Answer:

S_d = 5 + 3*t

S_a =  4.2*t

t = 5 / 1.2 = 4.17 s

17.514 m

Explanation:

Given:

- The initial position of Duane s_i = 5

- The speed with which Duane runs v_d = 3 m/s

- The speed with which Albert runs v_a = 4.2 m/s

Find:

a) Write an expression for Duane's position in terms of t and vduane.

b. Write an expression for Albert's position in terms of t and valbert.

c. At what time does Albert catch up to Duane?

d. How far from Albert's starting point are they when they meet?

Solution:

- The position of Duane from start is:

                     S_d = s_i + v_d*t

                     S_d = 5 + 3*t

- The position of Albert from start is:

                     S_a = s_i + v_d*t

                     S_a = 0 + 4.2*t = 4.2*t

- When Albert catches up-to Duane their positions are equal.

                     S_a = S_d

                     5 + 3*t = 4.2*t

                     1.2*t = 5

                     t = 5 / 1.2 = 4.17 s

- The distance at which they meet is governed by time t calculated in part above:

                     S_a = 4.2*(4.17) = 17.514 m

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

Data

Duane                                          Albert

d = 5 m ;  v = 3 m/s                     v = 4.2 m/s

a)                                                b)

Duane's                                      Albert's

d = 5 + (3)t                                  d = 4.2t

d = 5 + 3t

c)                            5 + 3t = 4.2t

                              4.2t - 3t = 5

                                      1.2t = 5

                                           t = 4.17 s

d)

Duane's

d= 5 + 3(4.17)

d = 17.51 m

Alberts

d = 4.2(4.17)

d = 17.51 m

A boxer can hit a heavy bag with great force. Why can't he hit a piece of tissue paper in midair with the same amount of force?
12345 [234]

Answer:

This is due to impulse

Explanation:

Impulse equal to mΔv and FΔt

You can set these equal as mΔv = FΔt

When a boxer punches a tissue, it is like punching a cushion or a pillow. The time that the hit takes is much grater than if they were to hit something solid. In addition, the change in velocity of the boxer's arm would be much greater when they hit a punching bag. In this equation, the greater the time, the less force that is needed.

1.15) What distance will 650 joules of work move a box weighing 50 newtons?​
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is 13 however make sure if they ask for a certain measurement like meter answer it by saying 13 meters.

Explanation:

This basically turns into basic algebra if you know the formula for work. The formula for work is W=F*d  

Here are the variables that you know 650J=50N*d so you need d.

All you do is divide 650J by 50N and you get a total of 13 (meters since I don't know what they want you to put it in).

Is position a base or derived quantity?
amid [387]

Position is measured in meters (m), so it is a base quantity.

<h3>What is base quantity?</h3>

A base or fundamental  quantity is a physical quantity, in which other quantities are derived from.

Example of fundamental quantities;

  • Mass
  • Length (position)
  • Time
  • Temperature
  • Amount of substance

<h3>What is a derived quantity?</h3>

Derived quantities are those quantities obtained or expressed from fundamental quantities.

Example of derived quantities;

  • Speed
  • Acceleration
  • Volume
  • Area
  • Density, etc

Thus, we can conclude that position measured in meters (m) is a base quantity.

How did Orsted discover Electromagnetism?
Liula [17]

Answer:

Hans Christian Oersted began a new scientific epoch when he discovered that electricity and magnetism are linked. He showed by experiment that an electric current flowing through a wire could move a nearby magnet. The discovery of electromagnetism set the stage for the eventual development of our modern technology-based world.
