light, so the wall or obstacle you'd be expecting it's shadow to fall on, would instead be covered by the light from the fire. Hence, fire has no shadow.

A 20.0 kg mass moving at a velocity of + 3.0 m/s is stopped by a constant force of 15.0 n. how many seconds must the force act o
slamgirl [31]
The mass is 20 kg, initial speed is 30 m/s and the final speed is 0 m/s (rest), 
while the force is 15 N
Using second newton's law of motion which states that the rate of change in momentum is directly proportional to the resultant force. Then
 Ft = MV-MU
15 t = 20 (0-3)
15t = -60
  t = -4 sec ( negative because the force is acting on opposite direction to the motion)
Therefore, the time taken is 4 seconds

Two people carry a heavy electric motor by placing it on a light board 1.80 m long. One person lifts at one end with a force of
bixtya [17]

Answer:

W=970\ N

Explanation:

When two people carry a weight placing it on a very light board then we neglect the weight of the board and the board acts like a beam with two mass placed over it and two end point supports are here provided by men.

Then balancing the forces in the vertical direction, weight of the motor is:

W=350+620

W=970\ N

These men are able to carry the motor in equilibrium condition because they have placed the motor (considering it a point mass) at a position such that the moment due to the lifting forces are equal and opposite.

Kelly Clarkson is running between the Patronas towers in Kuala Lumpur on a tightrope at a speed of 15 m/s. Kelly currently weigh
Tomtit [17]

KE = 8887.5 J

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

speed = 15 m/s

weight = 79 kg

Required

KE-Kinetic energy

Solution

Energy is the ability to do work  

Energy because its motion is expressed as Kinetic energy (KE) which can be formulated as:  

\large {\boxed {\bold {KE = \frac {1} {2} mv ^ 2}}}

Input the value :

KE = 1/2 x 79 kg x 15² m/s²

KE = 8887.5 J

For a short period of time, the frictional driving force acting on the wheels of the 2.5-Mg van is N, where t is in seconds. If
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

15.6m/s

Completed Question;

For a short period of time, the frictional driving force acting on the wheels of the 2.5-Mg van is N= 600t^2 , where t is in seconds. If the van has a speed of 20 km/h when t = 0, determine its speed when t = 5

Explanation:

Mass m = 2500kg

Speed v1 = 20km/h = 20/3.6 m/s = 5.556 m/s

To determine speed v2;

Using the principle of momentum and impulse;

mv1 + ∫₀⁵ F dt = mv2
