two people, each with a mass of 70 kg, are wearing inline skates and are holding opposite ends of a 15m rope. One person pulls f

orward on the rope by moving hand over hand and gradually reeling in more of the rope. In doing so, he exerts a force of 35N [backwards] on the rope. This causes him to accelerate toward the other person. Assuming that the friction acting on the skaters is negligible, how long will it take for them to meet? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

7.75 s

Explanation:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

35 N = (70 kg) a

a = 0.5 m/s²

Given v₀ = 0 m/s and Δx = 15 m:

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(15 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (0.5 m/s²) t²

t = 7.75 s

What force does the water exert (in addition to that due to atmospheric pressure) on a submarine window of radius 44.0 cm at a d
Butoxors [25]
Calculate the pressure due to sea water as density*depth.
That is, 
pressure = (1025 kg/m^3)*((9400 m)*(9.8 m/s^2) = 94423000 Pa = 94423 kPa

Atmospheric pressure is  101.3 kPa
Total pressure is  94423 + 101.3 = 94524 kPa (approx)

The area of the window is π(0.44 m)^2 = 0.6082 m^2

The force on the window is
(94524 kPa)*(0.6082 m^2) = 57489.7 kN = 57.5 MN approx

vovangra [49]

Answer

Hi,

In a chemical equation, chemicals that react are the reactants, while chemicals that are produced are the products/by products. Both sides of the equation must be balanced.

Explanation

When writing a chemical equation, reactants reacts to produce products. For example in the equation for formation of water, hydrogen combines with oxygen as 2H₂ +O₂→2H₂O where the first part before the arrow represent the reactants and the next part after the arrow are the products. Reactants are on the left where as products are on the right.Coefficient 2, in this cases is used for balancing the equation.

Good luck!
