Answer:
100 m/s ÷ 8 = 12.5 m/s
Explanation:
You must put multiply (÷)
It’s coming in contact with more air molecules than I would if it was in a ball because there is less surface area
Answer:
c: long and thin resistor.
Explanation:
The resistance of a resistor is given by:
R = ρ*L/A
where:
R = resistance
ρ = resistivity (depends on the material)
L = length of the material
A = cross-sectional area of the material
We can see that the length is on the numerator, which means that if we increase the length, then the resistance is increased.
We also can see that the cross-sectional area is on the denominator, then if we increase the area (for example, with a ticker resistor) the resistance decreases.
Then if we want to maximize the resistance, we need to have a long and thin resistor, so the correct answer is c.
Complete Question:
The elastic energy stored in your tendons can contribute up to 35 % of your energy needs when running. Sports scientists have studied the change in length of the knee extensor tendon in sprinters and nonathletes. They find (on average) that the sprinters' tendons stretch 43 mm , while nonathletes' stretch only 32 mm . The spring constant for the tendon is the same for both groups, 
. What is the difference in maximum stored energy between the sprinters and the nonathlethes?
Answer:
Explanation:
Sprinters' tendons stretch, 
Non athletes' stretch, 
Spring constant for the two groups, k = 31 N/mm = 3100 N/m
Maximum Energy stored in the sprinter, 
Maximum energy stored in the non athletes, 
Difference in maximum stored energy between the sprinters and the non-athlethes:
Answer:
Machine - A device consisting of fixed and moving parts that modifies mechanical energy and transmits it in a more useful form.
Mechanical advantage - Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system.
Inclined Plane - A plane set at an angle to the horizontal, especially a simple machine used to raise or lower a load by rolling or sliding.
Wedge - A piece of material, such as metal or wood, thick at one edge and tapered to a thin edge at the other for insertion in a narrow crevice, used for splitting, tightening, securing, or levering.
Screw - A cylindrical rod incised with one or more helical or advancing spiral threads, as a lead screw or worm screw.
Lever - A simple machine consisting of a rigid bar pivoted on a fixed point and used to transmit force, as in raising or moving a weight at one end by pushing down on the other.
