Answer:
350 ft/s²
Explanation:
First, convert mph to ft/s.
58 mi/hr × (5280 ft/mi) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 85.1 ft/s
Given:
v₀ = 85.1 ft/s
v = 0 ft/s
t = 0.24 s
Find: a
v = at + v₀
a = (v − v₀) / t
a = (0 ft/s − 85.1 ft/s) / 0.24 s
a = -354 ft/s²
Rounded to two significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is 350 ft/s².
The mechanical energy isn't conserved. Some energy is lost to friction.
Option A.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
The mechanical energy is defined as the energy of a body which it achieves by virtue of its position and velocity. The mechanical energy are of two types - potential energy and kinetic energy. The potential energy is the energy of the body which it achieves by means of its relative position and is directly proportional to the height of the body from its relative plane. Whereas the kinetic energy of the body is achieved by virtue of its velocity and is directly proportional to the square of velocity of the body.
As the mountaineer is skiing down the slope of a mountain, the potential energy of the person is gradually changing into his kinetic energy. Had it been in an ideal situation, the potential energy lost would have been just equal to the kinetic energy gained by the person. But there's friction which opposes the speed of the body and reduces the velocity. Thus the kinetic energy will be lost to some extent and the energy won't be conserved.
The air pressure inside the balloon increases as the number of particles increases.
Answer:
refractive index of the unknown material is 1.33.
Explanation:
μ₁ = 1.21
incidence angle (i) = 41.9°
refraction angle (r) = 37.3°
Let us assume μ be the refractive index of the unknown material
according to snell's law of refraction.
μ₁ sin i = μ₂ sin r
1.21 × sin 41.9° = μ × sin 37.3°
μ = 1.33
hence the refractive index of the unknown material comes out top be 1.33
