Materials required for the experiment of limiting force borne by string:-
- String balance
- weights
- light strings
- weight hanger
- pan for spring balance
- Sand
Steps of procedure for for the experiment of limiting force borne by string:-
- First we have to tie a light string to the fixed support and then tie the other end with the weight hanger consists of weight.
- Add additional weight to the hanger again and again. And continue the same until the string is broken.
- Note down the weight (x) where the string is broken.
- Suspend spring balance to a support.
- Tie the light string at the end of the balance and at the other end suspend the pan for spring balance.
- Now place the weights (x-100 grams) in pan.
- Observe the reading in the spring balance.
- Add a small amount of sand in the pan by observing the readings.
- same is to be done till the string is broken.

The second runner must run 3.3m/s. If the leading runner is 1.5 seconds ahead and there are 30m left, the second runner would need to run slightly faster than the lead in order to finish at the same time. To calculate this I did 30/1.5 which gave me 0.05. I added this onto the speed of the lead runner to get 3.3m/s :)
Answer:
10.93m/s with the assumption that the water in the lake is still (the water has a speed of zero)
Explanation:
The velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water surface is equal to the resultant velocity between the fish and the water when it hits it.
The fish drops on the water surface vertically with a vertical velocity v. Nothing was said about the velocity of the water, hence we can safely assume that the velocity if the water in the lake is zero, meaning that it is still. Therefore the relative velocity becomes equal to the velocity v with which the fish strikes the water surface.
We use the first equation of motion for a free-falling body to obtain v as follows;
v = u + gt....................(1)
where g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s/s
It should also be noted that the horizontal and vertical components of the motion are independent of each other, hence we take u = 0 as the fish falls vertically.
To obtain t, we use the second equation of motion as stated;
Given; h = 6.10m.
since u = 0 for the vertical motion; equation (2) can be written as follows;
substituting;
Putting this value of t in equation (1) we obtain the following;
v = 0 + 9.8*1.12
v = 10.93m/s
Pressure applied on a system is calculated by dividing the force by the area perpendicular to the direction of the force. It is expressed as:
P = F/A = 1.5 N / 0.5 m^2 = 3 N/m^2
Therefore, the correct answer from the choices is the last option. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
Checking a table of star sizes, we'll see that our Sun is a medium sized star, so the answer is D, average.
