Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Just like how cold air falls and warm air rises the same is with water.

Also the places with the coldest water is the north and south pole. The equator is relatively always warm so yeah.

An athlete jumping vertically on a trampoline leaves the surface with a velocity of 8.5 m/s upward. what maximum height does she
Mumz [18]
<span>Her center of mass will rise 3.7 meters. First, let's calculate how long it takes to reach the peak. Just divide by the local gravitational acceleration, so 8.5 m / 9.8 m/s^2 = 0.867346939 s And the distance a object under constant acceleration travels is d = 0.5 A T^2 Substituting known values, gives d = 0.5 9.8 m/s^2 (0.867346939 s)^2 d = 4.9 m/s^2 * 0.752290712 s^2 d = 3.68622449 m Rounded to 2 significant figures gives 3.7 meters. Note, that 3.7 meters is how much higher her center of mass will rise after leaving the trampoline. It does not specify how far above the trampoline the lowest part of her body will reach. For instance, she could be in an upright position upon leaving the trampoline with her feet about 1 meter below her center of mass. And during the accent, she could tuck, roll, or otherwise change her orientation so she's horizontal at her peak altitude and the lowest part of her body being a decimeter or so below her center of mass. So it would look like she jumped almost a meter higher than 3.7 meters.</span>

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1.73 m/s²

3.0 cm

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the yo-yo.  There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and tension force T pulling up 10° from the vertical.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T cos 10° − mg = 0

T cos 10° = mg

T = mg / cos 10°

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

T sin 10° = ma

mg tan 10° = ma

g tan 10° = a

a = 1.73 m/s²

Draw a free body diagram of the sphere.  There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and air resistance D pushing up.  At terminal velocity, the acceleration is 0.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

D − mg = 0

D = mg

½ ρₐ v² C A = ρᵢ V g

½ ρₐ v² C (πr²) = ρᵢ (4/3 πr³) g

3 ρₐ v² C = 8 ρᵢ r g

r = 3 ρₐ v² C / (8 ρᵢ g)

r = 3 (1.3 kg/m³) (100 m/s)² (0.47) / (8 (7874 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²))

r = 0.030 m

r = 3.0 cm

A 10 kg bear is running to the right at 10 m/s. He crashes into another 10 kg bear running to the left at -5 m/s. They collide a
faust18 [17]

Answer:

<em>Total momentum is conserved</em>

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of Momentum </u>

The momentum is a physical magnitude that measures the product of the object's velocity by its mass. The total momentum of a system is the sum of all its components' individual momentums. The two-bear system starts with a total moment of  

p=m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(10)(10)+(10)(-50)=50\ kg.m/s

When both bears stick together, the total mass is 20 kg, and the new momentum is

p'=(20)(2.5)=50 \ kg.m/s

We have assumed both bears move to the right after the collision. In this situation, the total momentum is conserved
