When Janet leaves the platform, she's moving horizontally at 1.92 m/s. We assume that there's no air resistance, and gravity has no effect on horizontal motion. There's no horizontal force acting on Janet to make her move horizontally any faster or slower than 1.92 m/s.

She's in the air for 1.1 second before she hits the water.

Moving horizontally at 1.92 m/s for 1.1 second, she sails out away from the platform

(1.92 m/s) x (1.1 sec) = <em>2.112 meters</em>

A long coaxial cable consists of an inner cylindrical conductor with radius a and an outer coaxial cylinder with inner radius b

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Part a)

$E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}$

Part b)

$E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}$

Part d)

As we know that due to induction of charge there will be same charge appear on the inner and outer surface of the cylinder but the sign of the charge must be different

On the inner side of the cylinder there will be negative charge induce on the inner surface and on the outer surface of the cylinder there will be same magnitude charge with positive sign.

Explanation:

Part a)

By Guass law we know that

$\int E. dA = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

$E. 2\pi rL = \frac{\lambda L}{\epsilon_0}$

$E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}$

Part b)

Outside the outer cylinder we will again use Guass law

$\int E. dA = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

$E. 2\pi rL = \frac{\lambda L}{\epsilon_0}$

$E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}$

Part d)

As we know that due to induction of charge there will be same charge appear on the inner and outer surface of the cylinder but the sign of the charge must be different

On the inner side of the cylinder there will be negative charge induce on the inner surface and on the outer surface of the cylinder there will be same magnitude charge with positive sign.

What is the mechanical advantage of a nail puller where you exert a force 45 cm from the pivot and the nail is 1.8 cm on the oth

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the distance of the input load (Li)from the pivot to the output load applied to the pivot(Lo)

MA = Li/Le

Given;

Li = 45cm

Lo = 1.8cm

MA = 45/1.8

MA = 25

Hence the mechanical advantage is 25

Also MA is expressed in terms of the force ratio which is the ratio of the Load to the effort applied.

MA = Load/Effort

Given

Load = 1250N

MA = 25

Effort = ?

Substitute

25 = 1250/Effort

Effort = 1250/25

Effort = 50N

Hence the minimum force exerted on the load is 50N

Copernicus and other astronomers before him thought that celestial bodies followed a _____ orbital path.

murzikaleks [220]

The correct answer is circular. Copernicus and other astronomers before him thought that celestial bodies followed a circular orbital path. Copernicus was a Polish astronomer that concluded that the sun is at rest near the center of the universe and the earth is revolving around it annually. This theory is called heliocentric.

A hockey puck is sliding across a frozen pond with an initial speed of 9.3 m/s. It comes to rest after sliding a distance of 42.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is 0.11

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed, u = 9.3 m/s

sliding distance, S = 42 m

From equation of motion we determine the acceleration;

v² = u² + 2as

0 = (9.3)² + (2x42)a

- 84a = 86.49

a = -86.49/84

|a| = 1.0296

$F_k = \mu_k N$ = ma

where;

Fk is the frictional force

μk is the coefficient of kinetic friction

N is the normal reaction = mg

μkmg = ma

μkg = a

μk = a/g

where;

g is the gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s²

μk = a/g

μk = 1.0296/9.8

μk = 0.11

Therefore, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is 0.11
