A 730 N student stands in the middle of a frozen pond having a radius of 5.8 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of

a lack of friction between his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 2.6 kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 6.1 m/s. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s². How long does it take him to reach the south shore? Answer in units.

Answer:27.35 s

Explanation:

Given

weight of man =730 N

mass of man m_1=\frac{730}{9.8}=74.48 kg

radius of pound r=5.8 m

mass of book m_2=2.6 kg

velocity of book v_2=6.1 m/s

let v_1 be the velocity of man

conserving momentum

0=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

0=74.48\times v_1+2.6\times 6.1

v_1=\frac{15.86}{74.48}=0.212 m/s

time taken by man to reach south end

t=\frac{5.8}{0.212}=27.35 s

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor = how
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor are equivalent to 6 drinks.

Explanation:

In the United States, a standard "drink" of beer has 12 ounces, a standard "drink" of wine has 5 ounces and standard drink of liquor has 1.5 ounces. Then, we obtain the quantity of drinks by dividing the total volume of each drink by its respective unit volume and summing each term. That is:

N = \frac{12\,oz}{12\,\frac{oz}{dr} }+\frac{12\,oz}{5\,\frac{oz}{dr} }+\frac{3\,oz}{1.5\,\frac{oz}{dr} }

N = 1\,dr+2.4\,dr+2\,dr

N = 5.4\,dr

N = 6\,dr

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor are equivalent to 6 drinks.

Thick rubber gloves prevent electric shock because​
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Rubber is an insulator.

Explanation:

Rubber is an insulator. Electricity will always travel "the path of least resistance." Rubber has a very high resistance, so electricity will go somewhere else to find ground.

Three students have been studying relative motion and decide to do an experiment to demonstrate their knowledge. The experiment
miskamm [114]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Constant speed of Jane=12.6 m/s

a.When Fred can throw the ball 30  m/s

We have to find the angle relative to the horizontal when he throw the ball in order for Sue to see the ball travel vertically upward.

Let \theta be the angle .

Therefore,

30 cos\theta=12.6

cos\theta=\frac{12.6}{30}=0.42

\theta=cos^{-1}(0.42)=65.165^{\circ}

b.We have to find the height to which ball reach.

v^2-v^2_0=2aS

S=\frac{v^2-v^2_0}{2a}=\frac{0-(30 sin65.165)^2}{2(-9.81)}

S=37.78 m

3.00 textbook rests on a frictionless, horizontal tabletop surface. A cord attached to the book passes over a pulley whose diame
sammy [17]

Answer:

a1 = 3.56 m/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of book on horizontal surface; m1 = 3 kg

Mass of hanging book; m2 = 4 kg

Diameter of pulley; D = 0.15 m

Radius of pulley; r = D/2 = 0.15/2 = 0.075 m

Change in displacement; Δx = Δy = 1 m

Time; t = 0.75

I've drawn a free body diagram to depict this question.

Since we want to find the tension of the cord on 3.00 kg book, it means we are looking for T1 as depicted in the FBD attached. T1 is calculated from taking moments about the x-axis to give;

ΣF_x = T1 = m1 × a1

a1 is acceleration and can be calculated from Newton's 2nd equation of motion.

s = ut + ½at²

our s is now Δx and a1 is a.

Thus;

Δx = ut + ½a1(t²)

u is initial velocity and equal to zero because the 3 kg book was at rest initially.

Thus, plugging in the relevant values;

1 = 0 + ½a1(0.75²)

Multiply through by 2;

2 = 0.75²a1

a1 = 2/0.75²

a1 = 3.56 m/s²
