What is the velocity of a narwhal that swims 76 kilometers North in 3 hours

Physics

tino4ka555 [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<h3>25km/hr</h3>

Explanation:

Velocity is the change in displacement of a body with respect to time.

Velocity - Displacement/time

Given

displacement = 76km

Time = 3hours

Substitute the given parameters into the formula;

Velocity = 75km/3hrs

Velocity = 25km/hr

Hence the velocity of the narwhal is 25km/hr

A key falls from a bridge that is 45 m above the water. the key falls straight down and lands in a model boat traveling at a con
erastova [34]

Let the key is free falling, therefore from equation of motion

h = ut +\frac{1}{2}gt^2..

Take initial velocity, u=0, so

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2.

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2 \\\ t =\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

As velocity moves with constant velocity of 3.5 m/s, therefore we can use formula

d= v \times t

From above substituting t,

d = v \times \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }.

Now substituting all the given values and g = 9.8 m/s^2, we get

d = 3.5 \ m/s \times \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 45 m}{9.8 m/s^2} } = 10.60 m.

Thus, the distance the boat was from the point of impact when the key was released is 10.60 m.

Today, scientists believe that the main reason the Earth has had periodic ice ages is:____________.
horsena [70]

Answer:

Today, scientists believe that the main reason the earth has had periodic ages is that the climate of earth is controlled by the difference in heating of it's surface by the sun. As for example, the equatorial regions are the warmest as the sun is vertically overhead of those areas and the polar regions where the sun is at the extreme angels are the coldest ones.

A student holds a bike wheel and starts it spinning with an initial angular speed of 9.0 rotations per second. The wheel is subj
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

\Delta t = 8 s

Explanation:

As we know that the angular acceleration of the wheel due to friction is constant

so we can use kinematics

\theta = \omega_i t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

so we have

(65 \times 2\pi) = (2\pi \times 9)(10) + \frac{1}{2}(\alpha)(10^2)

130\pi = 180\pi + 50 \alpha

\alpha = -\pi rad/s^2

now time required to completely stop the wheel is given as

\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t

0 = (2\pi \times 9) + (-\pi) t

t = 18 s

now time required to stop the wheel is given as

\Delta t = 18 - 10

\Delta t = 8 s
