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

The separation between two magnets is reduced by a factor of 5. How does the force between them change?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:Increase by a factor of  25

Explanation:

We know that magnetic force is proportional to \frac{1}{r^2}

where r is the distance between them

F\propto B\propto \frac{1}{r^2}

Thus F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}

Where B=magnetic field

If distance is reduced by a factor of 5 then force must increase by a factor of 25 because

r\rightarrow \frac{r}{5}

so F\propto \dfrac{1}{(\frac{r}{5})^2}

F\propto \frac{25}{r^2}

Describe how an inclined plane increases the force without changing the amount of work done
yawa3891 [41]

An inclined plane decreases the amount of force needed to move an object but increases the distance the onject needs to be moved. Since work = distance x force, whe amount of work stays the same.

A 55 kg roller skater is at rest on a flat skating rink, a 198 N horizontal force is needed to set the skater in motion.
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

To get the person Moving you have to overcome the static (means not moving) friction coefficient.  U(static)

To get the person going at the same speed you have to overcome the kinetic friction coefficient. U(Kinetic)

Force to get him moving is 198 N.   Force = ma = U(static)Mg

combining the 2 equations you get 198N = U(static)* 55kg *9.8m/s^2   Solve for U(static)

Same equation to keep him moving except with the dynamic force and the dynamic U

 

175N=  U(kinetic)*55kg*9.8m/s^2  Solve (U dynamic)

Compare the events in the life of the Sun with those of a star that starts with less
GarryVolchara [31]

A star with greater mass will die out faster than the Sun.

<h3>What factors star is dependent on?</h3>

A star's future relies upon its mass. For the most part, the more huge the star, the quicker it consumes its fuel supply, and the more limited its life. The most huge stars can wear out and detonate in a cosmic explosion after two or three million years of combination.

Our Sun is a typical estimated star: there are more modest stars and bigger stars, even up to multiple times bigger. Numerous other planetary groups have different suns, while our own simply has one. The Sun is made for the most part out of hydrogen and helium gas.

In this manner, one correlation in the occasions in the existence of the Sun with those of a star that beginnings with a mass multiple times more prominent than the Sun's is a star that has a more noteworthy mass will vanish quicker.

Question 11 (1 point)
Ainat [17]

Answer:

gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth surface.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where,

G.P.E represents gravitational potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

This ultimately implies that, anytime there is height, the object must have gravitational potential energy.

Hence, an object possesses gravitational potential energy due to its height (position) and the earth's gravitational force.
