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

How can you find the net force if two forces act in opposite directions?
Tresset [83]

Then the magnitude of the net force is the difference between the two forces,
and its direction is the same as the direction of the greater one.

what is the transfer of heat energy by direct contact. A . convection b. radiation c. thermal or heat and d. conduction ​
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

d. conduction ​

Explanation:

Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

In conclusion, conduction typically involves the transfer of heat energy by direct contact between two or more conductors such as a pot and electric cooker.
