Three quarterbacks challenged each other to a throwing competition. They want to see who can throw the ball the furthest. What S

I unit would be most appropriate to measure the competition? Question 1 options: Celsius Gram Meter Liter

bazaltina [42]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Meter

Explanation:

The competition between the three quarterbacks is with respect to how far the ball would be thrown by each person, which is the distance covered by the ball. The thrown ball is an example of projectile, which would move over a certain distance.

With respect to the measure to be used in the competition, the appropriate SI unit is meter. This is the measure of length or distance covered.

Mary and her younger brother Alex decide to ride the carousel at the State Fair. Mary sits on one of the horses in the outer sec
Alex

Answer:

ωM = 1.7 rad/s

vM = 3.4 m/s

ωA = 1.7 rad/s

vA =  1.7  m/s

Explanation:

Calculation of the angular speed (ω)

We use the following formula for circular motion:

ω = θ / t Formula (1)

Where:

ω: angular speed (rad/s)

θ:angle that the particle travels (rad)

t: time interval (s)

Equivalence

1 revolution = 2π rad

Data

θ= 1 revolution = 2π rad

t = 3.7 s

We replace data in the formula (1):

ω = (2π rad) / (3.7s )= 1.7 rad/s

Because the angular speed depends only on the number of turns in a time interval then Mary's angular speed (ωM) is equal to Alex's angular speed (ωA).

ωM = ωA = 1.7 rad/s

Calculation of the  tangential speed (v)

We use the following formula for circular motion:

v = ω*r  Formula (2)

Where:

v : tangential speed (m/s)

ω: angular speed ( rad/s)

r  : radius of the circular path (m)

Data

ωM = ωM = ω= 1.7 rad/s

rM = 2m  : Mary's circular path radius

rA = 1m :  Alex's circular path radius

We apply the formula (2) to calculate v:

vM = ω* rM = (1.7) (2) = 3.4 m/s

vA = ω* rA = (1.7) (1) =  1.7  m/s

\mathfrak{\huge{\pink{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Wave Optics.

Whenever the waves are out of phase they form a DESTRUCTIVE interference.

thus,

Destructive Interference occurs when two waves are out of phase.

A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 50 times as massive and falling at 8.4 m/s, a typical raindrop speed. How fast
kenny6666 [7]

The final velocity after the collision is 8.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, if we consider the system to be isolated (=no external unbalanced forces), the total momentum of the raindrop+mosquito must be conserved before and after the collision.

If the collision is perfectly inelastic, moreover, the raindrop and the mosquito stick together and travel at the same velocity v after the collision.

Mathematically:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v  

where:  

m_1 is the mass of the first mosquito

u_1 = 0 is the initial velocity of the mosquito

m_2 = 50 m_1 is the mass of the raindrop

u_2 = 8.4 m/s is the initial velocity of the raindrop

v is the final combined velocity of the raindrop+mosquito

Re-arranging the equation and substituting, we find:  

m_1 u_1 + 50 m_1 u_2 = (m_1 + 50 m_1) v\\50 m_1 u_2 = 51 m_1 v\\50 u_2 = 51 v\\v=\frac{50}{51}u_2 = \frac{50}{51}(8.4)=8.2 m/s

When an apple falls towards the earth,the earth moves up to meet the apple. Is this true?If yes, why is the earth's motion not n
Anarel [89]

Answer:

True, because unlike the apple we don't have a large as$ refrence point (the earth is too big to notice being pushed)
