Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Speed = (1,000 meters / 8.6 minutes) x (1 minute / 60 seconds) = 1.94 m/s

Sergei tees off on a stationary hockey puck using his most powerful slap shot. If he can exert a force of 250 N on the 500 gram
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer: velocity = 50m/s

Distance moved=5m

Explanation:

Using the formula Ft=Mv i.e impulse= momentum

Where F= force ,t= time, M= mass, v = velocity

In this case we need to find v,

F,t,M are all given in the question.

Therefore, substituting the values we have

250N×0.1s=0.5kg×v. Mass=500g= 0.5kg

v=25/0.5= 50m/s

The distance the puck will move when it is on his stick.

D= Velocity × time

D=50m/s × 0.1s

D=5m

Goodluck...

A submarine dives 185.0 m at an angle of 15.0◦ below the horizontal. What is the horizontal component of the submarine’s displac
stepan [7]

Answer:

Horizontal component, d_x=178.69\ m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Displacement of the submarine, d = 185 m

It is at an angle of 15 degrees below the horizontal. We need to find the horizontal component of the submarine's displacement. It is given by :

d_x=d\ cos\theta

Substituting the values in above equation as :

d_x=185\times \ cos(15)

d_x=178.69\ m

So, the horizontal component of the submarine’s displacement is 178.69 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
