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

A wire loop with 70 turns is formed into a square with sides of length ???? . The loop is in the presence of a 1.20 T uniform ma
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

l= 3.002 cm

Explanation:

Given that

n= 70 turns

B= 1.2 T

θ= 15°

I= 1.5 A

τ = 0.0294 N⋅m

Lets take length of sides is l.

We know that

τ  = n I A B sin θ

Area of square ,A= l²

Now by putting the value

τ  = n I A B sin θ

0.0294  = 70 x  1.5 x  l² x  1.2 x  sin 15°

l² = 0.000901 m²

l² = 9.01 cm²

l= 3.002 cm

If your car tachometer says your engine is moving at 1200 RPM, then what is it's angular velocity in Rad/sec?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

125.66 R/s

Explanation:

First    1200  r / min = 20 r/sec

20 r/s  *  2pi Radians / r = 40 pi Radians / sec = 125.66 R/s

A high fountain of water is located at the center of a circular pool. Not wishing to get his feet wet, a student walks around th
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The fountain is 3.43 m high.

Explanation:

Circumference of the pool = 15 m.

C = 2\pir

where C is the circumference and r its radius.

r = \frac{C}{2\pi }

 = \frac{15}{2(\frac{22}{7}) }

r = 2.3864

radius of the pool = 2.40 m

So that the height of the fountain, h, can be determined by applying trigonometric function.

Tan θ = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

Tan 55 = \frac{h}{2.4}

h = Tan 55 x 2.4

  = 1.4282 x 2.4

  = 3.4277

h = 3.43 m

The height of the fountain is 3.43 m.
