Two soccer players kick a soccer ball back and forth along a straight line. The first player kicks the ball 16 m to the right to

the second player. The second player kicks the ball to the left weakly; it only moves 3.1 m before stopping. (Consider the right to be the positive direction. Where applicable, indicate the direction with the sign of your answer. All distances are in meters.)

Answer:

a

The total distance is d_t =19.1 m

b

The displacement is

  D_t = 12.9m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

        Distance traveled by the ball for first player d_f = 16m to the right

        Distance  traveled by the ball for second player d_s = 3.1 m to the left

       

The total distance traveled by the ball is mathematically represented as

                   d_t = d_f + d_s

Substituting values

                  d_t = 16 + 3.1

                  d_t =19.1 m

The displacement is mathematically represented as

              D_t  = d_f -d_s

This is because displacement deal with direction and from the question we are told that right is positive and left is negative

          Substituting values  

                D_t = 16 -3.1

                 D_t = 12.9m

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. Complete the following statemen
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4

Explanation:

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. The centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{R}

We need to find how the "centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4"

It can be done by keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4 such that,

R' = R/4

New centripetal acceleration will be,

a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R'}

a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R/4}

a'=4\times \dfrac{v^2}{R}

a'=4\times a

So, the centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4.

How far did a frog jump if he travels at a rate of 2.1 m/s for 10 seconds?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

21 m

Explanation:

The motion of the frog is a uniform motion (constant speed), therefore we can find the distance travelled by using

d=vt

where

d is the distance covered

v is the speed

t is the time

The frog in this problem has a speed of

v = 2.1 m/s

and therefore, after t = 10 s, the distance it covered is

d=(2.1)(10)=21 m

On your first day at work as an electrical technician, you are asked to determine the resistance per meter of a long piece of wi
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

0.06\Omega/m

Explanation:

Firstly, when you measure the voltage across the battery, you get the emf,

E = 13.0 V

In order to proceed we have to assume that the voltmeter offers no loading effect, which is a valid assumption since it has a very high resistance.

Secondly, the wires must be uniform. So the resistance per unit length is constant (say z). Now, even though the ammeter has very little resistance it cannot be ignored as it must be of comparable value/magnitude when compared to the wires. This is can seen in the two cases when currents were measured. Following Ohm's law and the resistance of a length of wire being proportional to it's length, we should have gotten half the current when measuring with the 40 m wire with respect to the 20 m wire (I=\frac{V}{R}). But this is not the case.

Let the resistance of the ammeter be r

Hence, using Ohm's law we get the following 2 equations:

\frac{13}{20z+r} =7.6   .......(1)

\frac{13}{40z+r} =4.5     ......(2)

Substituting the value of r from (2) in (1), we have,

13=152z+7.6\times\frac{13-180z}{4.5}

which simplifying gives us, z=0.0589\Omega/m\approx0.06\Omega/m (which is our required solution)

putting the value of z in either (1) or (2) gives us, r = 0.5325 \Omega

What does this tell you about the direction and magnitude of the acceleration acting on the cannonball throughout its duration o
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Direction remains the same but velocity changes.

Explanation:

This tell us about the direction and magnitude of the acceleration acting on the cannonball throughout its duration of flight that its direction remains the same but its magnitude of the acceleration is continuously changing. The cannonball moves in the direction in which the cannon was fired while the velocity is highest after the fire but decreases when goes higher and when it comes back to the ground so its velocity increases against so we can say that both positive and negative acceleration occurs. Positive acceleration means increase in the magnitude of velocity whereas negative acceleration means decrease in velocity.
