Answer:
The time for final 15 cm of the jump equals 0.1423 seconds.
Explanation:
The initial velocity required by the basketball player to be able to jump 76 cm can be found using the third equation of kinematics as

where
'v' is the final velocity of the player
'u' is the initial velocity of the player
'a' is acceleration due to gravity
's' is the height the player jumps
Since the final velocity at the maximum height should be 0 thus applying the values in the above equation we get

Now the veocity of the palyer after he cover'sthe initial 61 cm of his journey can be similarly found as

Thus the time for the final 15 cm of the jump can be found by the first equation of kinematics as

where symbols have the usual meaning
Applying the given values we get

The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "A.tectonic activity concentrated in certain areas." A piece of evidence did Alfred Wegener use to develop the theory of continental drift is that <span>A.tectonic activity concentrated in certain areas</span>
Because plastic and rubber are insulators.
Answer:
(a) a= 0.139 m/s²
(b) d= 4.45 m
(c) vf= 1.1 m/s
Explanation:
a) We apply Newton's second law:
∑F = m*a Formula (1)
∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)
m : mass (kg)
a : acceleration (m/s²)
Data
F₁= +2.05 * 10³ N : forward push by a motor
F₂= -1.87* 10³ N : resistive force due to the water.
m= 1300 kg
Calculation of the acceleration of the boat
We replace data in the formula (1):
∑F = m*a
F₁+F₂= m*a


a= 0.139 m/s²
b) Kinematics of the boat
Because the boat moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formulas:
d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² Formula (2)
vf= v₀+at Formula (3)
Where:
d:displacement in meters (m)
t : time interval (s)
v₀: initial speed (m/s)
vf: final speed (m/s)
a: acceleration (m/s²
)
Data
v₀ = 0
a= 0.139 m/s²
t = 8 s
Calculation of the distance traveled by the boat in 8 s
We replace data in the formula (2)
d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t²
d= 0+ (1/2)*(0.139)*(8)²
d= 4.45 m
c) Calculation of the speed of the boat in 8 s
We replace data in the formula (3):
vf= v₀+at
vf= 0+( 0.139)*(8)
vf= 1.1 m/s
