Answer:

time taken = 6 secs

Explanation:

Power (P) = Force(F) * displacement(d)/ TIME (t)

75= 225 * 2.0/t

t= 225*2/75

t= 6 sec

A chimpanzee sitting against his favorite tree gets up and walks 70.9 m due east and 31.9 m due south to reach a termite mound,

DIA [1.3K]

A right triangle is formed by the 70.9 m walked east and 31.9 m walked south.
The legs of this right triangle are 70.9 and 31.9.
The shortest distance between two points is a straaight line. Therefore the hypotenuse of this triangle is going to be that shortest distance.
We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse of this triangle.
$a^2+b^2=c^2\\70.9^2+31.9^2=c^2\\5026.81+1017.61=c^2\\6044.42=c^2\\c=\sqrt{6044.42}$

$c=\sqrt{6044.42}\approx\boxed{77.7458681}\ (decimal\ form)\\\\c=\sqrt{6044.42}=\sqrt{\frac{604442}{100}}=\boxed{\frac{\sqrt{604442}}{10}}\ (exact\ form)$

As for the second part of the question, we want to find the angle formed by the hypotenuse and the 31.9 walked east.
We could use any of the three trigonometric ratios here since we know all 3 sides.
sine = opposite / hypotenuse
cosine = adjacent / hypotenuse
tangent = opposite / adjacent
I am going to use tangent, because then I won't have to deal with the hypotenuse and so the answer will be more accurate.

If you haven't already drawn yourself a diagram, now is a good time to.
The side opposite our angle is the 31.9, and the adjacent is 70.9.
Therefore, $\tan(m\angle)=\frac{31.9}{70.9}$ .

We can use inverse trig ratios here to find the measure of our angle.
$\tan^{-1}(\tan(m\angle))=\tan^{-1}(\frac{31.9}{70.9})\\\\m\angle=\tan^{-1}(\frac{31.9}{70.9})\approx\boxed{24.2243851\°\ or\ 0.422795279\ rad}$

Answer:

Explanation:

Essential Knowledge

It is essential that the student be able to distinguish between specialized structures that allow protists and fungi to obtain energy and explore their environment.

Protists

Protists are organisms that are classified into the Kingdom Protista. Although there is a lot of variety within the protists, they do share some common characteristics.

● Protists are usually single celled organisms.

● Live in moist environments.

● Vary in the ways they move and obtain energy.

Protists obtain their energy in several ways.

● Animal-like protists ingest or absorb food after capturing or trapping it.

● Plant-like protists produce food through photosynthesis.

● Fungus-like protists obtain their food by external digestion either as decomposers or as parasites.

● Some protists have both autotrophic and heterotrophic characteristi

A red laser beam goes from crown glass with refraction index n=1.3 to air (n=1) with an incident angle of 0.23 radians. What is

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

θ = 10.28º

Explanation:

To find the angle of refraction use the equation of refraction

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where index 1 is for incident light and index 2 is for refracted light.

sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ

let's calculate

sin = 1 / 1.3 sin 0.23

sin = 0.175

θ= 0.17528 rad

let's reduce to degrees

θ = 0.17528 rad (180ª / pi rad)

θ = 10.28º

A 5000-kg freight car runs into a 10,000-kg freight car at rest. They couple upon collision and move with a speed of 2 m/s. What

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

C) 6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m₁=5000 kg

The initial velocity of 5000 kg car =u₁

m₂=10,000 kg

The initial velocity of 10000 kg car =u₂ = 0 m/s

After collision the final speed of the both car,v = 2 m/s

There is no any external force on the system that is why linear momentum will be conserved.

Linear momentum P = m v

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₂ + m₁) v

5000 x u₁ + 10000 x 0 = (5000 + 10000) x 2

5000 x u₁ = 15000 x 2

5 x u₁ = 15 x 2

u₁ = 6 m/s

Therefore the answer is C.

C) 6 m/s
