To get off a frozen lake, a 70 kg person removes his shoe of mass 0.175 kg and throws it horizontally away from the shore at a v

elocity of 3.2 m/s. If the person is 5.15 m from the shore, how long do they take to reach the shore?

Answer:

the person will be in the shore at 10.73 minutes after launch the shoe.

Explanation:

For this we will use the law of the lineal momentum.

L_i = L_f

Also,

L = MV

where M is de mass and V the velocity.

replacing,

M_i V_i = M_{fp}V_{fp} + M_{fz}V_{fz}

wher Mi y Vi are the initial mass and velocity, Mfp y Vfp are the final mass and velocity of the person and Mfz y Vfz are the final mass and velocity of the shoe.

so, we will take the direction where be launched the shoe as negative. then:

(70)(0) = (70-0.175)(V_fp) + (0.175)(-3.2m/s)

solving for V_fp,

V_fp = \frac{(3.2)(0.175)}{69.825}

V_fp = 0.008m/s

for know when the person will be in the shore we will use the rule of three as:

1 second -------------- 0.008m

t seconds-------------- 5.15m

solving for t,

t = 5.15m/0.008m

t = 643.75 seconds = 10.73 minutes

Which of the following devices is associated with the reception of radio signals?
ki77a [65]
What are the "following" devices ? ?
I think they're a list of choices that you have but aren't sharing.

A few devices associated with the reception of various types of
radio signals include the resonant tank, the local oscillator, the
mixer, the detector, the coherer, the discriminator, the parabolic
reflector, the lecher wires, the audio transducer, the demultiplexer,
and ... my personal guess ... the 'antenna' or 'aerial'.
