Complete Question:

One simple model for a person running the 100 m dash is to assume the sprinter runs with constant acceleration until reaching top speed, then maintains that speed through the finish line. If a sprinter reaches his top speed of 11.5 m/s in 2.24 s, what will be his total time?

Answer:

total time = 6.24 s

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion:

v = u + at

initial speed, u = 0 m/s

v = 11.5 m/s

t = 2.24 s

11.5 = 0 + 2.24a

a = 11.5/2.24

a = 5.13 m/s²

For the total time spent by the sprinter:

s = ut + 0.5at²

100 = 0.5 * 5.13 * t²

t² = 100/2.567

t² = 38.957

t = √38.957

t = 6.24 s

10. How far does a transverse pulse travel in 1.23 ms on a string with a density of 5.47 × 10−3 kg/m under tension of 47.8 ?????
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: Tension = 47.8N, Δx = 11.5×10^{-6} m.

              Tension = 95.6N, Δx = 15.4×10^{-5} m

Explanation: A speed of wave on a string under a tension force can be calculated as:

|v| = \sqrt{\frac{F_{T}}{\mu} }

F_{T} is tension force (N)

μ is linear density (kg/m)

Determining velocity:

|v| = \sqrt{\frac{47.8}{5.47.10^{-3}} }

|v| = \sqrt{0.00874 }

|v| = 0.0935 m/s

The displacement a pulse traveled in 1.23ms:

\Delta x = |v|.t

\Delta x = 9.35.10^{-2}*1.23.10^{-3}

Δx = 11.5×10^{-6}

With tension of 47.8N, a pulse will travel Δx = 11.5×10^{-6}  m.

Doubling Tension:

|v| = \sqrt{\frac{2*47.8}{5.47.10^{-3}} }

|v| = \sqrt{2.0.00874 }

|v| = \sqrt{0.01568}

|v| = 0.1252 m/s

Displacement for same time:

\Delta x = |v|.t

\Delta x = 12.52.10^{-2}*1.23.10^{-3}

\Delta x = 15.4×10^{-5}

With doubled tension, it travels \Delta x = 15.4×10^{-5} m

A central air conditioner in a typical American home operates on a 220-V circuit and draws about 15 A
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Find answers below.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 220V

Current = 15 A

a. To find the power;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 15 * 220

Power = 3300 Watts

b. To find the energy;

Time = 8 hours = 60 * 60 * 8 = 28800 seconds

Energy = power * time

Energy = 3300 * 8

Energy = 26400

Energy = 26.4 Kwh

c. Cost = 13 cents

Cost = 13 * 31 * 26.4

Cost = 106392 cents

JulsSmile [24]

The moon orbits quite fast: it moves about 0.5 degrees per hour in the sky. In 24 hours it moves 13 degrees. The moon's observed motion eastward results from its physical motion of the moon along its orbit around the Earth. so I think its A .
