Answer:

4 m/s.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Distance travalled (d) = 20 m

Time (t) = 5 secs

Speed (S) =?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance moved with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed (S) = Distance (d) /time (t)

S = d/t

With the above formula, we can easily calculate the speed of the individual as follow:

Distance travalled (d) = 20 m

Time (t) = 5 secs

Speed (S) =?

S = d/t

S = 20/5

S = 4 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the individual is 4 m/s

7. A neutral aluminum rod is at rest on a foam insulating base. A negatively charged balloon is brought near one end of the rod
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

If a negatively charged balloon is brought near one end of the rod but not in direct contact, then <u>the negative charges on the balloon repel the same amount of negative charges on the end of the rod that is close to the balloon</u>, and the positive charges stay at the balloon-side of the rod. The total charge of the rod is still zero, but the distribution of the charges are now non-uniform.

A football is thrown vertically with an initial velocity of 33m/s. Calculate the velocity of the ball when it’s height increased
tatyana61 [14]

The final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Initial velocity, u = 33 m/s

Height, h = 5m

Final velocity, v = ?

According to Newton's law:

v² - u² = 2gh

where,

g is the acceleration due to gravity and

g = 9.8 m/s²

On substituting the values we get:

v^2 - (33)^2 = 2 X -9.8 X 5\\\\v^2 - 1089 = -98\\\\v^2 = 991\\\\v = 31.48 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s

Explain how tidal forces are causing Earth to slow down.
dybincka [34]

Answer: The tidal forces exerted by the moon are directly associated with the earth's rotation. Due to the strong gravitational pull of the moon, the tidal bulging appears on both the sides on earth and these are region of high tide, and there is gradual rise and fall of sea level.

Because of these tidal effect, the earth is able to rotate only once in each of the orbital period.
