Answer:

Runner will run for 210m

Step by Step Explanation:

According to Newton's first of motion,

Vf=Vi+at

Given is

the speed with which runner is running will be Vi, he is running with accelertion a=4.2m/s2 fot time t=10sec

Vf will be 0 because runner will stop after winning the race

we will find Vi from equation 1,

Vi=Vf-at

   = 0- 4.2*10

   =-42 m/s  (negative sign is showing decceleration)

So, Vi=42 m/s

According to Newton's third of motion,

2aS= Vf^2-Vi^2

S is distance, he will cover before stopping,

2(4.2)S= 0- 42^2

S=1764/8.4

S=210m

Runner will run for 210m

Given a 45 45 90 prism with index of 1.5, immersed in air. The hypotenuse acts as the reflecting face by TIR. A ray of light ent
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

83.6°

Explanation:

For the ray to be totally internally reflected, at the boundary, the angle of refraction is 90. Using the law of refraction where

n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂ where n₁ = refractive index of prism = 1.5, θ₁ = critical angle in prism, n₂ = refractive index of air = 1 and θ₂ = refractive angle = 90°.

So, substituting these values into the equation,

n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂

1.5 × sinθ₁ = 1 × sin90

1.5 × sinθ₁  = 1

sinθ₁ = 1/1.5

sinθ₁ = 0.6667

θ₁  = sin*(0.6667)

θ₁  = 41.8°

So, for total internal reflection, an incidence angle of 41.8° is required. So, a full convergence angle of 2 × 41.8° = 83.6° is required for the whole bundle of rays.

A plate drops onto a smooth floor and shatters into three pieces of equal mass.Two of the pieces go off with equal speeds v at r
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Speed of the this part is given as

v_3 = \sqrt2 v

Also the direction of the velocity of the third part of plate is moving along 135 degree with respect to one part of the moving plate

Explanation:

As we know by the momentum conservation of the system

we will have

P_1 + P_2 + P_3 = P_i

here we know that

P_1 = P_2

the momentum of two parts are equal in magnitude but perpendicular to each other

so we will have

P_1 + P_2 = \sqrt{P^2 + P^2}

P_1 + P_2 = \sqrt2 mv

now from above equation we have

P_3 = -(P_1 + P_2)

mv_3 = -(\sqrt 2 mv)

v_3 = \sqrt2 v

Also the direction of the velocity of the third part of plate is moving along 135 degree with respect to one part of the moving plate

A student pushes a 2.85 kg cart causing it to accelerate at a rate of 4.9 m/s squared .What amount of force must the student hav
uysha [10]
In order to find the force (F), you would have to use the formula for it:
F=ma
where m is mass and a is acceleration.
In the problem, the mass is 2.85kg and the acceleration is 4.9m/s^2.
Therefore,
F=2.85kg(4.9m/s^2)
F=13.965kg(m/s^2)
Since N=kg(m/s^2)
F=13.965N
And because the problem requires that we use only 2 significant figures,
F=13N
Therefore, the student must exert 13N of force.
