A man walks 30 m to the west than 5 m to the east in 45 seconds.

Physics

1 answer:

harkovskaia [24]3 years ago

Answer:

35 m

0.56 m/s west

Explanation:

A) Total distance is the length of the path taken.

30 m + 5 m = 35 m

B) Velocity is displacement over time. Displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position.

If west is -x, and east is +x, then:

Δx = -30 m + 5 m

Δx = -25 m

v = Δx / t

v = -25 m / 45 s

v = -0.56 m/s

v = 0.56 m/s west

PLS HELP!!! A 1200-kg whale swims horizontally to the right at a speed of 6.0 m/s. It suddenly collides directly with a stationa

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

7200 kg.m/s

Explanation:

According the law of conservation of linear momentum, the sum of momentum before and after collision are equal.

Using this principle, the sum of initial momentum will be given as p=mv where p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity

Initial momentum

Mass of whale*initial velocity of whale + mass of seal*initial seal velocity

Since the seal is initially stationary, its velocity is zero. By substitution and taking right direction as positive

Initial momentum will be

1200*6+(280*0)=7200 kg.m/s

Since both initial and final momentum should be equal, hence the final momentum will also be 7200 kg.m/s

A car battery with a 12 V emf and an internal resistance of 0.11 Ω is being charged with a current of 56 A. What are (a) the pot

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Part a)

V = 18.16 V

Part b)

$P_r = 345 Watt$

Part c)

P = 672 Watt

Part d)

V = 5.84 V

Part e)

$P_r = 345 Watt$

Explanation:

Part a)

When battery is in charging mode

then the potential difference at the terminal of the cell is more than its EMF and it is given as

$\Delta V = E + i r$

here we have

$E = 12 V$

$i = 56 A$

$r = 0.11$

now we have

$\Delta V = 12 + (0.11)(56) = 18.16 V$

Part b)

Rate of energy dissipation inside the battery is the energy across internal resistance

so it is given as

$P_r = i^2 r$

$P_r = 56^2 (0.11)$

$P_r = 345 W$

Part c)

Rate of energy conversion into EMF is given as

$P_{emf} = i E$

$P_{emf} = (56)(12)$

$P_{emf} = 672 Watt$

Now battery is giving current to other circuit so now it is discharging

now we have

Part d)

$V = E - i r$

$V = 12 - (56)(0.11)$

$V = 12 - 6.16 = 5.84 V$

Part e)

now the rate of energy dissipation is given as

$P_r = i^2 r$

$P_r = 56^2 (0.11)$

$P_r = 345 W$

How do I find frictional force with force applied?

lions [1.4K]

Answer: Choose the normal force acting between the object and the ground. Let's assume a normal force of 250 N.

Determine the friction coefficient.

Multiply these values by each other: 250 N * 0.13 = 32.5 N .

You just found the force of friction!

At a point 1.2 m out from the hinge, 14.0 N force is exerted at an angle of 27 degrees to the moment arm in a plane which is per

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

$\tau = 7.63 Nm$

Explanation:

As we know that moment of force is given as

$\tau = \vec r \times \vec F$

now we have

$\vec r = 1.2 m$

$\vec F = 14 N$

now from above formula we have

$\tau = r F sin\theta$

here we know that

$\theta = 27 degree$

so we have

$\tau = (1.2)(14) sin27$

$\tau = 7.63 Nm$
