Momentum is conserved throughout this scenario.
Before the man does anything, the total momentum of him and his book is zero. So we know that it'll be zero after he throws the book.
Momentum = (mass) x (velocity)
The man gives the book (1.2 kg)x(10 m/s north) = 12 kg-m/s north
of momentum.
Since the total momentum must be zero, the man himself picks up 120 kg-m/s of momentum south.
(his mass)x(his v) = 120 kg-m/s south = (770 kg-m/s^2/9.8 m/s^2)x(V).
His velocity southward = (120 x 9.8) / (770) m/s .
He needs to reach the shore 10m away.
Time = distance/speed
= (10 x 770) / (120 x 9.8) seconds
= 6.55 seconds
True!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
the number of additional car lengths approximately it takes the sleepy driver to stop compared to the alert driver is 15
Explanation:
Given that;
speed of car V = 120 km/h = 33.3333 m/s
Reaction time of an alert driver = 0.8 sec
Reaction time of an alert driver = 3 sec
extra time taken by sleepy driver over an alert driver = 3 - 0.8 = 2.2 sec
now, extra distance that car will travel in case of sleepy driver will be'
S_d = V × 2.2 sec
S_d = 33.3333 m/s × 2.2 sec
S_d = 73.3333 m
hence, number of car of additional car length n will be;
n = S_n / car length
n = 73.3333 m / 5m
n = 14.666 ≈ 15
Therefore, the number of additional car lengths approximately it takes the sleepy driver to stop compared to the alert driver is 15
Answer:
θ₁ = 3.35 10⁻⁴ rad
, θ₂ = 8.39 10⁻⁵ rad
Explanation:
This is a diffraction problem for a slit that is described by the expression
sin θ = m λ
the resolution is obtained from the angle between the central maximum and the first minimum corresponding to m = 1
sin θ = λ / a
as in these experiments the angle is very small we can approximate the sine to its angle
θ = λ / a
In this case, the circular openings are explicit, so the system must be solved in polar coordinates, which introduces a numerical constant.
θ = 1.22 λ / D
where D is the diameter of the opening
let's apply this expression to our case
indicates that the wavelength is λ = 550 nm = 550 10⁻⁹ m
the case of a lot of light D = 2 mm = 2 10⁻³ m
θ₁ = 1.22 550 10-9 / 2 10⁻³
θ₁ = 3.35 10⁻⁴ rad
For the low light case D = 8 mm = 8 10⁻³
θ₂ = 1.22 550 10-9 / 8 10⁻³
θ₂ = 8.39 10⁻⁵ rad
Answer: A
Explanation: Lexy is correct because angle R is between the incident wave, n = 0, and a diffracted wave.
