A sprinter who weighs 706 N runs the first 5.5 m of a race in 1.6 s, starting from rest and accelerating uniformly. What are the

sprinter's (a) speed and (b) kinetic energy at the end of the 1.6 s? (c) What average power does the sprinter generate during the 1.6 s interval?

Answer:

(a) Speed = 6.875 m/s

(b) Kinetic Energy = 1.70 kJ

(c) Average power =  1.06 kW

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

d = 5.5 m

t = 1.6 s

W = 706 N

Part (a)

Using the equation of motion with the assumption of zero initial speed:

d = \frac{1}{2} ({v-0})t

5.5= \frac{1}{2} (1.6v)

The speed of the sprinter then become:

v = 6.875 m/s

Part (b)

Convert the weight of the sprinter to mass:

m = \frac{w}{g}

m = \frac{706}{9.8}

m = 72 kg

KE (Kinetic Energy) can then be calculated as:

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

KE = \frac{1}{2} (72)(6.875)^{2}

KE = 1701.56 J = 1.70 kJ

Part (c)

The change of the kinetic energy is equivalent to the work done by the sprinter. The average power P is the rate of the work done and can be calculated as

P = \frac{KE}{t} \\\

P = \frac{1701.56}{1.6}

P = 1063.48 W = 1.06 kW

At an auditorium, 3 1/2 sections are filled with people watching a play. Exactly 3/5 of the people watching the play are parents
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 2¹/₁₀ section

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of sections filled = 3¹/₂ = 7 / 2 sections

Number of fraction parents watching play = 3/5

Find:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents]

Computation:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = Total number of sections filled x Number of fraction parents watching play

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = [7/2] x [3/5]

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 21 / 10 sections

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 2¹/₁₀ section

your friend claims that two isosceles triangles ABC and DEF are congruent if two corresponding sides are congruent. he explains
Svetach [21]
Think about the fact that you can have two types of isosceles triangle: one of them that is a right triangle (isosceles right triangle) such as a 45-45-90 triangle and the other type can be just a regular triangle that has two sides that are congruent but it isn't a right triangle. 

Thus, you would need more info about the triangles in order to conclude that the two isosceles triangles are congruent to each other.
