A swimmer swims 1000 m in the pool in 8.6 minutes. What was the average speed of the swimmer in m/s?

2 answers:

6 0

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

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

What are possible formulas for impulse? Check all that apply. J = Fdeltat J = StartFraction force over change in time EndFractio

Alex

<u>The possible formulas for impulse are as follows:</u>

J = FΔt

J = mΔv

J = Δp

Answer: Option A, E and F

<u>Explanation:</u>

The quantity which explains the consequences of a overall force acting on an object (moving force) is known as impulse. It is symbolised as J. When the average overall force acting on an object than such products are formed and in given duration than the start fraction force over change in time end fraction J = FΔt.

The impulse-momentum theorem explains that the variation in momentum of an object is same as the impulse applied to it: J = Δp J = mΔv if mass is constant J = m dv + v dm if mass changes. Logically, the impulse-momentum theorem is equivalent to Newton second laws of motion which is also called as force law.

In which situation is work not being done?

almond37 [142]

work done =W = F.d = F d cosФ (Ф is angle between force F and displacement d) If a body/object is moving on a smooth surface (friction-less surface ) .There is no force acting on that body. F=0 so W=FdcosФ= (0)dcosФ ⇒ W=0

Now if a body is facing some amount of force but under the action of force there is no displacement covered. d=0 so W =FdcosФ= F(0)cosФ ⇒W=0

example: A person is applying a force on rigid wall but wall remains at rest there is no displacement occurs in wall.

The third term upon which work done dependent is angle between force and displacement i.e Ф. If Ф=90° then W= FdcosФ= Fdcos90⇒ W=0 ( as cos 90°=0)

Star A and Star B have measured stellar parallax of 1.0 arc second and 0.75 arc second, respectively. Which star is closer? How

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Star A is closer than Star B

Explanation:

As we know that in parallax method of distance measurement the angle subtended by the star when it covers a distance of one Parsec arc length, it is known as parallax angle

Here we can say

$angle = \frac{1 Parsec}{distance}$
