What occurs when a swimmer pushes through water to swim

1 answer:

6 0

When we swim we apply force and push the water backward with the help of our hands. In response, The water pushes us forward with an equal force. Thus, in order to move forward and swim, the swimmer lushes the water backward. Newton's 3rd law of motion

An object is dropped from a height of 25 meters. At what velocity will it hit the ground?

Goryan [66]

You can use Vf^2-Vi^2 = 2ax

Vf^2 - 0 = 2(9.81)(25)

Or you can use energy

mgh = 1/2mv^2

2gh =v^2

A force is a vector quantity. What does that mean?

Inga [223]

Answer: Acceleration due to gravity

Explanation: Force, F = mg, is a vector quantity because the acceleration due to gravity, g, is a vector quantity. Explanation: F = mg Where m is the mass (in kilograms) of the object in question and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Mass is a scalar quantity; mass has no dependence on direction whatsoever.

How long does it take a 22 kW steam engine to do 5.6 × 107 J of work? Answer in units of s.

Lena [83]

<h2>Time needed is 2545.45 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

We know equation for power

$\texttt{Power = }\frac{\texttt{Work}}{\texttt{Time}}$

Here we need to find time when for a 22 kW steam engine to do 5.6 × 10⁷ J of work.

Work = 5.6 × 10⁷ J

Power = 22 kW = 22 x 10³ W

Substituting

$\texttt{Power = }\frac{\texttt{Work}}{\texttt{Time}}\\\\22\times 10^3=\frac{5.6\times 10^7}{\texttt{Time}}\\\\\texttt{Time}=2545.45s$

Time needed is 2545.45 seconds.

What is the wavelength of a wave with a frequency of 466 Hz and a speed of

Volgvan

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option B</h3>

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave can be found by using the formula

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f} \\$

where

c is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

From the question

c = 343 m/s

f = 466 Hz

We have

$\lambda = \frac{343}{466} \\ = 0.73605150...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Our favorite program runs in 10 seconds on computer A, which has a 4 GHz. clock. We are trying to help a computer designer build

Alona [7]

Answer:

The rate clock is about

F = 8 GHz

Explanation:

f₁ = 4 G Hz , t₁ = 10 s , t₂ = 6s , f₂ = 1.2 f₁

Can organize to find the rate clock the designer build to the target so

X / 4 Ghz = 10 s , 1.2 X / Y = 6 s

X * Y = 10 s ⇒ F = 10 s

1.2 * 4 G Hz = 6 s

F = 10 * ( 1.2 * 4 G Hz ) / 6

F = 10 * ( 1.2 * 4 x 10 ⁹ Hz ) / 6

F = 8 x 10 ⁹ Hz

F = 8 GHz
