Explanation:

Let the east direction to be i^ and north direction be j^.

Thus displacement of the man S=8i^+6j^

So, magnitude of displacement ∣S∣=62+82=100=10 m

If a student flicks a stationary 0.1 kg ball with 5N of force for 0.1 seconds. What is its final

Alisiya [41]

5m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball = 0.1kg

Force on the ball = 5N

time taken = 0.1s

Unknown:

final speed of the ball = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law "the net force on a body is the product of its mass and acceleration".

Force = mass x acceleration equation 1

Acceleration =

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity

T is the time taken

U = O since it is a stationary body;

a = $\frac{V}{T}$

Input "a" into equation 1

F = m x $\frac{V}{T}$

5 = 0.1 x $\frac{V}{0.1}$

V = 5m/s

Today chemistry is based on the law ofwhat is the matter

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

One scientific law that provides the foundation for understanding in chemistry is the law of conservation of matter. It states that in any given system that is closed to the transfer of matter (in and out), the amount of matter in the system stays constant.

g A loop circuit has a resistance of R1 and a current of 2 A. The current is reduced to 1.4 A when an additional 2.2 Ω resistor

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

R1 = 5.13 Ω

Explanation:

From Ohm's law,

V = IR............... Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = resistance.

From the question,

I = 2 A, R = R1

Substitute into equation 1

V = 2R1................ Equation 2

When a resistance of 2.2Ω is added in series with R1,

assuming the voltage source remain constant

R = 2.2+R1, and I = 1.4 A

V = 1.4(2.2+R1)................. Equation 3

Substitute the value of V into equation 3

2R1 = 1.4(2.2+R1)

2R1 = 3.08+1.4R1

2R1-1.4R1 = 3.08

0.6R1 = 3.08

R1 = 3.08/0.6

R1 = 5.13 Ω

Jeff is part of a trekking team. As he climbs a hill, he drops his water bottle, which has a mass of 0.25 kilograms.

The vertical height from where Jeff dropped the bottle is 10m.

<h3>What is free falling?</h3>

When an object is released from rest in free air considering no friction, the motion is depend only on the acceleration due to gravity, g.

If we drop an object of mass m near the Earth surface from a height h, it has initial mechanical energy(P.E) of

U =mgh

When the object strikes the ground, all the potential energy converted into kinetic energy.

k.E = 1/2mv²

where v is the speed just before hitting the ground.

From energy conservation principle, initial and final mechanical energy are equal.

mgh = 1/2mv²

Given is Jeff climbs a hill. He drops his water bottle, which has a mass of 0.25 kilograms. The bottle slides down the hill and is moving at a velocity of 14 meters/second the instant it hits the ground.

The height from which bottle could fall is

h = v²/2g

Substitute the values, we get

h = (14)²/(2x9.81)

h =9.99 m

Thus, vertical height from where Jeff dropped the bottle is approximately 10m.
