A 30.0 kg dolphin decelerates from 12.0 to 7.00 m/s in 2.60 s to join another dolphin in play. What average force (in N) was exe

rted to slow him if he was moving horizontally? (The gravitational force is balanced by the buoyant force of the water. Assume the positive direction is in the direction of motion. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Answer:

Force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

Explanation:

We have force is the product of mass and acceleration.

That is    

                 Force = Mass x Acceleration

                         F = ma

Mass of dolphin, m = 30 kg

We have equation of motion, v = u + at

Final velocity, v = 7 m/s

Initial velocity, u = 12 m/s

Time, t = 2.60 s

Substituting

                   7 = 12 + a x 2.6

                    a = -1.92 m/s²

Force,   F = 30 x -1.92 = -57.69 N

So the force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

What happens to the rock structure during each of type of change?
EastWind [94]
Previous rocks melt and collide and to form igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks disintegrate due to weather disruptions and get carried away by water, where they form sedimentary rock strata by lithification.
Igneous and sedimentary change by heat and pressure to form metamorphic rocks.
Metamorphic rocks melt and become igneous rocks.

The tops of the towers of the Golden Gate Bridge in San franciscoo , are 227 m above the water. Suppose a worker drops a 655 g w
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is 1425.11 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the wrench is, m=655\ g=0.655\ kg

Height of fall is, h=227\ m

Force of resistance is, F=0.141\ N

Now, the total energy at the top is equal to the potential energy of the wrench at the top since the kinetic energy at the top is 0.

Now, potential energy at the top is given as:

U=mgh\\U=0.655\times 9.8\times 227\\U=1457.113\ J

Now, the potential energy at the top is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom and some energy is wasted in overcoming the resistance force by air.

Potential Energy = Kinetic energy + Energy to overcome resistance.

⇒ Kinetic energy = Potential Energy - Energy to overcome resistance.

Energy to overcome resistance force is the work done by the wrench against the resistance force and is given as:

W_{res}=Fh=0.141\times 227=32.007\ J

Therefore, Kinetic energy at the bottom is given as:

K=U-W_{res}\\\\K=1457.113\ J - 32.007\ J\\\\K=1425.106\approx1425.11\ J

Hence, the kinetic energy of the wrench be when it hits the water is 1425.11 J.

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a)   m_v = m_s ((\frac{w_o}{w})² - 1) ,  b)  m_v = 1.07 10⁻¹⁴ g

Explanation:

a) The angular velocity of a simple harmonic motion is

           w² = k / m

where k is the spring constant and m is the mass of the oscillator

let's apply this expression to our case,

silicon only

         w₉² = \frac{K}{m_s}

         k = w₀² m_s

silicon with virus

         w² = \frac{k}{m_s + m_v}

          k = w² (m_v + m_s)

in the two expressions the constant k is the same and q as the one property of the silicon bar, let us equal

           w₀²  m_s = w² (m_v + m_s)

           m_v = (\frac{w_o}{w})²  m_s - m_s

           m_v = m_s ((\frac{w_o}{w})² - 1)

b) let's calculate

          m_v = 2.13 10⁻¹⁶ [(\frac{20.4}{2.85})² - 1)]

          m_v = 1.07 10⁻¹⁴ g
