5.0 N.s ( 5.0 newton second) is the magnitude of the impulse imparted to the child by the mother

Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

An impulse is a variation in the object's momentum when the object is subjected to force for a time period. Therefore, you can use the pulse to calculate the change in pulse or use the pulse to calculate the average impact force. The equation for impulse is given by,

$J= Force \times time$

Given data:

F = 10 N

t = 0.50 s

We need to find the magnitude of the impulse. By applying the given values to the above equation, we get

$J = 10 \times 0.5=5.0\ \mathrm{N} .\mathrm{s}$

A hiker determines the length of a lake by listening for the echo of her shout reflected by a cliff at the far end of the lake.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

L = 499 m

Explanation:

If we assume that the speed of sound is constant, that travels along a straight line, and that the echo is instantaneous, we can find the total distance travelled by the sound, as follows, just applying the definition of average velocity:

$\Delta x = v_{s} * t = 343 m/s* 2.91 s = 998 m$

If we assume that the time needed to reach to the cliff, is the same used for the return travel, the length of the lake will be exactly half of the total distance calculated:

$l_{lake} = \frac{\Delta x}{2} = \frac{998m}{2} = 499 m$

The length of the lake is 499 m.

The average specific heat of the human body is 3.6 kJ/kg·°C. If the body temperature of a(n) 96-kg man rises from 37°C to 39°C d

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

691200 J

Explanation:

From specific heat capacity,

ΔQ = cmΔt.................. Equation 1

Where ΔQ = increase in thermal energy, c = specific heat capacity of the body, m = mass of the man, Δt = rise in temperature.

Given: c = 3.6 kJ/kg.°C = 3600 J/kg.°C, m = 96 kg, Δt = 39-37 = 2 °C.

Substitute into equation 1

ΔQ = 3600×96×2

ΔQ = 691200 J.

Hence the change in the thermal energy of the body = 691200 J

A copper wire 1.0 meter long and with a mass of .0014 kilograms per meter vibrates in two segments when under a tension of 27 Ne

Furkat [3]

Answer:

the frequency of this mode of vibration is 138.87 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

length of the copper wire, L = 1 m

mass per unit length of the copper wire, μ = 0.0014 kg/m

tension on the wire, T = 27 N

number of segments, n = 2

The frequency of this mode of vibration is calculated as;

$F_n = \frac{n}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\F_2 = \frac{2}{2\times 1} \sqrt{\frac{27}{0.0014} }\\\\F_2 = 138.87 \ Hz$

Therefore, the frequency of this mode of vibration is 138.87 Hz

What is the amount of electric field passing through a surface called? A. Electric flux.B. Gauss’s law.C. Electricity.D. Charge

rjkz [21]

Answer:

A. Electric flux

Explanation:

Electric flux is the rate of flow of the electric field through a given area (see ). Electric flux is proportional to the number of electric field lines going through a virtual surface.

Electric flux has SI units of volt metres (V m), or, equivalently, newton metres squared per coulomb (N m2 C−1). Thus, the SI base units of electric flux are kg·m3·s−3·A−1.
