Answer:

v2 = 27.3m/s

Explanation:

Assuming forward as positive.

Mass = m1 = 64kg

Let v be the common velocity of the student and the skateboard.

mass of skateboard = m2 = 5.94kg

v = 1.4m/s

Since the skateboard and the student are initially moving together at the same velocity their momentum together is

(m1 + m2)v

Let the final velocity of the student be v1 and the final velocity of the skateboard be v2

v1 = – 1.0m/s (falls backwards that's why the velocity is negative since we are assuming forward as positive)

Then from conservation of momentum, momentum before is equal to momentum after.

(m1 + m2)v = m1v1 + m2v2

m2v2= (m1 + m2)v – m1v1

v2 = ( (m1 + m2)v – m1v1)/m2

v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 – 64×(-1.0))/5.94

v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 + 64×1.0)/5.94

v2 = 27.3m/s

Which of the following criteria can help Linda classify gases as greenhouse gases? gas molecules having three or more atoms gas
ratelena [41]
I think the correct answer would be the third  option. The criteria that could help Linda in classifying whether the gases are greenhouse gases would be gas molecules having at least one oxygen atom. Most of the greenhouse gases has an oxygen atom in their structures especially those that naturally occurs. These gases are CO2, H2O vapor and nitrous oxide.

What is angular velocity
butalik [34]

Answer:

angular velocity(ω) is the rate change of angular displacement.

ω=θ/t and it SI unit is rad/s

Explanation:

this is very similar with the definition of linear velocity (rate of change of displacement). it specifies the angular speed of an object and the axis about which the object is rotating.

Differentiate scalar & vector quantity?
Keith_Richards [23]
\textbf{Hello Friend}


Scalar Quantity :-

→ These are the quantities with magnitude only . These quantities doesn't have to be mentioned with direction

eg.)=> Mass , Temprature .



Vector Quantity :-

→ These quantities are described with both Magnitude and Direction . These quantities follow special type of algebra called Vector algebra .


eg.)=> Force , Displacement

A large container contains a large amount of water. A hole is drilled on the wall of the container, at a vertical distance h = 0
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Velocity = 3.25[m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved if we use the Bernoulli equation: In the attached image we can see the conditions of the water inside the container.

In point 1, (surface of the water) we have the atmospheric pressure and at point 2 the water is coming out also at atmospheric pressure, therefore this members in the Bernoulli equation could be cancelled.

The velocity in the point 1 is zero because we have this conditional statement "The water surface drops very slowly and its speed is approximately zero"

h2 is located at point 2 and it will be zero.

(P_{1} +\frac{v_{1}^{2} }{2g} +h_{1} )=(P_{2} +\frac{v_{2}^{2} }{2g} +h_{2} )\\P_{1} =P_{2} \\v_{1}=0\\h_{2} =0\\v_{2}=\sqrt{0.54*9.81*2}\\v_{2}=3.25[m/s]
