You are in a contest with your friends to see who can drive a golf ball the farthest. should you hit a "line drive" (low to the

ground) or a shot with a very high angle? explain.

Line drive would be more farthest from the very high angle shot because when we increase the angle of flight the range started to increase and at some point it becomes maximum and that angle is 45° after that as you go on increasing the angle it won't be covering more distance as compared to the max at (45°) .

While running, a person dissipates about 0.60 J of mechanical energy per step per kilogram of body mass. If a 61 kg person devel
liraira [26]

Answer:

2.66m/s

Explanation:

information we have

power: 65W

work per step per kilogram: 0.60J

mass: 61kg

length of a running step: 1.5m

---------------

the formula for power is:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where W is the work and t is time.

time is also defined as: t=\frac{distance}{velocity}=\frac{d}{v}

so substituting this into the formula for power we get:

P=\frac{W*v}{d}

where v is the velocity we are looking for, d is the distance per step: d=1.5m, W is the work per step and P is power P=65W.

we know that the work per step per kilogram is:

0.60J

so to find the work per step of his whole body we need to multiply the 0.60J by the 61 kilograms of his mas:

W=0.60J*61kg\\W=36.6Jthis is the work per step of the person.

So now we can calculate the velocity using the formula for power

P=\frac{W*v}{d}

clearing for v:

v=\frac{P*d}{W}\\

and substituting known values:

v=\frac{(65W)(1.5m)}{36.6J}= 2.66m/s

April moves from a position that is 5 m north of her front door to a new position that is 3 m south of her front door. If this m
DanielleElmas [232]

Velocity =

(displacement)/(time for the displacement), in the direction of the displacement.

Displacement = 8 m south
Time for the displacement = 4 seconds
Direction of the displacement = south

Velocity (8 m south) / (4 seconds), to the south

Velocity = 2 m/s, toward the south

a family backpacking at Yosemite national park took 5 hours to climb a mountain trail 7.5 km long. what was the family's average
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The average speed will be 1.5km/hr .

Explanation:

Distance need to be traveled = 7.5Km

Time taken = 5 hours

Average speed refers to total distance traveled with respect to total time taken .

It can be calculated as given below :

Average speed =total distance /total time taken

Substituting the values we get ,as shown below

Average speed =7.5/5=75/50

Average speed = 1.5 Km/hr

What is power in physics​
Shkiper50 [21]

Edit

In physics, power is the rate of doing work or of transferring heat, i.e. the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time. Having no direction, it is a scalarquantity. In the International System of Units, the unit of power is the joule per second (J/s), known as the watt in honour of James Watt, the eighteenth-century developer of the condenser steam engine. Another common and traditional measure is horsepower (comparing to the power of a horse). Being the rate of work, the equation for power can be written:

Power

Common symbols

Derivations from

other quantities

P = E/t

P = F·v

P = V·I

P = T·ω

As a physical concept, power requires both a change in the physical system and a specified time in which the change occurs. This is distinct from the concept of work, which is only measured in terms of a net change in the state of the physical system. The same amount of work is done when carrying a load up a flight of stairs whether the person carrying it walks or runs, but more power is needed for running because the work is done in a shorter amount of time.
