Answer:

d) The trampoline pushes back up on the gymnast.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion; for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force. The action force and reaction force are reciprocal to one another i.e. they act oppositely to one another. The reaction force acts in an opposite direction to the action force and vice versa.

In this question, a gymnast pushed down on a trampoline during a routine. This is called the ACTION FORCE. In conformity to Newton's third law, the trampoline pushes back up on the gymnast. This opposite force is called the REACTION FORCE.

When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1650 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,

Andre45 [30]

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of household line, V = 110 V

Power of the hairdryer, P = 1650 W

During use, the current is about 1.95 cm from the user's hand.

(a) Power is given by :

$P=V\times I\\\\I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{1650\ W}{110\ V}\\\\I=15\ A$

(b) Again the power is given by :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

R is resistance of the dryer

$R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(110)^2}{1650}\\\\R=7.34\ \Omega$

(c) The magnetic field produced by the dryer at the user's hand is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}\\\\B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 15}{2\pi \times 1.95\times 10^{-2}}\\\\B=1.53\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Hence, this is the required solution.

The primary reason a light bulb emits light is due to

Mashutka [201]

The primary reason a light bulb emits light is due to the heating of the resistance in the filament of the light bulb. In fact, the power dissipated in a resistor is given by
 $P=I^2 R$
where I is the current and R the resistance. The larger the resistance or the current in the resistor, the larger the power dissipated. Due to this dissipation of power, the temperature of the filament becomes very high, and the resistance becomes incandescent, emitting light.

A roller coaster car is elevated to a height of 30 m and released from rest to roll along a track. At a certain time T it is at

Naddika [18.5K]

Explanation:

Initial energy = final energy + work done by friction

PE = PE + KE + W

mgH = mgh + 1/2 mv² + W

(800)(9.8)(30) = (800)(9.8)(2) + 1/2 (800) v² + 25000

v = 22.1 m/s

Without friction:

PE = PE + KE

mgH = mgh + 1/2 mv²

(800)(9.8)(30) = (800)(9.8)(2) + 1/2 (800) v²

v = 23.4 m/s

A car moves 50km in the first 30 minutes and 50km in the second 30 minutes and continues in this way which motion is this ------

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Uniform rectilinear movement (m. r. u.)

Explanation:

It is a continuous movement without acceleration, that is, it moves at a constant speed. The speed does not change over time, for this reason, there is no change in acceleration.

Vf = final velocity = 50/30 [km/s] = 1.67 [km/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 50/30 [km/s] = 1.67 [km/s]
