. A 40.0-kg child standing on a frozen pond throws a 0.500-kg stone to the east with a speed of 5.00 m/s. Neglecting friction be
tween child and ice, find the recoil velocity of the child
1 answer:
Answer:
Explanation:
A 40kg child throw stone of 0.5kg
At a direction of 5m/s
Recoil can be calculated using recoil of a gun formula
m_1•v_1 + m_2•v_2
m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2
The negative sign show that the momentum of the boy is directed oppositely to that of the stone
m_1 Is mass of boy
v_1 is the recoil velocity of the boy
m_2 is mass of stone
v_2 is the velocity of stone
Then,
m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2
40•v_1 = -0.5 × 5
40•v_1 = -2.5
v_1 = -2.5 / 40
v_1 = -0.0625 m/s
The recoil velocity of the boy is 0.0625 m/s

Time = 25s
speed = 10m/min
= 10m / 60
= (1/6)m/s
distance = speed × time
= 25 × (1/6)
=4.167m
Answer:
You never know if the medication could make you worse
Explanation:
Answer:
The time is 
The speed is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The height of the cliff is 
Generally from kinematic equation we have that

before the jump the persons initial velocity is u = 0 m/s
So

=> 
Generally from kinematic equation

=> 
=> 
Force = (mass) x (acceleration) (Newton's second law of motion)
Divide both sides of the equation by 'acceleration', and you have
Mass = (force) / (acceleration)
Mass = 17 newtons / 3.75 meters per second-sqrd = 4.533 kilograms (rounded)
Answer:
Current that reverses direction in the regular pattern is called an alternating current, abbreviated as 'AC'.
