Answer:

6m/s

Explanation:

The mosquito will have a speed of 6 m/s.

if the speed of the mosquito and breeze was in opposite direction, we will subtracted them from each other and the result will be the speed of mosquito moving in the direction of the higher speed  (between the breeze and mosquito). while if they are both moving in the same direction the speed of the mosquito will be the sum of both the speed of the mosquito and breeze thus the mosquito and breeze are moving in the same direction so we just sum it up (3m/s + 3m/s = 6m/s).

18. Un avión de rescate de animales que vuela hacia el este a 36.0 m/s deja caer una paca de
Alona [7]

Answer:

Definimos momento como el producto entre la masa y la velocidad

P = m*v

(tener en cuenta que la velocidad es un vector, por lo que el momento también será un vector)

Sabemos que el peso de la paca de heno es 175N, y el peso es masa por aceleración gravitatoria, entonces.

Peso = m*9.8m/s^2 = 175N

m = (175N)/(9.8m/s^2) = 17.9 kg

Ahora debemos calcular la velocidad de la paca justo antes de tocar el suelo.

Sabemos que la velocidad horizontal será la misma que tenía el avión, que es:

Vx = 36m/s

Mientras que para la velocidad vertical, usamos la conservación de la energía:

E = U + K

Apenas se suelta la caja, esta tiene velocidad cero, entonces su energía cinética será cero y la caja solo tendrá energía potencial (Si bien la caja tiene velocidad horizontal en este punto, por la superposición lineal podemos separar el problema en un caso horizontal y en un caso vertical, y en el caso vertical no hay velocidad inicial)

Entonces al principio solo hay energía potencial:

U = m*g*h

donde:

m = masa

g = aceleración gravitatoria

h = altura  

Sabemos que la altura inicial es 60m, entonces la energía potencial es:

U = 175N*60m = 10,500 N

Cuando la paca esta próxima a golpear el suelo, la altura h tiende a cero, por lo que la energía potencial se hace cero, y en este punto solo tendremos energía cinética, entonces:

10,500N = (m/2)*v^2

De acá podemos despejar la velocidad vertical justo antes de golpear el suelo.

√(10,500N*(2/ 17.9 kg)) = 34.25 m/s

La velocidad vertical es 34.25 m/s

Entonces el vector velocidad se podrá escribir como:

V = (36 m/s, -34.25 m/s)

Donde el signo menos en la velocidad vertical es porque la velocidad vertical es hacia abajo.

Reemplazando esto en la ecuación del momento obtenemos:

P = 17.9kg*(36 m/s, -34.25 m/s)  

P = (644.4 N, -613.075 N)

Answer:

emf will also be 10 times less as compared to when it has fallen 40 \mathrm{m}

Explanation:

We know, from faraday's law-

e m f=-N \frac{\Delta \Phi}{\Delta T}

and \Phi=B . A

So, as the height increases the velocity with which it will cross the ring will also increase. (v=\sqrt{2 g h})

Given

\mathrm{V} 1(\text { Speed at } 40 \mathrm{m})=2 \mathrm{x} \mathrm{V} 2(\text { speed at } 10 \mathrm{m})

\sqrt{2 g h_{2}}=2 \times \sqrt{2 g h_{1}}=28.28 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

Now, from 40 \mathrm{cm}

V_{3}=\sqrt{2 g h_{3}}=\sqrt{2 \times 10 \times 0.4}=2.82 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

From equation a and b we see that velocity when dropped from 40 \mathrm{m} is 10 times greater when height is 40 \mathrm{cm} so, emf will also be 10 times less as compared to when it has fallen 40 \mathrm{m}

Why is it so good for scientists to be skeptical
IceJOKER [234]
Its good for a scientist to be skeptical because they dont willingly accept new ideas without thoroughly going over the research themselves and attempting to disprove a theory. skeptical scientists often reveal new information through doing their own examinations of a concept, which is why they are valuable scientists
