A kitten sits in a lightweight basket near the edge of a table. A person accidentally knocks the basket off the table. As the ki

tten and basket fall, the kitten rolls, turns, kicks, and catches the basket in its claws. The basket lands on the floor with the kitten safely inside. If air resistance is negligible, what is the acceleration of the kitten-basket system while the kitten and basket are in midair? A The acceleration is directed downward with magnitude less than g because the basket is light. B The acceleration is directed downward with magnitude equal to g because the system is a projectile. C The acceleration fluctuates because of the rolling, turning, and kicking motion of the kitten. D The acceleration cannot be determined without knowing how hard the basket is pushed.

Answer:

the answer is B

Explanation: this was actually an ap exam question a few years back. the reason for answer B is that the only force being applied to the kitten is the force of gravity after being pushed.

Assume the following values: d1 = 0.880 m , d2 = 1.11 m , d3 = 0.560 m , d4 = 2.08 m , F1 = 510 N , F2 = 306 N , F3 = 501 N , F4

Answer:

= 2630.6 N.m

Explanation:

(FR)x = ΣFx = -F4 = -407 N

(FR)y = ΣFy =-F1-F2 -F3 = -510 - 306 - 501 = -1317 N

(MR)B =ΣM + Σ(±Fd)

= MA + F1(d1 +d2) + F2d2 - F4d3

= 1504 + 510(0.880+1.11) +306(1.11) - 407(0.560)

= 2630.64 N.m (counterclockwise)

A light wave traveling through medium 1 strikes a boundary with medium 2 at at a 45 degree angle. the light then enters the seco
Alona [7]

Here light ray strikes to interface at an angle of 45 degree and then refracts into other medium such that it will bend towards boundary.

So here the angle of incidence will be less than the angle of refraction as light moves towards the boundary after refraction which mean it will bend away from the normal

here it can be said that medium 2 will be rarer then medium 1

So here the possible options are

1. Water  

Air

2. Diamond  

Air

So in above two options medium 1 is denser and medium 2 is rarer

The machine in the figure is ideal and an effort force of
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

Let the distance from the box to the pivot be c.

Let the distance from the pivot to the effort be y.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Effort force (Fₑ) = 7 N

Force of resistance (Fᵣ) = 14 N

Distance from the box to the pivot (c) = 0.75 m

Distance from the pivot to the effort (y) =?

Clockwise moment = Fₑ × y

Anticlock wise moment = Fᵣ × c

Clockwise moment = Anticlock wise moment

Fₑ × y = Fᵣ × c

7 × y = 14 × 0.75

7 × y = 10.5

Divide both side by 7

y = 10.5 / 7

y = 1.5 m

Therefore, the distance from the pivot to the effort is 1.5 m

What’s the answer to this question
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

space = 66.24 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that the average speed is defined as the relationship between a space traveled over a certain time.

Av = \frac{space}{time}

where:

space [m]

Av = average velocity = 3.6 [m/s]

time = 18.4 [s]

space = 3.6*18.4\\space = 66.24 [m]
