Answer: Examples of conductors include metals, aqueous solutions of salts (i.e., ionic compounds dissolved in water), graphite, and the human body. Examples of insulators include plastics, Styrofoam, paper, rubber, glass and dry air.
Answer:
7.1 m/s
Explanation:
First, find the time it takes for the fish to reach the water.
Given in the y direction:
Δy = 6.1 m
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s²
Find: t
Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²
6.1 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²
t = 1.12 s
Next, find the velocity needed to travel 7.9 m in that time.
Given in the x direction:
Δx = 7.9 m
a = 0 m/s²
t = 1.12 s
Find: v₀
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
7.9 m = v₀ (1.12 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.12 s)²
v₀ = 7.1 m/s
The only reasonable choice from this list is choice-A.
The position of the mass is given by (in cm):
The velocity is the derivative of the position:
Substituting t=0.40 s, we can find the velocity at this time:
