The larger the mass the mass and the speed, the larger the force it would produce if it crashes something. Some car crashes produce minor injuries because maybe this car is small and runs at very slow speed which would mean less force when in impact with another. However, if a big truck crashes, it is expected to produce a larger force causing catastrophic injuries.

Suppose that you are swimming in a river while a friend watches from the shore. In calm water, you swim at a speed of 1.25 m/s .
aliya0001 [1]

Answer: The observing friend will the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s.

Explanation:

  • Let <em>S</em> be the speed of the swimmer, given as 1.25 m/s
  • Let S_{0} be the speed of the river's current given as 1.00 m/s.

  • Note that this speed is the magnitude of the velocity which is a vector quantity.
  • The direction of the swimmer is upstream.

Hence the resultant velocity is given as, S_{R} = S — S 0S_{0}

S_{R} = 1.25 — 1

S_{R} = 0.25 m/s.

Therefore, the observing friend will see the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s due to resistance produced by the current of the river.

Show that the optimal launch angle for a projectile subject to gravity is 45o by carrying out the following steps: 6. Write down
Lorico [155]

Answer:

sin  2θ = 1    θ=45

Explanation:

They ask us to prove that the optimal launch angle is 45º, for this by reviewing the parabolic launch equations we have the scope equation

            R = Vo² sin 2θ / g

Where R is the horizontal range, Vo is the initial velocity, g the acceleration of gravity and θ the launch angle. From this equation we see that the sine function is maximum 2θ = 90 since sin 90 = 1 which implies that θ = 45º; This proves that this is the optimum angle to have the maximum range.

We calculate the distance traveled for different angle

          R = vo² Sin (2 15) /9.8

          R = Vo² 0.051 m

In the table are all values ​​in two ways

Angle (θ)                  distance R (x)

 0                 0                     0

15                 0.051 Vo²        0.5 Vo²/g

30                0.088 vo²        0.866   Vo²/g

45                0.102 Vo²        1   Vo²/g

60                0.088 Vo²      0.866   Vo²/g

75                0.051 vo²        0.5   Vo²/g

90                0                     0

See graphic ( R Vs θ)  in the attached ¡, it can be done with any program, for example EXCEL

On a dry day, just after washing your hair to remove natural oils and drying it thoroughly, run a plastic comb through it. Small
Hitman42 [59]
When the surface of the comb rubs on your hair, the comb is electrically charged. When the comb comes close to the paper, the charge on the comb causes charge separation on the paper bits. Since paper is neutral, positive and negative charges are equivalent. The charge on the comb charges the area of the bit of paper nearest the comb to the opposite. Thus, the bits of paper become attracted to the comb.

How much would a 75kg man weigh due to the effect of gravity
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: 735 N

Explanation:

Weight W is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object and is directly proportional to the product of the mass m of the body by the acceleration of gravity g:  

W=m.g

In the case of our planet Earth, the acceleration due gravity is g=9.8 m/s^{2}. So for a man whose mass is m=75 kg, his weight is:

W=(75 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})

W=735 N
