Speed is the size (absolute value) of the velocity.

Speed is a scalar.  Velocity is a vector.

A 4.0-m-diameter playground merry-go-round, with a moment of inertia of
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

7.1 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

d = diameter of merry-go-round = 4 m

r = radius of merry-go-round = \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{4}{2} = 2 m

I = moment of inertia = 500 kgm²

w_{i} = angular velocity of merry-go-round before ryan jumps = 2.0 rad/s

w_{f} = angular velocity of merry-go-round after ryan jumps = 0 rad/s

v = velocity of ryan before jumping onto the merry-go-round

m = mass of ryan = 70 kg

Using conservation of angular momentum

Iw_{i} - m v r = (I + mr^{2})w_{f}

(500)(2.0) - (70) v (2) = (I + mr^{2})(0)

1000 = 140 v

v = 7.1 ms⁻¹

5. What is the velocity of a Nolan Catholic football player if he runs 200.0 m in 24.0 s?
Degger [83]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed {\sf{8.33 \: m \:/s \: }}}}}

Explanation:

Distance travelled = 200 metre

Time taken = 24 second

Velocity = ?

<u>Finding </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>velocity</u><u> </u>

\boxed{ \sf{velocity =  \frac{distance \: travelled \: }{time \: taken}}}

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{velocity =  \frac{200 \: m}{24 \: s} }}

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{velocity = 8.33 \: m/s}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!

Estimate the volume of a piece of molecular cloud that has the same amount of water as your body.
noname [10]

Question:

The water molecules now in your body were once part of a molecular cloud. Only about onemillionth of the mass of a molecular cloud is in the form of water molecules, and the mass density of such a cloud is roughly 2.0×10−21 g/cm^3.

Estimate the volume of a piece of molecular cloud that has the same amount of water as your body.

Answer:

The volume of cloud that has the same density as the amount of water in our body is 1.4×10²⁵ cm³

Explanation:

Here, we have mass density of cloud  =  2.0×10⁻²¹ g/cm^3

Density = Mass/Volume

Volume = Mass/Density =   If the mass is 40 kg and the body is made up of 70% by mass of water, we have

28 kg water = 28000 g

Therefore the Volume = 28 kg/ 2.0×10⁻²¹ g/cm^3 = 1.4×10¹⁹ m³ = 1.4×10²⁵ cm³.

Therefore, the volume of cloud that has the same density as the amount of water in our body = 1.4×10²⁵ cm³.

<em>Anything</em> that's dropped through air is somewhat affected by air resistance.  But, out of that list, the leaf and the balloon are the items that will be affected by air resistance enough so that you can plainly see it.

If you spend some time thinking about it, you can kind of understand why airplane wings and boat propellers are shaped more like leafs and balloons than like bricks and rocks.
