Because we wish to have a sustainable future. The current dependence on fossil fuel means that there will be a point when humans have no fuel to use because fossil fuels are a non-renewable resource.

Margaret wants to go for a swim, and decides to jump in using the diving board that measures 3-m long.
otez555 [7]

Answer:

The horizontal component of her velocity is approximately 1.389 m/s

The vertical component of her velocity is approximately 7.878 m/s

Explanation:

The given question parameters are;

The initial velocity with which Margaret leaps, v = 8.0 m/s

The angle to the horizontal with which she jumps, θ = 80° to the horizontal

The horizontal component of her velocity, vₓ = v × cos(θ)

∴ vₓ = 8.0 × cos(80°) ≈ 1.389

The horizontal component of her velocity, vₓ ≈ 1.389 m/s

The vertical component of her velocity, v_y = v × sin(θ)

∴ v_y = 8.0 × sin(80°) ≈ 7.878

The vertical component of her velocity, v_y ≈ 7.878 m/s.

A 50 Ohm resistance causes a current of 5 milliamps to flow through a circuit connected to a battery. What is the power in the c
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:0.00125 watts

Explanation:

resistance=50 ohms

Current=5 milliamps

Current=5/1000 milliamps

Current =0.005 amps

power=(current)^2 x (resistance)

Power=(0.005)^2 x 50

Power=0.005 x 0.005 x 50

Power=0.00125 watts

A 0.750 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 13.0 N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it w
trapecia [35]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. From this conservation we will find the magnitude of the amplitude. Later for the second part, we will need to find the period, from which it will be possible to obtain the speed of the body.

A) Conservation of Energy,

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2} mv ^2 = \frac{1}{2} k A^2

Here,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

k = Spring constant

A = Amplitude

Rearranging to find the Amplitude we have,

A = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}

Replacing,

A = \sqrt{\frac{(0.750)(31*10^{-2})^2}{13}}

A = 0.0744m

(B) For this part we will begin by applying the concept of Period, this in order to find the speed defined in the mass-spring systems.

The Period is defined as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

Replacing,

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.750}{13}}

T= 1.509s

Now the velocity is described as,

v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-x^2}

v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-0.75A^2}

We have all the values, then replacing,

v = \frac{2\pi}{1.509}\sqrt{(0.0744)^2-(0.750(0.0744))^2}

v = 0.2049m/s

Find the mass of a sample of water if its temperature dropped 24.8 °C when it lost 870 J of
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

8.35 × 10^{-3} kg

Explanation:

Remember the formula for heat:

Q=mc\Delta T

You just need to solve for m, doing so you're left with:

m=\dfrac{Q}{c\Delta T}

Replace the variables with numbers and that's it.
