Answer:

D. Calculate the area under the graph.

Explanation:

The distance made during a particular period of time is calculated as (distance in m) = (velocity in m/s) * (time in s)

You can think of such a calculation as determining the area of a rectangle whose sides are velocity and time period. If you make the time period very very small, the rectangle will become a narrow "bar" - a bar with height determined by the average velocity during that corresponding short period of time. The area is, again, the distance made during that time. Now, you can cover the entire area under the curve using such narrow bars. Their areas adds up, approximately, to the total distance made over the entire span of motion. From this you can already see why the answer D is the correct one.

Going even further, one can make the rectangular bars arbitrarily narrow and cover the area under the curve with more and more of these. In fact, in the limit, this is something called a Riemann sum and leads to the definition of the Riemann integral. Using calculus, the area under a curve (hence the distance in this case) can be calculated precisely, under certain existence criteria.

A skater with a mass of 72 kg is traveling east at 5.8 m/s when he collides with another skater of mass 45 kg heading 60° south

Akimi4 [234]

The final velocity is 5.87 m/s

Explanation:

Given-

mass, $m_{1}$ = 72 kg

speed, $v_{1}$ = 5.8 m/s

$Mass_{2}$ , $m_{2}$ = 45 kg

$speed_{2}$ , $v_{2}$ = 12 m/s

Θ = 60°

Final velocity, v = ?

Applying the conservation of momentum:

$m_{1}$ X $v_{1}$ + $m_{2}$ X $v_{2}$ = ( $m_{1}$ + $m_{2}$ ) v

72 X 5.8 + 45 X 12 X cos 60° = (72 + 45) v

v = 417.6 + 540 X $\frac{0.5}{117}$

v = 417.6 + $\frac{270}{117}$

v = 5.87 m/s

The final velocity is 5.87 m/s

4. An electric iron has a

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

a) W = 750 J

b) W = 2250 J

c) t = 2 sec

5. Answered in explanation

Explanation:

The formula of power is given as:

P = W/t

where,

P = Power

W = Work Done

t = Time Taken

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 1 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/1 sec

W = 750 J

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 3 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/3 sec

W = (750 W)(3 sec)

W = 2250 J

Here,

P = 750 W

t = ?

W = 1500 J

Therefore,

750 W = 1500 J/t

t = 1500 J/750 W

t = 2 sec

According to Kinetic Particle Theory, the molecules are tightly packed with each other, by strong inter-molecular forces and they can only vibrate at their position. While, molecules or particles in liquids have lesser attractive forces among them. They can move in layers and can take the shape of any container. This is the reason why solid has a definite shape and liquid has none.

In the context of the loop and junction rules for electrical circuits, a junction is: Group of answer choices where a wire is co

o-na [289]

In the context of the loop and junction rules for electrical circuits, a junction is where three or more wires are joined.

Answer: Option 2

Explanation:

An electrical circuits consists of many points like branch, loop, junction, series, bridge, etc. So, loops are the ones where the output of one circuit will act as feedback of the same circuit. If two or more wires passes through a single point, then that point is termed as junction.

If two or three junction connect each other they are termed as branch. Like these several other parameters are there with different rules in the circuit system. For electrical circuits, junction and loop rules state that a junction is the point where more wires joined together.

A ball is launched with initial speed v from the ground level up a frictionless hill. The hill becomes steeper as the ball slide

Triss [41]

Answer:

H(max) = (v²/2g)

Explanation:

The maximum height the ball will climb will be when there is no friction at all on the surface of the hill.

Normally, the conservation of kinetic energy (specifically, the work-energy theorem) states that, the change in kinetic energy of a body between two points is equal to the work done in moving the body between the two points.

With no frictional force to do work, all of the initial kinetic emergy is used to climb to the maximum height.

ΔK.E = W

ΔK.E = (final kinetic energy) - (initial kinetic energy)

Final kinetic energy = 0 J, (since the body comes to rest at the height reached)

Initial kinetic energy = (1/2)(m)(v²)

Workdone in moving the body up to the height is done by gravity

W = - mgH

ΔK.E = W

0 - (1/2)(m)(v²) = - mgH

mgH = mv²/2

gH = v²/2

H = v²/2g.
