Answer:

Explanation:

If Tim jogs a distance of 7.2 km to the west and then he turns south and jogs 1.4 km, the resultant displacement of Tim is calculated using the pythagoras theorem as shown;

R² = 7.2²+1.4²

R² = 51.84+1.96

R² = 53.8

R = √53.8

R = 7.33 km

Hence  the resultant of Tim's jog back to the beginning is 7.33km

What is the overall moment?
Setler79 [48]
A moment causes a rotation about or axis. If the moment is to be taken about a point due to a force F, then in order for a moment to develop, the line of action cannot pass through that point...... the total moment was zero because the moment arm was zero as well

[High Dive) above a pool of water. According to the announcer, the divers enter the water at a speed of 56 mi/h (25 m/s). (Air r
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

(a) The announcer's claim is incorrect because the divers enter at a speed of 20.4 and not 25 m/s as announced

(b)  it’s possible for a diver to enter the water with the velocity of 25 m/s if he has initial velocity of 14.4 m/s. The upward initial velocity can’t be physically attained

Explanation:

(a)

To find the final velocity V_{f} for an object traveling distance h taking the initial vertical component of velocity as V_{i} the kinematics equation is written as

V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2ah where a is acceleration

Substituting g for a where g is gravitational force value taken as 9.81

V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2gh

Since the initial velocity is zero, we can solve for final velocity by substituting figures, note that 70 ft is 21.3 m for h

V_{f}=\sqrt {(2gh)}= V_{f}=\sqrt {(2*9.81*21.3)}= 20.44275

Therefore, the divers enter with a speed of 20.4 m/s

The announcer's claim is incorrect because the divers enter at a speed of 20.4 and not 25 m/s as announced

(b)

The divers can enter water with a velocity of 25 m/s only if they have some initial velocity. Using the kinematic equation

V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2gh

Since we have final velocity of 25 m/s

V_{i}^{2}=2gh-V_{f}^{2}

V_{i}=\sqrt{(V_{f}^{2}-2gh)}

V_{i}=\sqrt{(25^{2}-2*9.81*21.3)}= 14.390761 m/s

Therefore, it’s possible for a diver to enter the water with the velocity of 25 m/5 if he has initial velocity of 14.4 m/s

In conclusion, the upward initial velocity can’t be physically attained

Three identical resistors have an equivalent resistance 15.6 ohm when they are connected in series. What is the resistance for e
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

R=5.2\ \Omega

Explanation:

In series combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :

R_{eq}=R_1+R_2+R_3+...

Let the identical resistors be R. We have, R_{eq}=15.6\ \Omega

So,

R+R+R=15.6\\\\3R=15.6\\\\R=\dfrac{15.6}{3}\\\\R=5.2\ \Omega

So, the resistance of each resistor is 5.2\ \Omega.

A 6kg sled sliding on an icy surface experiences a 6-N frictional force exerted by the ice and the air resistive force of 0.6 N.
White raven [17]

The net force on the sled is 6.6 N pointing backwards, opposite to the direction it's sliding. That's why it's slowing down, and will eventually stop.
