We can only see a small part of a electromatic spectrum . We see visible light even though their are many lights we can't see like infrared light.

Which of the following is the best definition of gravity?

IRISSAK [1]

In physics, gravity is the natural force that causes things to fall toward the earth. The noun gravity can also mean seriousness or solemnity. Someone who conducts themselves with an air of gravity is someone who takes what they are doing seriously.

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 62.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr

slava [35]

Answer:

69.68 N

Explanation:

Work done is equal to change in kinetic energy

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

W = $F_{total} .d$

where m = mass of the sprinter

vf = final velocity

vi = initial velocity

W = workdone

kf = final kinetic energy

ki = initial kinetic energy

d = distance traveled

Ftotal = total force

vf = 8m/s

vi= 2m/s

d = 25m

m = 60kg

inserting parameters to get:

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

$F_{total} .d =\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

$F_{total} = \frac{\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}}{d}$

$F_{total=} \frac{\frac{1}{2} X 62 X6^{2} -\frac{1}{2} X 62 X2^{2} }{25}$

= 39.7

we know that the force the sprinter exerted F sprinter, the force of the headwind Fwind = 30N

$F_{sprinter} = F_{total} + F_{wind} = 39.7 + 30 = 69.68 N$

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant

Elena L [17]

Answer:

19 m/s

Explanation:

The complete question requires the final speed to be calculated.

Velocity is the rate and direction at which an object moves. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time and can be calculated by the difference in velocity over a given time.

For this question, first the unknown acceleration must be calculated and used to determine the final velocity

Step 1: Calculate the acceleration

$a=\frac{v_{2}-v{1}}{t_{1}}$
