A water-skier is being pulled by a tow rope attached to a boat. As the driver pushes the throttle forward, the skier accelerates

. A 72.0-kg water-skier has an initial speed of 5.10 m/s. Later, while moving along a straight line, the speed increases to 12.1 m/s. Determine the work done by the net external force acting on the skier.

Answer:

4334.4 J

Explanation:

Work done equals to kinetic energy change

KE=½mv²

Change in KE is given by

∆KE=½m(v²-u²)

Where m is mass of water-skier, KE is kinetic energy, ∆KE is the change in kinetic energy, v is final velocity and u is initial velocity.

Substituting 72 kg for m, 12.1 m/s for v and 5.10 m/s for u then

∆KE=½*72(12.1²-5.10²)=4334.4J

Therefore, the work done by the net external force acting on the skier is equal to 4334.4 J

What is current of 12 ohm? help me pleasee​
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Current for 12 ohms = 2.5

Explanation:

Ohm's Law:

Voltage = IR

Current = V/R

Resistance = V/I

Therefore, current = 30V/12 Ohms

30/12 = 2.5

So current for 12 ohms = 2.5

I hope this helps :>

Un gallo se pavonea en línea recta en el techo. Su movimiento se muestra en la siguiente gráfica de la posición horizontal, x, c
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Entonces, velocidad instantánea = | v | = 0,25 m / s

Explanation:

pregunta completa

Por favor, encontrar el archivo adjunto

Solución

La velocidad instantánea está dada por,

v = dx / dt = pendiente de la curva x-t

aquí, del gráfico:

en x = 1 m ---> t = 8 s

en x = 3 m ---> t = 0 s

entonces, dx = 1-3 = -2 m

dt = 8-0 = 8 s

Entonces,

v = -2/8

v = -0,25 m / s

Dado que, pseed es una cantidad escalar.

Entonces, velocidad instantánea = | v | = 0,25 m / s

Which of the following factors will negatively impact the rate of diffusion of a molecule?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

A low difference in the concentration of the molecule across the media

Explanation:

Diffusion is a type of passive transport where the molecules move in the influence of concentration gradient of diffusing molecules i.e. from the higher concentration region to the lower concentration region. There are some factors which affect the rate of diffusion, these are written below -

  1. Mass of diffusing molecule - lighter molecules diffuse faster and heavier one diffuse relatively slower.
  2. Concentration gradient - rate of diffusion is higher if the difference in concentration of the diffusing particles is larger in the two regions.
  3. Distance traveled - molecules diffuse faster if they need to travel little distance during diffusion.
  4. Temperature - rate of diffusion will be greater at higher temperatures because the movement of diffusing molecules gets increased.
  5. Solvent density - rate of diffusion tend to be lower if the solvent has higher density.

Looking at these factors we can conclude that the second statement in the question tells about a negative impact regarding the diffusion because due to low difference in concentration across the two media, the rate of diffusion will be lower.
