Blue to gray in color and reaching up to 10 feet (3.05 meters) in length and 220 pounds (99.8 kilograms) in weight, the sailfish

is considered the fastest marine creature. These streamlined beasts have been clocked at 68 miles per hour (30.4 meters per second). How far does the sailfish travel in 2 minutes?

Answer:

the distance traveled by the fish is 3648 m

Explanation:

In general, animals have a small period of acceleration, which we will despise after which they travel at a constant speed so we can use the kinematic equations in uniform motion

   

We reduce the units to System SI

      t = 2 min (60s / 1 min) = 120 s

Calculate

       V = x / t

       x= V t

       x = 30.4 120

       x = 3648 m

 

This is the distance traveled by the fish

A net force of -1,000 Newtons is delivered to the object over a time of .02 seconds. Calculate the new velocity of the object.
MariettaO [177]
The change in velocity (v₂ - v₁) is

                <em> (-20) / (the object's mass)</em>.

Call it a crazy hunch, but I can't shake the feeling that there was more
to the question before the part you copied, that mentioned the object's
mass, and its velocity before this force came along.

A circus acrobat is shot out of a cannon with an initial upward speed of 34 ft/s. if the acrobat leaves the cannon 4 ft above th
jok3333 [9.3K]
<h2>It will take 0.125 seconds to reach the net.</h2>

Explanation:

Initial speed, u = 34 ft/s = 10.36 m/s

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = Final height - Initial height = 8 - 4 = 4 ft = 1.22 m

We have equation of motion, s = ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

              s = ut + 0.5 at²

              1.22 = 10.36 x t + 0.5 x -9.81 x t²

              4.905t² - 10.36 t + 1.22 = 0

              t = 1.99 s     or    t = 0.125 seconds

Minimum time is 0.125 seconds.

It will take 0.125 seconds to reach the net.

By what factors does the speed of the elctron exceed that of the proton?<br>​
____ [38]

Answer:

» An electron is lighter than a proton.

<u>explanation</u><u>:</u>

{  =  \: \sf{an \: electron \: has \: formula \:  \: }}{ \bf{ {}^{0}_{  - 1}e }}

hence it's mass number is zero

{  =  \: \sf{an \: electron \: is \: helium \: particle \:  \: }}{ \bf{ {}^{4} _{2}He  }}

hence it's mass number is 4

<u>Therefore</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>proton</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>heavier</u><u> </u><u>than</u><u> </u><u>electron</u>

» An electron has a small charge magnitude than a proton.

<u>Explanation</u><u>:</u>

An electron has charge of -1 while proton has charge of +2, therefore electron is less deflected by any energetic fields than a proton
