Answer:

3.75s

Explanation:

Using equation of motion, t= (v-u)/a

where v=0, u=75 and a=-20

t=-75/-20=75/20=3 /.75

Two ice skaters stand together. They push off and travel directly away from each other, the boy with a velocity of v = +0.35 m/s
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

-0.55m/s

Explanation:

Given that: For the boy

Weight = 745N

Velocity = +0.35 m/s

Mass of the boy = ?

g = 9.81m/s^2

W = mg

745 = m×9.81

m = 75.94kg

For the girl

Given that:

Weight = 477 N

g = 9.81m/s^2

m = ?

W = mg

477 = m×9.81m/s^2

m = 48.62kg

To solve for the v of the girl, the two has to add up

48.62kg×v + 75.94kg×+0.35 m/s = 0

48.62v + 26.579 = 0

48.62v = - 26.579

v = -26.579/48.62

v = -0.5466

v = -0.55m/s

Hence, the velocity of the girl is -0.55m/s.

The negative sign is as a result of the two of them moving is opposite direction.

As the mass of an object increases so does its gravitational force. <br> a. True <br> b. False
vichka [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Gravity force is constant.

There some places on Earth that gravity has a variation, but in general, it is the same everywhere.

If you analyze the equation for the weight, which is the action of the gravity to mass, you'll see that W=mg, where m is the mass and g, is gravity.

If you increase the mass, what you are increasing is weight and not gravity.

The speed of sound in air is approximately 340 m/s. The speed of light in air is approximately 3 x 108 m/s. If 10 seconds elapse
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

3400 m

Explanation:

Both lightning and thunder happen at the same time but one is faster than the other. The distance traveled by a sound can be calculated from its speed such that;

 speed = distance/time, hence, distance = speed x time.

<em>For a thunder with 340 m/s speed and 10 seconds away from lightning, the distance between the thunder and the lightning can be calculated as</em>;

distance = 340 m/s x 10 s = 3400 m

A parallel-plate capacitor in air has a plate separation of 1.76 cm and a plate area of
Monica [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Plate separation, d = 1.76 cm = 0.0176 m

Area of plates, A = 25 cm^2 = 0.0025 m^2

V = 255 V

(a) Capacitance of capacitor

C = \frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}

C = \frac{8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 0.0025}{0.0176}

C = 1.258 x 10^-12 F

charge is same before and after immersion as the battery is disconnected

q = C V

q = 1.258 x 10^-12 x 255 = 3.2 x 10^-10 C

(b)

Capacitance before, C = 1.258 x 10^-12 C

capacitance after, C' = k x C = 80 x 1.258 x 10^-12 = 100.64 x 10^-12 C

Where, k is the dielectric constant of water = 80

Potential difference after immersion, V' = V / k = 255 / 80 = 3.1875 V

(c) initial energy,

U = \frac{q^{2}}{2C}

U = \frac{(3.2\times 10^{-10})^{2}}{2\times 1.258\times 10^{-12 }}=4.07\times 10^{-8}J

Final energy

U' = \frac{q^{2}}{2C'}

U' = \frac{(3.2\times 10^{-10})^{2}}{2\times 100.64\times 10^{-12}}=5.08\times 10^{-10}J
