The rubber protects him from being electrocuted by the flow of current going through the plug.
Hope this helped!!

A 1400 kg car is traveling east on the highway at 31 m/s and collides into the rear of a slower moving pickup truck of 2400 kg,

zloy xaker [14]

Answer: 31 m/s due east

Explanation: this question can be solved using the law of conservation of linear momentum.

This law states that in a closed or isolated system, during collision, the vector sum of momentum before collision equals the vector sum of momentum after collision.

Momentum = mass × velocity

From our question, our parameters before collision are given below as

Mass of car = mc = 1400kg

Speed of car =vc = 31 m/s (due east)

Mass of truck = mt = 2400kg

Velocity of truck = vt = 25 m/s ( due east )

After collision

Velocity of car = ?

Velocity of truck = 34 m/s ( due east )

Vector sum of momentum before collision is given as

1400 (31) + 2400 (25) = 43400 + 60000 = 103400 kgm/s

After collision the truck is seen to move faster (v = 34 m/s) which implies that the car also moves due east .

1400 (v) + 2400(25) .... A positive value is between both momenta because they are in the same direction.

After collision, we have that

1400v + 60000

Vector sum of momentum before collision = vector sum of momentum after collision

103400 = 1400v + 60000

103400 - 60000 = 1400v

43400 = 1400v

v = 43400/ 1400

v = 31 m/s due east

What type of energy is involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks?

ziro4ka [17]

<span>First question: The type of energy involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks is: option d. Kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy associated with motion. A body (in this case the water) that moves has an energy associated with its motion that is proportional to the speed (exactly to the square of the speed). When the water collides with the banks it is the kinetic energy of the river that erodes it Second question: the answer is the option d. As gravity pulls water down a slope potential energy changes to knietic energy. This is the, water loses altitude and gains velocity. The potential energy. which is proportional to the height, decreases and the kinetic energy, which is proportional to the square of the speed, increases.</span>

The whale shark is the largest of all fish and can have the mass of three adult

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

m = 20,000 kg

Explanation:

Force, $F=2.5\times 10^4\ N$

Acceleration of the shark, $a=1.25\ m/s^2$

It is required to find the mass of the shark. Let m is the mass. Using second law of motion to find it as follows :

F = ma

Putting the value of F and a to find m

$m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^4}{1.25}\\\\m=20,000\ kg$

So, the shark's mass is 20,000 kg.
