Two passengers are on a moving sidewalk at the airport. Passenger A is

Physics
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

V = - 2[m/s]

Explanation:

This is a classic problem of relative velocities, in order to solve it we must understand each of the velocities, given in the initial data of the problem.

VA = velocity of passenger A, = 1.5[km/h], it is the same velocity of the sidewalk

VB = 2 + 1.5 = 3.5 [km/h], that is the velocity observed by a person outside from the sidewalk.

And from the perspective of passenger B the speed of passanger A is:

VA-VB = - 2 [m/s]

It means that the passenger B is seen how passenger A is getting close to him and then passed.

Two forces act on an object. One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N direct
xeze [42]

Answer:

8 N North.

Explanation:

Given that,

One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N directed south.

We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the object.

Let North is positive and South is negative.

Net force,

F = 10 N +(-2 N)

= 8 N

So, the magnitude of net force on the object is 8 N and it is in North direction (as it is positive). Hence, the correct option is (d) "8N north".

A Thomson's gazelle can run at very high speeds, but its acceleration is relatively modest. A reasonable model for the sprint of
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = 4.2 m/s²

Time = 6.5 s

Suppose we need to find the gazelles top speed

The speed is equal to the product of acceleration and time.

We need to calculate the gazelles top speed

Using formula of speed

v=at

Where, v = speed

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v=4.2\times6.5

v=27.3\ m/s

Hence, The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

A spring gun consists of a spring inside a plastic tube with spring constant, k. The spring can be compressed 20 cm from its equ
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer: The spring constant is K=392.4N/m

Explanation:

According to hook's law the applied force F will be directly proportional to the extension e produced provided the spring is not distorted

The force F=ke

Where k=spring constant

e= Extention produced

h=2m

Given that

e=20cm to meter 20/100= 0.2m

m=100g to kg m=100/1000= 0.1kg

But F=mg

Ignoring air resistance

assuming g=9.81m/s²

Since the compression causes the plastic ball to poses potential energy hence energy stored in the spring

E=1/2ke²=mgh

Substituting our values to find k

First we make k subject of formula

k=2mgh/e²

k=2*0.1*9.81*2/0.1²

K=3.921/0.01

K=392.4N/m
