A snowboarder travels 150 m down a mountain slope that is 65 degrees above horizontal. What is his vertical displacement?

Physics

choli [55]3 years ago

This can be answered using trigonometric analysis. This sloped path that is 150 m long is the hypotenuse of the triangle. The adjacent angle would then be 65 degrees. Given these:

sin 65 = h / 150

Where: h = vertical displacement = 150 (sin 65)
h = 135.95 meters

Difference between duracell and interstate golf cart batteries
weeeeeb [17]
Duracell batteries are an example of an electrochemical cell that is powered between the reaction of Magnesium and Zinc, occurring in basic conditions (alkaline battery). This type of reaction has a precise output of 1.5 volts, and looks like this:

Zn + 2MnO2 ➡️ ZnO + Mn2O3

It’s not rechargeable.


Golf Cart Batteries are an example of an electrochemical cell that is powered by the reaction between Lead and Sulfuric Acid (Lead-Acid battery). This type of reaction occurs on larger scales than an alkaline battery, and thus can generate a variety of powers depending on how many instruments are present within the battery. The reaction looks like this:

PbO2 + Pb + 2H2SO4 ➡️ 2PbSO4 + H2O

This is a rechargeable cell, but is rather prone to discharging by the environment and surroundings of the battery.

Car a runs a red light and broadsides car b, which is stopped and waiting to make a left turn. car a has a mass of 1,800kg. car
frez [133]

The law of conservation of momentum tells us that momentum is conserved, therefore total initial momentum should be equal to total final momentum. In this case, we can expressed this mathematically as:

mA vA + mB vB = m v

where, m is the mass in kg, v is the velocity in m/s

since m is the total mass, m = mA + mB, we can write the equation as:

mA vA + mB vB = (mA + mB) v

furthermore, car B was at a stop signal therefore vB = 0, hence

mA vA + 0 = (mA + mB) v

1800 (vA) = (1800 + 1500) (7.1 m/s)

<span>vA = 13.02 m/s</span>

Assume that a lightning bolt can be modeled as a long, straight line of current. If 16 C of charge passes by a point in 1.50 x 1
Reptile [31]

Answer:

B = 7.9012*10^{-5}T

Explanation:

To solve the problem, the concepts related to the magnetic field and the current produced in a lightning bolt are necessary.

The current is defined by the load due to time, that is to say

I= \frac{q}{t}

Where,

q= Charge

t = time

So the current can be expressed as:

I = \frac{16}{1.5*10^{-3}}

I = 10666.67A

Once the current is found it is now possible to find the magnetic field, as this is given by the equation,

B =\frac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\frac{I}{r}

Where,

\mu_0 =Permeability Constant

I= Current

r= radius

Replacing the values we have

B=\frac{4\pi*10^{-7}}{2\pi}(\frac{10666.67}{27})

B = 7.9012*10^{-5}T

An object is thrown directly upwards from the ground at a velocity of 9ms. Recalling that the acceleration due to gravity is −gm
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Object is thrown with a velocity of u=9\ m/s

Acceleration due to gravity is -g (i.e. acting downward)

Vertical distance traveled by object is given by

v^2-u^2=2as  

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

at maximum height final velocity is zero

0-(9)^2=2\times (-g)\times (s)

s=\frac{81}{2g}=\frac{40.5}{g}\ m

time taken to reach maximum height

using

v=u+at

0=9-gt

t=\frac{9}{g}\ s

When must a psychological researcher debrief human test subjects?
myrzilka [38]
<span>Psychological researchers must debrief human test subjects </span><span>at the end of every experiment.

The current code of ethics in p</span>sychological research states that researchers absolutely must debrief human test subjects at the end of every study regardless or whether or not harm or deception was involved.

Debriefing a subject after a study is an essential opportunity for the researcher to explain the purpose and aim of the study to the subject, make sure the subject is not harmed or mentally disturbed, clarify why deception was used (if deception was involved) and overall, to clarify any questions or doubts the subject might have.
