Answer: tortoise

Explanation:

Given the following :

Speed of tortoise = 1m/s

Speed of hare = 3m/s

Mass of hare = 5kg

Mass of tortoise = 20kg

Momentum = product of Mass and velocity

Momentum of hare = mass of hare × Velocity of hare

Momentum of hare = 5kg × 3m/s = 15kgm/s

Momentum of tortoise = mass of tortoise × Velocity of tortoise

Momentum of tortoise = 20kg × 1m/s = 20kgm/s

Therefore, tortoise has a greater momentum than hare.

What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?
podryga [215]

Answer:

Option D. 5.45 Ω

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Resistance 1 (R₁) = 10 Ω

Resistance 2 (R₂) = 20 Ω

Resistance 3 (R₃) = 30 Ω

Voltage (V) = 120 V

Equivalent resistance (R) =?

The equivalent resistance can be obtained as follow:

1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃

1/R = 1/10 + 1/20 + 1/30

Find the least common multiple (lcm) of 10, 20 and 30. The result is 60

Divide 60 by each of the denominators and multiply by their numerators respectively. We have:

1/R = (6 + 3 + 2)/60

1/R = 11/60

Invert

R = 60/11

R = 5.45 Ω

Thus, the equivalent resistance in the circuit is 5.45 Ω

I'm solving for the angle on a right triangle the hypotenuse is 36 and the base is 24 I don't understand how or when to use cos
Alika [10]

Given

hypotenuse is 36

base is 24

Procedure

Cos function (or cosine function) in a triangle is the ratio of the adjacent side to that of the hypotenuse. The cosine function is one of the three main primary trigonometric functions and it is itself the complement of sine(co+sine).

\begin{gathered} \cos \theta=\frac{24}{36} \\ \theta=\cos ^{-1}(\frac{24}{36}) \\ \theta=48.1 \end{gathered}

The answer would be 48 degrees

A ball is thrown straight up in the air.When the ball reaches its highest point, which of the following is true?a. It is in equi
olasank [31]

Answer:

option E.

Explanation:

When the ball is at the highest point the velocity of the ball is zero.

At the height point the kinetic energy is zero and potential energy is maximum.

At maximum point momentum cannot be maximum because velocity is zero.

Acceleration on the ball is equal to acceleration due to gravity on the ball.

Hence, the correct answer is option E.

A resistor rated at 250 k Ω is connected across two D cell batteries (each 1.50 V) in series, with a total voltage of 3.00 V. Th
Andrej [43]

Given Information:  

Resistance = R = 250 Ω

Voltage = V = 3 V

Tolerance =   ±5%

Required Information:  

Maximum current = Imax = ?

Minimum current = Imin = ?

Answer:  

Imax = 12.6 uA

Imin = 11.4 uA

Explanation:  

As we know from Ohm's law

I = V/R

The current will be maximum when R is minimum and the current will be minimum when R is maximum

Rmax = 250,000 + 0.05*250,000

Rmax = 250,000 + 12500

Rmax = 262500 Ω

Rmin = 250,000 - 0.05*250,000

Rmin = 250,000 - 12500

Rmin = 237500 Ω

Imax = V/Rmin

Imax = 3/237500

Imax = 12.6 uA

Imin = V/Rmax

Imin = 3/262500

Imin = 11.4 uA

A motorcycle being driven on a dirt path hits a
Colt1911 [192]
Impulse = mass * change in velocity (change in momentum) = Force * change in time

So, F=(m*change in v)/(change in t)
F=(60*20)/0.5=2400N

Therefore the magnitude of the average force exerted on the cyclist by the haystack is 2.4*10^3N
