Answer:

Pressure difference between head and toes = 16872.2 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure difference between the head and toes of the man will be equal to the water pressure exerted at his toes. This can be found as follows:

Water pressure = (density of water) * (gravity) * (height of water)

Density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

Gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

Height of water = height of man = 1.72 m

Water pressure = 1000 * 9.81 * 1.72

Water pressure = 16872.2 Pa

Look at the vector r plotted below
solong [7]

Answer: option A. r = 3x+2y

Explanation:

Vector r is plotted on the graph. On x-axis each small division corresponds to 1 unit. Similarly on y-axis, each small division corresponds to one unit.

The vector is the resultant of addition of its x and y components. we would draw perpendicular to the x-axis and y-axis from the head of vector r.

On x-axis, r_x = +3 units

on y-axis, r_y = +2 units

r = r_x+r_y

Hence, vector r can be written as: r = 3x + 2y . Correct option is A.

Pilots often take advantage of the ____,which are highly-speed winds between 7km and 16 km above earths surface.
lukranit [14]
I believe it is called or referred to as the "Jet Stream". During World War II, allied pilots encountered high speed winds in the upper air. They named those winds after the fastest planes they came up against: fighters equipped with jet engines! Jet stream winds in winter time can reach up to 300 MPH as well!

Aleks [24]

Answer: Average Velocity = - 643.42 i + 512.66 j m/s

Magnitude = 822.7 m/s

Direction = 141.45°

Explanation:

r = 3.84 x 10^8 m

w = 2.46 x 10^-6 rad/s

Formula for Average velocity = displacement / time

at t = 0

x(0) = r

y(0) = 0

at t = 8.45 days

= 8.45 x 24 x 3600 s =730080 sec

w t = 2.46 x 10^-6 x 730080 = 1.80 rad Or 102.90°

xf = r cos(w t) = - 0.2233r

yf = r sin(w t) = 0.9747r

Displacement = (xf - x0)i + (yf - y0)j = -1.2233r i + 0.9747r j

<v> = dispalcement / t = (-1.2233r i + 0.9747r j ) / (730080 s )

= - 643.42 i + 512.66 j m/s

Magnitude

= sqrt(643.42^2 + 512.66^2)

= 822.7 m/s

Direction

= 180 - tan^-1(512.66 / 643.42)

= 141.45°

Can somebody please help with these
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Fusion

Fission

Explanation:

The first problem describes a nuclear fusion process. In this process;

  • small atomic nuclei combines to form a larger one.
  • it is accompanied by a large release of energy
  • this energy provides the needed temperature to set up another light nuclei to fuse.

The second problem describes nuclear fission,

  • a heavy nuclide is bombarded with a neutron.
  • the product formed becomes unstable and subsequently breaks down.
  • This leads to a series of chain reactions until stability is attained.
