Answer:

Wf = –750J

Explanation:

The full solution can be found in the attachment below.

This problem involves the concepts of conservation of momentum and energy.

The potential energy of the sled and child combined is constant since thehy are moving in a level surface.

To find the initial velocity of the sled with child we use the principle of momentum conservation to calculate the v1 which is the commovelocity of the child and sled.

Incomplete question

Complete question

A 50.-kilogram child running at 6.0 meters per second jumps onto a stationary 10.-kilogram sled. The sled is on a level frictionless surface.

After a short time, the moving sled with the child aboard reached a rough level surface that exerts a constant frictional force of 54 Newtons on the sled. How much work must be done by friction to bring the sled with the child to a stop.

Explanation:

The mass of the boy is

Mb=50kg

Mass of the sled

Ma=10kg

Velocity of the boy

Speed vb=6m/s

Now, we need to know the velocity of the boy and the sled Vt

Using law of momentum

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

Mb×Vb=(Mb+Ms)Vt

50×6=(50+10)Vt

300=60Vt

Vt=300/60

Vt=5m/s

The kinetic energy of both the boy and the sled is the workdone by friction to to stop the sled

Kinetic enemy is given as

K.E=½mv²

K.E=½×60×5²

K.E=30×25

K.E=750J

So the work done by friction to stop the boy and the sled is -750J

A 1200-kg car initially at rest undergoes constant acceleration for 9.4 s, reaching a speed of 11 m/s. It then collides with a s
Natalka [10]

To solve this problem we will apply the principle of conservation of energy and the definition of kinematic energy as half the product between mass and squared velocity. So,

KE_i = KE_f

KE_f = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Here,

m = Mass

V = Velocity

Replacing,

KE_f = \frac{1}{2} (12000)(11)^2

KE_f = 72600J

Therefore the  final kinetic energy of the two car system is 72.6kJ

psychology chapter 7, principles of learning; I am the process whereby animals are taught a complicated response by being reward

<span>Answer: Burrhus Frederic Skinner's Operant Conditioning.

</span><span>B.F. Skinner  believed that to understand behavior, in the best way, is to look at the root causes or reasons of an action and its outcomes. 
</span>
Skinner proposes the Law of Effect-Reinforcement. Here,he differentiated the positively reinforced behavior or the strengthened behavior, the negatively reinforced behavior (removal of the unpleasant experience), and weakened behavior because of punishment.  
<span>
In positive reinforcement,  behavior is strengthened through providing an outcome, an effect that an individual finds rewarding. Negative reinforcement also strengthens behavior because the unpleasant experience was removed. Punishment on the other hand is an opposite to reinforcement. Instead of increasing the response, it eliminates it or weakens it.

What happens in a global convection cell? apex​
zysi [14]

Answer:

In a global convection cell less –dense air at the equator rises and flows towards the poles. And from pole, the dense air sinks down and flows back towards the equator.... This movement of air is also supported by the Earth's rotation known as Coriolis Effect.

Lab: Motion
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer: In this lab we wanted to know how motion can be described. So the hypothesis is if the starting height of a sloped racetrack is increased, then the speed at which a toy car travels along the track will increase because the toy car will have a greater acceleration. My prediction is that cars travel faster on higher tracts. So the heighten the track was intentionally manipulated. So it is the independent variable the speed of the car is the dependent variable. The speed at the first quarter checkpoint is 1.09 m/s. The speed at the second quarter checkpoint is 1.95 m/s. The speed at the third quarter checkpoint is 2.373.36 m/s. The speed at the finish line is  2.803.00 m/s. The average speed increases as the height increases.

The cars on the higher track travel farther than the cars on the lower track, in the same time.

This means that the cars on the higher track have a greater average speed than those on the lower track. This is demonstrated by the

slope of the higher track line being greater than the slope of the lower track line.

Explanation: put it in notes then send it to files to compress it to submit it.

A completely inelastic collision occurs between two balls of wet putty that move directly toward each other along a vertical axi
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

h = 2.64 meters      

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of one ball, m_1=3\ kg

Speed of the first ball, v_1=20\ m/s (upward)

Mass of the other ball, m_2=2\ kg

Speed of the other ball, v_2=-12\ m/s (downward)

We know that in an inelastic collision, after the collision, both objects move with one common speed. Let it is given by V. Using the conservation of momentum to find it as :

V=\dfrac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

V=\dfrac{3\times 20+2\times (-12)}{3+2}

V = 7.2 m/s

Let h is the height reached by the combined balls of putty rise above the collision point. Using the conservation of energy as :

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mV^2

h=\dfrac{V^2}{2g}

h=\dfrac{7.2^2}{2\times 9.8}

h = 2.64 meters

So, the height reached by the combined mass is 2.64 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
