The time taken by the swimmer was 1 hour.

Why?

Since the swimmer is maintaining an angle of 150° while he was swimming, there were two components of the speed (horizontal and vertical). If we want to calculate the time taken by him to cross the river, we need to calculate the vertical speed and consider that the flow's speed is compensated by his horizontal speed.

We can calculate both components of the speed using the following formula:

HorizontalSpeed=Speed*Cos(150\°)\\\\VerticalSpeed=Speed*Sin(150\°)

Now, calculating we have:

HorizontalSpeed=2\frac{Km}{h} *Cos(150\°)=-\sqrt{3} \frac{Km}{h} \\\\VerticalSpeed=2\frac{Km}{h} *Sin(150\°)=1\frac{Km}{h}

Therefore, we have that the horizontal speed is compesating the flow's speed while his vertical speed is used to cross the river which is 1 Km wide.

Hence, we have that the tame taken is:

Time=\frac{RiverWidth}{VerticalSpeed}=\frac{1Km}{1\frac{Km}{h} } =1h

Have a nice day!

two students are on a balcony 19.6 m above the street. one student throws a ball vertically downward at 14.7 m:ds. at the same i
NARA [144]

A. The difference in the two ball's time in the air is 3 seconds

B. The velocity of each ball as it strikes the ground is 24.5 m/s

C. The balls 0.500 s after they are thrown are 14.7 m apart

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }

\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }

<em>a = acceleration ( m/s² )</em>

<em>v = final velocity ( m/s )</em>

<em>u = initial velocity ( m/s )</em>

<em>t = time taken ( s )</em>

<em>d = distance ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

<u>Given:</u>

Initial Height = H = 19.6 m

Initial Velocity = u = 14.7 m/s

<u>Unknown:</u>

A. Δt = ?

B. v = ?

C. Δh = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<h2>Question A:</h2><h3>First Ball</h3>

h = H - ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

0 = 19.6 - 14.7t - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

0 = 19.6 - 14.7t - 4.9t^2

4.9t^2 + 14.7t - 19.6 = 0

t^2 + 3t - 4 = 0

(t + 4)(t - 1) = 0

(t - 1) = 0

\boxed {t = 1 ~ second}

<h3>Second Ball</h3>

h = H + ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

0 = 19.6 + 14.7t - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

0 = 19.6 + 14.7t - 4.9t^2

4.9t^2 - 14.7t - 19.6 = 0

t^2 - 3t - 4 = 0

(t - 4)(t + 1) = 0

(t - 4) = 0

\boxed {t = 4 ~ seconds}

The difference in the two ball's time in the air is:

\Delta t = 4 ~ seconds - 1 ~ second

\large {\boxed {\Delta t = 3 ~ seconds} }

<h2>Question B:</h2><h3>First Ball</h3>

v^2 = u^2 - 2gH

v^2 = (-14.7)^2 + 2(-9.8)(-19.6)

v^2 = 600.25

v = \sqrt {600.25}

\boxed {v = 24.5 ~ m/s}

<h3>Second Ball</h3>

v^2 = u^2 - 2gH

v^2 = (14.7)^2 + 2(-9.8)(-19.6)

v^2 = 600.25

v = \sqrt {600.25}

\boxed {v = 24.5 ~ m/s}

The velocity of each ball as it strikes the ground is 24.5 m/s

<h2>Question C:</h2><h3>First Ball</h3>

h = H - ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

h = 19.6 - 14.7(0.5) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(0.5)^2

\boxed {h = 11.025 ~ m}

<h3>Second Ball</h3>

h = H + ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

h = 19.6 + 14.7(0.5) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(0.5)^2

\boxed {h = 25.725 ~ m}

The difference in the two ball's height after 0.500 s is:

\Delta h = 25.725 ~ m - 11.025 ~ m

\large {\boxed {\Delta h = 14.7 ~ m} }

The electrical resistance of an element in a platinum resistance thermometer at 100°c, 0°c and room temperature are 75.00Ω, 63.0
Dominik [7]

Answer:

16.6 °C

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Temperature at upper fixed point (Tᵤ) = 100 °C

Resistance at upper fixed point (Rᵤ) = 75 Ω

Temperature at lower fixed point (Tₗ) = 0 °C

Resistance at lower fixed point (Rₗ) = 63.00Ω

Resistance at room temperature (R) = 64.992 Ω

Room temperature (T) =?

T – Tₗ / Tᵤ – Tₗ = R – Rₗ / Rᵤ – Rₗ

T – 0 / 100 – 0 = 64.992 – 63  / 75 – 63

T / 100 = 1.992 / 12

Cross multiply

T × 12 = 100 × 1.992

T × 12 = 199.2

Divide both side by 12

T = 199.2 / 12

T = 16.6 °C

Thus, the room temperature is 16.6 °C

What is the acceleration of a softball if it hits the ground with a force 0.50 kg and hits the catchers glove with a force of 25
Rom4ik [11]

Acceleration of the ball is 50 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of the ball can be found by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

F=ma

where

F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

For the ball in this problem, we have

m = 0.50 kg (mass)

F = 25 N (force)

thereofre, the acceleration of the ball is

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{25}{0.50}=50 m/s^2
