A 706-N man stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius 8.0 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of a lack of fr

iction between his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 1.2-kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 8.0 m/s. How long does it take him to reach the south shore?

Answer:

t=62 s

Explanation:

Applying the conservation of linear momentum formula:

(m1+m2)*v_{o1}=m1*v_{f1}+m2*v_{f2}

the initial velocity is zero, we can calculate the man's mass using the gravitational force formula:

F_g=m.g\\\\m=\frac{706N}{9.81}\\\\m=72.0kg

now:

m*v_{f1}=-m_b*v_b\\\\V_{f1}=-\frac{m_b*v_b}{m}\\\\V_{f1}=-\frac{1.2kg*8.0m/s}{72.0kg}\\\\V_f=-0.13m/s

That is 0.13m/s due south.

because there is no friction, the man will maintain a constant velocity, so:

d=v*t\\t=\frac{d}{v}\\t=\frac{8m}{0.13m/s}\\\\t=62s

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

d. This statement is false. She and the Space Station share the same orbit and will stay together unless they are pushed apart.

Explanation:

In astronomy, orbit is simply a path of an object around another object in a space. That is, orbit is a path of a body that revolves around a gravitating center of mass. Examples of an orbit is are satellite around a planet, orbit around a center of galaxy, planet around the sun, and among others.

On the other hand, space station refers to a spacecraft that can support a group of human for long time in the orbit. Another names for space stations are orbital space station and orbital station.

Therefore, an astronaut goes on a space walk outside the Space Station shares the same orbit with the space station and they will stay together unless they are pushed apart.

Consider a roller coaster begins 15m above the ground. If the cart has a mass of 75kg, what is the velocity of the cart halfway
SashulF [63]

Answer:

v = 12.12 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the cart, m = 75 kg

The roller coaster begins 15 m above the ground.

We need to find the velocity of the cart halfway to the ground. Let the velocity be v. Using the conservation of energy at this position, h = 15/2 = 7.5 m

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 7.5} \\\\v=12.12\ m/s

So, the velocity of the cart is 12.12 m/s.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Work done = 0.5*m*[(v2)^2 - (v1)^2]
where m is mass,
v2 and v1 are the velocities.

Given that m = 1.50 x 10^3 kg, v2 = -15 m/s (decelerates), v1 = 25 kg,

Work done = 0.5 * 1.50 x 10^3 * ((-15)^2 - 25^2) = 3 x 10^5 joules

Just ignore the negative value for the final result because work is a scalar quantity.
