<h2>Answer: C) He could have thrown the bag of money sideways, creating a  horizontal reaction force on himself.</h2>

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, when two bodies interact between them, appear equal forces and opposite senses in each of them.

To understand it better:

Each time a body or object exerts a force on a second body or object, it (the second body) will exert a force of equal magnitude and direction but in the opposite direction on the first.

So, if the rich man had pushed the bag of money horizontally opposite of where he was, he could have saved himself.

In classical physics, consider a 2 kg block hanging on a spring with a spring constant of 50 N/m. Ignore air resistance. The blo
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

v = 0

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by taking into account:

- The equation for the calculation of the period in a spring-masss system

T = \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }     ( 1 )

- The equation for the velocity of a simple harmonic motion

x = \frac{2\pi }{T}Asin(\frac{2\pi }{T}t)   ( 2 )

where m is the mass of the block, k is the spring constant, A is the amplitude (in this case A = 14 cm) and v is the velocity of the block

Hence

T = \sqrt{\frac{2 kg}{50 N/m}} = 0.2 s

and by reeplacing it in ( 2 ):

v = \frac{2\pi }{0.2s}(14cm)sin(\frac{2\pi }{0.2s}(0.9s)) = 140\pi  sin(9\pi ) = 0

In this case for 0.9 s the velocity is zero, that is, the block is in a position with the max displacement from the equilibrium.

A quarterback throws a football toward a receiver with an initial speed of 20 m/s at an angle of 30∘ above the horizontal. At th
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

a) In order to catch the ball at the level at which it is thrown in the direction of motion.

b)Speed of the receiver will be 7.52m/s

Explanation:

Calculating range,R= Vo^2Sin2theta/g

R= (20^2×Sin(2×30)/9.8 = 35.35m

Let receiver be(R-20) = 35.35-20= 15.35m

The horizontal component of the ball is:

Vox= Vocostheta= 20× cos30°

Vox= 17.32m/s

Time taken to coverR=35.35m with 17.32m/s will be:

t=R/Vox= 35.35/17.32

t= 2.04seconds

b)Speed required to cover 15.35m at 2.04seconds

Vxreciever= d/t = 15.35/2.04 = 7.52m/s

Alenkasestr [34]

A. During long jump athlete runs before taking the jump by doing so he provides himself a larger inertia.

<h3>What is inertia?</h3>

Inertia is the reluctance of an object to stop moving once in motion or start moving when it is at rest.

When an athlete runs before taking the jump, he is trying to increase his inertia, that is his reluctance to stop, thereby increasing his forward motion or jump.

Thus, during long jump athlete runs before taking the jump by doing so he provides himself a larger inertia.

1. When does raising the temperature of a gas increase its pressure? when volume is increased and the number of particles is con
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

when volume and the number of particles are constant

Explanation:

Gay Lussac law states that when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is given by;

PT = K

\frac{P1}{T1} = \frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}

The ideal gas law is the equation PV = nRT

Where;

P is the pressure.

V is the volume.

n is the number of moles of substance.

R is the ideal gas constant.

T is the temperature.

Generally, raising the temperature of an ideal gas would increase its pressure when volume and the number of particles are constant.

This ultimately implies that, when volume and the number of particles are held constant, there would be a linear relationship between the temperature and pressure of a gas i.e temperature would be directly proportional to the pressure of the gas. Thus, an increase in the temperature of the gas would cause an increase in the pressure of the gas at constant volume and number of particles.
