A man holding a rock sits on a sled that is sliding across a frozen lake (negligible friction) with a speed of 0.480 m/s. The to
SpyIntel [72]
This is a problem of conservation of momentum

Momentum before throwing the rock: m*V = 96.0 kg * 0.480 m/s = 46.08 N*s

A) man throws the rock forward

=>

rock:
m1 = 0.310 kg
V1 = 14.5 m/s, in the same direction of the sled with the man

sled and man:
m2 = 96 kg - 0.310 kg = 95.69 kg
v2 = ?

Conservation of momentum:
momentum before throw = momentum after throw

46.08N*s = 0.310kg*14.5m/s + 95.69kg*v2

=> v2 = [46.08 N*s - 0.310*14.5N*s ] / 95.69 kg = 0.434 m/s

B) man throws the rock backward

this changes the sign of the velocity, v2 = -14.5 m/s

 46.08N*s = - 0.310kg*14.5m/s + 95.69kg*v2

v2 = [46.08 N*s + 0.310*14.5 N*s] / 95.69 k = 0.529 m/s

A boat travels north across a river at a velocity of 22 meters/second with respect to the water. The river's velocity is 2.2 met
MArishka [77]
The magnitude of the resultant is

         √ (22² + 2.2²)  =  √ (484 + 4.84)  =  √488.84  =  22.11 m/s .

The direction of the resultant is

         tan⁻¹(22N / 2.2E)  =  tan⁻¹(10)  =  5.71° east of north .

How is thermal energy naturally transferred between objects?
Sladkaya [172]

The second law of thermodynamics establishes restrictions on the flow of thermal energy between two bodies. This law states that the energy does not flow spontaneously from a low temperature object T1, to another object that is at a high temperature T2.

For example. Suppose you place your cell phone on the table. Your phone is at a temperature of 40 ° C and the table is at 19 ° C. Then, it is impossible for the table to spontaneously transfer its thermal energy to the telephone, and so that the table gets colder and the telephone warmer.


Finally we can say that the correct option is B: From the hotter object to the cooler object
