Which body exerts the force that propels the sprinter, the blocks or the sprinter?

Physics
1 answer:
kicyunya [14]3 years ago
5 0
Answer: The blocks

Explanation:
When the sprinter takes off, he/she presses hard on the block.
The blocks apply an equal and opposite force to the sprinter according to Newton's 3rd law of motion.
The reaction force from the blocks gives the sprinter the initial acceleration to begin the race.

Pls help<br> What graph indicates no reference to direction of motion, and explain why.
Komok [63]

Answer:

graph A

Explanation:

the slope of the distance-time graph is speed, speed is a scalar (with magnitudes but no direction)

but the slope for the velocity time graph is acceleration, acceleration is vector quantity ( has magnitude and direction)

A piece of metal has attained a velocity of 107.8 m/sec after fallinf for 10 seconds what is its initial velocity
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

7.8 m/s

Explanation:

Here object is falling with a gravitational acceleration there  for we can take acceleration = 10 m/ s² and its constant through out the motion there for we can use motion equation

V = U + at

V - Final velocity

U - Initial velocity

a - acceleration

t - time

V=U+at

107.8=U + 10×10

  = 7.8 m/s

Assuming that the circuit is in the steady state, what is the total energy stored in the two capacitors? j
Neporo4naja [7]

<span>The total energy stored is the sum of the energy stored in the capacitors. If the capacitors  are series connected capacitors, then the charging current is the same for both capacitors. This means that each capacitor stores the same energy and the stored energy is two times the energy of any of the capacitors.</span>

a wire of a certain material has resistance r and diameter d a second wire of the same material and length is found to have resi
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

<h2>d₂ = 3d</h2><h2>The diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire.</h2>

Explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the resistivity of an object to find the diameter.

Resistivity P = RA/L

R is the resistance of the material

A is the cross sectional area

L is the length of the material

Since A = πd²/4

P = R( πd²/4)/L

P = Rπd²/4L ... 1

If the second wire of the same material and length is found to have resistance R/9, the resistivity of the second material will be;

P₂ = (R/9)A₂/L₂

P₂ = (R/9)(πd₂²/4)/L₂

P₂ = (Rπd₂²/36)/L₂

P₂ = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂

Since the length and resistivity are the same;

P = P₂  and L =L₂

Equating 1 and 2;

Rπd²/4L =  (Rπd₂²)/36L₂

Rπd²/4L =  (Rπd₂²)/36L

d² = d₂²/9

d₂² = 9d²

Taking the square root of both sides;

√d₂² = √9d²

d₂ = 3d

Therefore the diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire
