Answer:

20 m/s westward

Explanation:

Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:

v_B = +5 m/s is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)

v_C = -15 m/s is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy

Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

v_B = +5 m/s

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

v_C' = v_C - v_B = -15 m/s - (+5 m/s) = -20 m/s

and the direction will be westward (negative sign).

When a parachutist jumps from an airplane, he eventually reaches a constant speed, called the terminal speed. Once he has reache
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

None of the above forces on air drag on him is equal to his weight

Explanation:

In the velocity-time graph,the gradient of the curve where it is flatten shows the parachutist reaches the terminal velocity when it reaches terminal velocity which means the parachutist reaches constant velocity or speed,indicating that the acceleration of free fall(g) is zero.And according to the resultant force formula weight - air drag= mass*acceleration. so when accelerate is zero,resultant force is zero. And hence the equation will be like this: weight= air drag

Name two examples where the cohesive force dominates over the adhesive force and vice versa​
lidiya [134]
Attractive forces between molecules of the same type are called cohesive forces. ... Attractive forces between molecules of different types are called adhesive forces. Such forces cause liquid drops to cling to window panes, for example.

A smooth circular hoop with a radius of 0.800 m is placed flat on the floor. A 0.300-kg particle slides around the inside edge o
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a)11.25 J

b)Number of revolution = 1

Explanation:

Given that

Radius ,r= 0.8 m

m= 0.3 kg

Initial speed ,u= 10 m/s

final speed ,v= 5 m/s

a)

Initial energy

KE_i=\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2

KE_i=\dfrac{1}{2}0.3\times 10^2

KEi= 15 J

Final kinetic energy

KE_f=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

KE_f=\dfrac{1}{2}0.3\times 5^2

KEf=3.75 J

The  energy transformed from mechanical to internal = 15 - 3.75 J = 11.25 J

b)

The minimum value to complete the circular arc

 V=\sqrt{r.g}

Now by putting the values

V=\sqrt{0.8\times 10}

V= 2.82 m/s

So kinetic energy KE

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mV^2

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}0.3\times 2.82^2

KE=1.19 J

ΔKE= KEi - KE

ΔKE= 15- 1.19 J

ΔKE=13.80 J

The minimum energy required to complete 2 revolutions = 2 x 11.25 J

                                                                                                    = 22.5 J

Here 22.5 J is greater than 13.8 J.So the particle will complete only one revolution.

Number of revolution = 1

The electrostatic force between the two ions is 2.9\cdot 10^{-10} N

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged particle is given by Coulomb's law:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q_1, q_2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

In this problem, the ion of sodium has a charge of

q_1 = +e = +1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

while the ion of chlorine has a charge of

q_2 = -e = -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

And the distance between the two ions is

r=282 pm = 282\cdot 10^{-12} m

Substituting, we find the electrostatic force between the two ions:

F=(8.99\cdot 10^9) \frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})}{(282\cdot 10^{-12})^2}=-2.9\cdot 10^{-10} N

where the negative sign simply means that the force is attractive, since the two ions have opposite charge.
