Answer:

Final speed of boat + man is 1.66 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that there is no friction on the system or there is no external force on this system

So here we can use momentum conservation here

mv = (m + M)v_f

so we have

m = 85 kg

M = 135 kg

v = 4.30 m/s

now we have

85 \times 4.30 = (85 + 135) v

v = 1.66 m/s

Elements in a period have _____________.
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Elements in a period have wide range of chemical properties.

Explanation:

  • Period is the row of chemical elements's arrangement in the periodic table. It is numbered from 1 to 7.
  • In period as we move towards right the atomic number of element constantly increases along with the change in chemical properties.
  • As we move from left towards right in period, the valence electron number regularly increases in every element.
  • This valence electron differs the reactivity of the elements.

In 1993 Ileana Salvador of Italy walked 3.0km in under 12min. Suppose that during her walk Salvador is observed to steadily incr
padilas [110]

The distance covered is 115 m

Explanation:

The motion of Ileana is a uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration), therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

s=(\frac{u+v}{2})t

where

s is the distance covered

u is the initiaal velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time elapsed

In this problem, we have:

u = 4.20 m/s

v = 5.00 m/s

t = 25.0 s

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to find the distance covered:

s=(\frac{4.20+5.00}{2})(25.0)=115 m

A bottle lying on the windowsill falls off and takes 4.95 seconds to reach the ground. The distance from the windowsill to the g
Liula [17]
The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is 
                        D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²) 
           Distance  =  (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)

We want to see how the time will be affected 
if  ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does. 
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.                                                      D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²)

Multiply each side by  2 :         2 D  =            g    t²  

Divide each side by ' g ' :      2 D/g =                  t² 

Square root each side:        t = √ (2D/g)

Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:

  -- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'

                                             and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .-- 

They don't change by the same factor, because  1/g  is inside the square root.  So 't' changes the same amount as  √1/g  does.

Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly  1/6  the value of gravity on the surface of the Earth.

So we expect ' t ' to increase by  √6  =  2.45 times.

It would take the same bottle  (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the surface of the Moon.
