In some amazing situations, people have survived falling large distances when the surface they land on is soft enough. During a

traverse of Eiger's infamous Nordvand, mountaineer Carlos Ragone's rock anchor gave way and he plummeted 515 feet to land in snow. Amazingly, he suffered only a few bruises and a wrenched shoulder. Assuming that his impact left a hole in the snow 3.5 ft deep, estimate his average acceleration as he slowed to a stop (that is while he was impacting the snow). Pick a coordinate system where down is positive.

What are 5 differences between Spring Tides and Neap Tides?
ad-work [718]

Spring Tides are formed by the constructive interference of bulges created by the moon and sun. Spring Tides occur when the Sun, Moon and the Earth are aligned. Neap Tides are formed by the destructive interference created by the moon and sun. Neap tides occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth align to make a right angle.

A typical cell has a membrane potential of -70 , meaning that the potential inside the cell is 70 less than the potential outsid
Oxana [17]

Answer:

energy is stored is 2.2 × 10⁻¹³ J

Explanation:

The capacitance  of the cell is given with the expression

C = (KE₀A) / d

k is the dielectric constant, A is the area of the cell, d is the thickness of the cell.

Now given that; the diameter is 50,

Area A = 4πR²

A = 4π × ( 25 × 10⁻⁶ m)²

A = 7850×10⁻¹² m²

our capacitance C = (KE₀A) / d

C = [9 ( 8.85 × 10⁻¹² C²/N.m²  × 7850×10⁻¹² m² )] / 7×10⁻⁹ m

C = 8.93 × 10⁻¹¹ F

Now Energy stored

E = 1/2 × CV²

E = 1/2 × (8.93 × 10⁻¹¹ F) × ( 70 × 10⁻³ V)²

E = 2.2 × 10⁻¹³ J

Therefore energy is stored is 2.2 × 10⁻¹³ J

1. If a model train car with a momentum of 12 kg•m/s collides with a 2 kg model train car that is not moving, what is the total
wariber [46]

Answer:

P_{f} = 12 \ kg.m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Momentum of moving model train, P_{1} = 12 \ kg.m/s

Mass of the stationary model train, m = 2 \ kg

Initial speed of the stationary model train, v = 0

Assume there is no external force is acting on the given train system.

In this case, the total linear momentum of the trains would be conserved.

Let the final linear momentum of the trains be P_{f}.

Thus,

P_{i} = P_{f}

P_{1} + P_{2} = P_{f}

P_{1} + mv = P_{f}

12 + 2 \times 0 = P_{f}

\Rightarrow \ P_{f} = 12 \ kg.m/s.

A sound source producing 1.00 kHz waves moves toward a stationary listener at one-half the speed of sound.
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

2000Hz and 1500Hz

Explanation:

Using

a) f = f0((c+vr)/(c+vs))

=>>> f0((c)/(c-0.5c))

=>>>1000/0.5 = 2000Hz

b) f = f0((c+vr)/(c+vs))

=>>>f0((c+0.5c)/(c))

=>>>>1000 x 1.5 = 1500Hz

An ideal Carnot refrigerator with a performance coefficient (COP) of 2.1 cools items inside of it to 5.0° C. What is the high te
otez555 [7]

Answer:

the high temperature needed to operate this refrigerator is C) 137.4° C

Explanation:

Hello!

The carnot refrigeration cycle is one in which a machine absorbs heat from an enclosure and expels it to the surroundings, the equation that defines the COP performance coefficient for this cycle is:

COP=\frac{T1}{T2-T1}

COP=performance coefficient =2.1

T1=  Low temperature

T2=high temperature

Now use algebra to find the high temperature

COP=\frac{T1}{T2-T1}\\(T2-T1)=\frac{T1}{COP}\\T2=\frac{T1}{COP}+T1\\T2=T1(\frac{1}{COP} +1)

If we replace the values:

note = remember that the temperature must be in absolute units, for which we must add 273.15 to the low temperature to find the temperature in Kelvin

T1 = 5 + 273.15 = 278.15K

T2=278.15(\frac{1}{2.1} +1)=410.60k

In celsius

T2=410.60-273.15=137.4° C

the high temperature needed to operate this refrigerator is C) 137.4° C
