Answer:

An athlete runs before jumping to gain momentum. Because it helps in jumping higher and longer because of inertia of motion gained due to the motion. When the athletes Jump they already have a forward motion that would be greater than that of a jump made from standing in one spot.

Difference between static and kinetic friction in physics

KIM [24]

The force of static friction keeps a stationary object at rest. Once the force of static friction is overcome, the force of kinetic friction is what slows down a moving object.

This diagram shows particles that make up an atom. Which label BEST completes the diagram ?

worty [1.4K]

Answer: option A. strong nuclear force.

Explanation:

The diagram shows the subatomic particles inside the nucelous: protons and neutrons.

As you know, the protons are positively charged partilces inside the nucleous.

Being those particles charged with the same kind of charge they experiment electrostatic repulsion. So, how do you explain that they can stand together in such small space as it is the nucleous?

The responsible of keeping the subatomic particles together is the so called strong nuclear force.

Strong nuclear force or simply strong force is one of the four fundamental interactions or forces: i) gravitational, ii) electromagnetic, iii) weak nuclear force, and iv) strong nuclear force.

Strong nuclear force is the strongest force of nature and acts only in short distances as those inside the nucleous and is responsible for both the atraction among quarks and the atraction among protons to bind them together inside the atomic nucleous.

5. The analytical method of adding vectors expressed in terms of their components may be applied to vectors in three dimensions,

Gwar [14]

Answer:

C = 17 i^ - 7 j^ + 16 k^ , | C| = 24.37

Explanation:

To work the vactor component method, we add the sum in each axis

C = A + B = (Aₓ + Bₓ) i ^ + ( $A_{y}$ + $B_{y}$ ) i ^ + ( $A_{z}$ + $B_{z}$ ) k ^

Cₓ = 12+ 5 = 17

$C_{y}$ = -37 +30 = -7

$C_{z}$ = 58 -42 = 16

Resulting vector

C = 17 i ^ - 7j ^ + 16k ^

The mangitude of the vector is

| C | = √ c²

| C | = √( 17² + 7² + 16²)

| C| = 24.37

Determine the approximate force (N) used to pull a sled up a 400 m hill using 1900 J of work.

Sergeu [11.5K]

The work done to pull the sled up to the hill is given by
$W=Fd$
where
F is the intensity of the force
d is the distance where the force is applied.

In our problem, the work done is $W=1900 J$ and the distance through which the force is applied is $d=400 m$ , so we can calculate the average force by re-arranging the previous equation and by using these data:
$F= \frac{W}{d}= \frac{1900 J}{400 m} = 4.75 N \sim 5 N$
