Physics
1 answer:
grandymaker [24]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

option A is correct as 1 yard consist of 0.9144 meter which is less than one meter

Explanation:

from the above given statement option 1 is true

1 yard is equal to 0.9144 meter

while

1 mile is equal to 1.60934 km

1 foot is equal to 30.48 centimeter

1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeter

therefore all these units [left one] are larger than their respective conversion [ right one unit]

therefore option A is correct as 1 yard consist of 0.9144 meter which is less than one meter

A parachutist of mass 20.1 kg jumps out of an airplane at a height of 662 m and lands on the ground with a speed of 7.12 m/s. Th
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

1.30\cdot 10^5 J

Explanation:

The energy lost due to air friction is equal to the mechanical energy lost by the parachutist during the fall.

The initial mechanical energy of the parachutist (at the top) is equal to his gravitational potential energy:

E_i=mgh

where

m = 20.1 kg is his mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h = 662 m is the initial heigth

The final mechanical energy (at the bottom) is equal to his kinetic energy:

E_f=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

v = 7.12 m/s is the final speed of the parachutist

Therefore, the energy lost due to air friction is:

\Delta E=E_i-E_f=mgh-\frac{1}{2}mv^2=(20.1)(9.8)(662)-\frac{1}{2}(20.1)(7.12)^2=1.30\cdot 10^5 J

The x component of vector is 8.7 units, and its y component is -6.5 units. The magnitude of is closest to
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

F = 10.86 units

Explanation:

The magnitude of a vector in terms of the magnitude of its rectangular components is given by the following formula:

F = √(Fₓ² + Fy²)

where,

F = Magnitude of the Vector = ?

Fₓ = magnitude of the x-component of vector = 8.7 units

Fy = magnitude of y component of vector = - 6.5 units

Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:

F = √[(8.7 units)² + (- 6.5 units)²]

F = √(117.94 units²)

<u>F = 10.86 units</u>

A sled with a mass of 25.0 kg rests on a horizontal sheet of essentially frictionless ice. It is attached by a 5.00-m rope to a
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The value is  F  =  34.3 \  N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the shed is  m  =  25 \  kg

    The length of the rope is  l = 5.0 \  m

    The angular speed of the shed is w = 5 rev/minute = \frac{2* \pi * 5}{60 }= 0.524 \  rad/sec

Generally the force exerted on the shed is mathematically represented as

     F  =  m  *  w^2 *  l

=>  F  =  25  *  0.524^2 *  5

=>  F  =  34.3 \  N
