A swimmer swims 110 m toward the shore in 72 s. What is the swimmers velocity in neters per second?

Physics
1 answer:
MrRissso [65]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1.53 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is given in meters per second, so if it takes the swimmer 72 second to swim 110 meters:

m/s = 110 meters / 72 seconds = 1.527 or 1.53 m/s

Explain what parallel medium boundaries do to the path of the wave after it travels through both boundaries. (air and water)
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The boundaries cause the waves to change direction an effect called <u>refraction.</u>

Explanation:

When a wave crosses a boundary between different materials, the speed of the wave and its wavelength changes.When passing from air to water the two properties (speed and wavelength) decreases, and the wave is observed to change direction as it crosses the boundary between the two material.The bending of the wave is called refraction.

A lab cart with a mass of 15 kg is moving with constant velocity, v, along a straight horizontal track. A student drops a 2 kg m
lbvjy [14]

The equation 15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f} (option 3) represents the horizontal momentum of a 15 kg lab cart moving with a constant velocity, v, and that continues moving after a 2 kg object is dropped into it.  

The horizontal momentum is given by:

p_{i} = p_{f}

m_{1}v_{1}_{i} + m_{2}v_{2}_{i} = m_{1}v_{1}_{f} + m_{2}v_{2}_{f}

Where:

  • m₁: is the mass of the lab cart = 15 kg
  • m₂: is the <em>mass </em>of the object dropped = 2 kg
  • v_{1}_{i}: is the initial velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
  • v_{2}_{i}: is the <em>initial velocit</em>y of the <em>object </em>= 0 (it is dropped)
  • v_{1}_{f}: is the final velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
  • v_{2}_{f}: is the <em>final velocity</em> of the <em>object </em>

Then, the horizontal momentum is:

15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = 15v_{1}_{f} + 2v_{2}_{f}

When the object is dropped into the lab cart, the final velocity of the lab cart and the object <u>will be the same</u>, so:

15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = v_{f}(15 + 2)

Therefore, the equation 15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f} represents the horizontal momentum (option 3).

The measured value of the speed of light is about 300,000 km/s. suppose a futuristic space train is traveling at 200,000 km/s wi
Gwar [14]
The speed of light generally would be 300000km/s but since the train is moving in the same direction as the light it would apparently appear to be 100000km/s
