<u>Answer</u>

= 16 m/s


<u>Explanation</u>

The law conservation of energy states that, momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

momentum before collision = (0.40 × v) + (0.40 × 0)

= 0.4v Km/s

momentum after collision = (0.40+0.40) × 8.0

= 0.8 ×8.0

= 6.4 Km/s

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

0.4v Km/s = 6.4 Km/s

v = 6.4/0.4

= 16 m/s

This problem can be solved through the Inelastic Collision Formula:
mass1 x in.velocity1 + mass2 x in.velocity2 = mass1+mass2 (final velocity)

Substituting the values, we have:
0.40 kg x in.velocity1 + 0.40 kg x 0 m/s = 0.80 kg (8.0m/s)

Solving for the unknown initial velocity of the moving hockey puck we have:
in.velocity1 = (6.4 kgm/s - 0) / 0.40 kg
= 16 m/s

The speed of water flowing through the 4in diameter section of the piping system is 3ft/s. What is the volume flow rate of water
olga_2 [115]
1 ft =12 in 
4 in = 0.333 ft 
volume = (п/4)*(0.333)² = 0.087 ft²
vol. flow = spead *volume
              =3 ft/s * 0.087 ft² 

vol flow = 0.261 ft³/s

A horizontal force of 750 N is needed to overcome the force of static friction between a level floor and a 250-kg crate. What is
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The acceleration of the crate is 1.8 m/s² so the answer is a.

Explanation:

The very first thing you must do when solving this problem is to draw a free body diagram. (The body diagram is attached to this answer)

So once we got the free body diagram, we can analyze it and build our sum of forces in the x and y directions. Notice that according to the diagram, there are 4 forces to this problem, Normal (N), Weight (W), kinetic friction (fk) and the 750N force.

As one may see in the free body diagram, two of the forces are vertical forces: N and W, so we can use them to build a sum of forces:

Starting with the sum of forces in the y-direction, we get:

ΣF_{y}=0

We set the sum equal to zero because there is no movement in the y-direction, so the system is in vertical equilibrium.

so the sum will be:

N-W=0

when solving for N we get that:

N=W

where W is found by multiplying the mass of the crate by the acceleration of gravity:

N=250kg*9.8m/s²

N=2450N

Once we found the normal force, we can use it to find the kinetic friction which is given by the following formula:

f_{k}=Nμ

where μ is the kinetic friction coefficient.

So we get that the kinetic friction is:

f_{k}=2450N*0.12

so

f_{k}=294

With this information we can go ahead and find the sum of horizontal forces:

ΣF_{x}=ma

In this case the sum is equal to mass times acceleration because the crate is moving horizontally due to the action of a force, so it will have an acceleration.

so the sum of forces look like this:

750N-f_{k}=ma

so

750N-294N=(250kg)a

when solving for a we get:

a=\frac{759N-294N}{250kg}\\ \\a=1.8m/s^{2}

so the crate's acceleration is 1.82m/s².

What do zooplankton and krill have in common?
serious [3.7K]
<h2><em>Hello, thank you for choosing brainly today. My name is Ethan and I'll be solving your question. </em><em><u>"What do zooplankton and krill have in common?"</u></em></h2>

Krill and plankton are two groups of organisms found in the ocean. Krill are species of crustacean related to shrimp, and serve as a very important link in the food chain of the sea. Plankton consist of a larger group of organisms with much more variety, including bacteria, algae, protozoans, jellyfish and some species of cephalopods.

Propulsion

The primary factor that determines whether a species is plankton or not is propulsion. Plankton organisms lack the ability to swim against the tide, and instead float from place to place on sea currents. They may be capable of some movement, and some types of plankton can even hunt for food, but none is powerful enough to make its own headway through the ocean. Adult krill are capable of swimming against currents, but their larvae and eggs fall into the plankton category.

Variation

Krill are crustaceans of the Euphausiacea order, which consists of 86 different species. Plankton, on the other hand, can come from a wide variety of different species and orders. Plankton fall into three broad categories, depending on their primary function. Phytoplankton are plant-like organisms, capable of photosynthesis. Zooplankton are animal plankton species that get their nutrients by eating other microscopic organisms. Bacterioplankton are the smallest plankton, and often serve as food for zooplankton and other lifeforms.

Appearance

Krill species have similar characteristics and generally resemble tiny shrimp. Most species reach around 2 centimeters (0.8 inches) as adults, while the largest species can reach sizes of up to 15 centimeters (5.9 inches). Plankton, on the other hand, consists of organisms of many different shapes and sizes. The smallest categories include microscopic viruses, protozoans, small crustaceans, and other tiny organisms. At the larger end of the scale, megaplankton are any plankton over 2 centimeters (0.8 inches) in size, and include large animals, such as cephalopods and jellyfish. The largest plankton is the lion's mane jellyfish, which can reach 2.5 meters (8.2 feet) in diameter and grow tentacles more than 36.5 meters (120 feet) long.

Role

Plankton and krill serve similar, but slightly different, roles in the food chain. Phytoplankton synthesize nutrients, while bacterioplankton recycle nutrients from decomposing matter in the ocean, providing some of the fundamental sources of nutrition for all ocean creatures. Zooplankton serve to concentrate those nutrients by eating smaller plankton and serving as food for larger creatures. Krill are one step up in the food chain, eating plankton and serving as a nutrient bridge from microscopic life forms to larger fish and mammals.

An increase in the magnitude of velocity is??
bazaltina [42]
It means the speed of the object is increasing
and
there is a positive acceleration in the direction of the velocity
hence
there is a force acting on the object, in the direction of the velocity
