Sally is on a canoe that comes to a stop a small distance from the dock. Since it is such a small distance, Sally decides to jum

p to the dock. She makes the jump, but the canoe moves away from her as she jumps. Since Sally is interested to see what happens on other boats, she makes the same jump from a fishing boat that is much larger than the canoe. Which boat will move away from Sally more quickly?
a. The canoe will move away from Sally more quickly because the fishing boat is larger in mass.
b. The fishing boat will move away from Sally more quickly because it is larger in mass.
c. Both boats will move away at the same speed because Sally has not changed mass and momentum must be conserved.
d. It is impossible to predict which boat moves away from Sally more quickly.

Answer:

 v₂> v₃  velocity canoe is more than velocity fishing boat

Explanation:

For this exercise we must define a system consisting of the girl, Sally and the boat, in one case the canoe and in the other the fishing boat; for this system we can use moment conservation

Initial moment. Before the jump

           p₀ = (M + m₂) v

Final moment. After the jump

          p_{f} = M v₁ - m₂ v₂

Where m and v are the masses and speed of the canoe

          p₀ = p_{f}

          (M + m₂) v = M v₁ - m₂ v₂

In the case of changing the canoe for the heaviest fishing boat, the final moment is

          p_{f} = M v₁ - m₃ v₃

          p₀ = p_{f}

           (M + m₃) v = M v₁ - m₃ v₃

Since the canoe is stopped the speed v = 0, we write the speed of each boat

Canoe

          0 = M v₁ - m₂ v₂

          v₂ = M / m₂ v₁

Fishing boat

        0 = M v₁ - m₃ v₃

        v₃ = M / m₃ v₁

Since the masses of the fishing boat (m₃) is greater than the mass of the canoe (m₂) the speed of the fishing boat is less than the speed of the canoe, we can find the relationship between the two speeds

        v₂ / v₃ = m₃ / m₂

Here you can see what  v₂> v₃  velocity canoe is more than velocity fishing boat

It would be really helpful if u help me solving this question. PLEASE!!!

Answer: The students will determine the two fixed points of the thermometer:

Lower fixed point = 0 degree Celsius

Upper fixed point = 100 degree Celsius

Then divide the thermometer with equal intervals

The room temperature will be the point at which the themometric substance remains constant when rising from ice point.

Explanation:

Apparatus available:

Unmarked thermometer

250 cm3 glass beaker

crushed ice 

water

heatproof mat 

clamp, boss and stand

meter rule

Added apparatus

Bunsen burner

Stirrer

Method

The students will determine the two fixed points of the thermometer:

Lower fixed point = 0 degree Celsius

Upper fixed point = 100 degree Celsius

Then divide the thermometer with equal intervals

Procedures

Set up the apparatus of illustrated in the attached figure.

Immerse the unmarked thermometer into the ice in the beaker.

When the level indicated by the thermometric substance remains steady after some time, a mark will be made at that point. This mark will corresponds to the ice point (lower fixed point) and is assigned the value of 0 °C.

You may add little water and continue to stir gently.

The themometric substance will start to rise and stop when it reaches room temperature. Mark the point but do not assign any value

Place the beaker on bunsen burner and boil the water. The themometric substance will continue to rise and remain constant at upper fixed point

This mark will corresponds to the steam point (upper fixed point) and is assigned the value of 100 °C.

Divide between the lower fixed point and upper fixed point into equal intervals. Then you can see the value of room temperature.

How do noise canceling headphones work?
postnew [5]

Answer:

B.) by interfering with sound waves

Explanation:

As we know that the interference of sound waves is of two types

1). constructive interference

2). destructive interference

now we know that constructive interference means the resultant intensity will be more than the intensity of interfering waves as here two waves are in same phase.

In destructive interference the resultant of two waves is given by the minimum resultant of the intensity as here the phase of two waves are opposite to each other.

So we will say that

I = \sqrt{(I_1 + I_2 + 2\sqrt{I_1I_2}cos\theta)}

here in case of noise cancelling headphones we know that the phase of noise is always made in opposite phase with the sound which is used to cancelled the noise.

This will reduce the noise and we will get a clear sound

A particle of charge 2.0 x 10^-8C experiences an upward force of magnitude 4.0 x10^-6 when it is placed in a particular point in
koban [17]

Answer:

a) The electric field at that point is 2.0\times 10^{2} newtons per coulomb.

b) The electric force is 2.0\times 10^{-6} newtons.

Explanation:

a) Let suppose that electric field is uniform, then the following electric field can be applied:

E = \frac{F_{e}}{q} (1)

Where:

E - Electric field, measured in newtons per coulomb.

F_{e} - Electric force, measured in newtons.

q - Electric charge, measured in coulombs.

If we know that F_{e} = 4.0\times 10^{-6}\,N and q = 2.0\times 10^{-8}\,C, then the electric field at that point is:

E = \frac{4.0\times 10^{-6}\,N}{2.0\times 10^{-8}\,C}

E = 2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C}

The electric field at that point is 2.0\times 10^{2} newtons per coulomb.

b) If we know that E = 2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C} and q = 1.0\times 10^{-8}\,C, then the electric force is:

F_{e} = E\cdot q

F_{e} = \left(2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C} \right)\cdot (1.0\times 10^{-8}\,C)

F_{e} = 2.0\times 10^{-6}\,N

The electric force is 2.0\times 10^{-6} newtons.

A mover pushes a 46.0kg crate 10.3m across a rough floor without acceleration. How much work did the mover do (horizontally) pus
Alchen [17]

Answer:

<h3>2,321.62Joules</h3>

Explanation:

The formula for calculating workdone is expressed as;

Workdone = Force * Distance

Get the force

F = nR

n is the coefficient of friction = 0.5

R is the reaction = mg

R = 46 ( 9.8)

R = 450.8N

F = 0.5 * 450.8

F = 225.4N

Distance = 10.3m

Get the workdone

Workdone = 225.4 * 10.3

Workdone  = 2,321.62Joules

<em>Hence the amount of work done is 2,321.62Joules</em>
