Answer:

b) 338 N

Explanation: let m be the mass of the gymnast and a be the acceleration of the gymnast.

the force required to accelerate the gymnast is given by:

F = m×a

  = (45.0)×(7.50)

  = 337.5 N

Therefore, the force a trampoline has to apply is 138 N.

A child in a boat throws a 5.80-kg package out horizontally with a speed of 10.0 m/s. The mass of the child is 24.6kg and the ma
Sergio [31]

Answer:

-0.912 m/s

Explanation:

When the package is thrown out, momentum is conserved. The total momentum after is the same as the total momentum before, which is 0, since the boat was initially at rest.

(m_c + m_b)v_b + m_pv_p = 0

where m_c = 24.6 kg, m_b = 39 kg, m_p = 5.8 kg are the mass of the child, the boat and the package, respectively. , v_p = 10m/s, v_b are the velocity of the package and the boat after throwing.

(24.6 + 39)v_b + 5.8*10 = 0

63.6v_b + 58 = 0

v_b = -58/63.6 = -0.912 m/s

Please help <br>Newton second law of motion is F =ma <br>​
mamaluj [8]

Answer: ma is the formula of Newton's Second Law of Motion. Newton's Second Law of Motion is defined as Force is equal to the rate of change of momentum. For a constant mass, force equals mass times acceleration.

Explanation: Newton's second law of motion is F = ma, or force is equal to mass times acceleration.

An automobile travels on a straight road for 42 km at 45 km/h. it then continues in the same direction for another 42 km at 90 k
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a) The average velocity is v = (60 km/h ; 0)

b) The average speed is 60 km/h

Explanation:

The velocity is a vector that has a magnitude and direction. The average speed is the distance traveled over time without taking into account the direction of the motion.

a)The average velocity is calculated as the displacement over time:

v = Δx/Δt

where

v = velocity

Δx = final position - initial position = traveled distance relative to the center of the reference system.

Δt = final time - initial time (initial time is usually = 0)

We know that the displacement is 84 km but we do not know the time. It can be calculated from the two parts of the trip.

In part 1:

v = 45 km/h = 42 km / t

t = 0.93 h

In part 2:

v = 90 km/h = 42 km / t

t = 42 km / 90 km/h

t = 0.47 h

The time of travel is 0.47 h + 0.93 h = 1.4 h

The average velocity will be:

v = 84 km / 1.4 h = 60 km/h

Expressed as a vector in a 2-dimension plane:

v = (60 km/h; 0)

b) The average speed is calculated as the distance traveled over time. Note that in this case, the distance is equal to the displacement since the direction of the motion is always in one direction. But if the direction of the second part of the trip would have been the opposite to the direction of the first part, the displacement would have been 0 (final position - initial position = 0, because final position = initial position), then, the average velocity would have been 0. In change, the average speed would have been the distance traveled (84 km, 42 km in one direction and 42 km in the other) over time.

Then:

average speed = 84 km / 1.4 h = 60 km/h

c) see attached figure.

snow_tiger [21]
Get a pull chord light switch installed in her bathroom by a qualified electrician asap. Meanwhile, keep hands as dry as possible, and try not to go near that switch until it's either been properly earthed, or whatever the problem actually is, and get qualified advice on what the problem is. Don't have wet feet either, and don't stand in puddles of water whilst operating - i she has to - the switch. 250V AC mains can be lethal, and at least painful.
