Suppose that the coefficient of kinetic friction between Zak's feet and the floor, while wearing socks, is 0.250. Knowing this,

Zak decides to get a running start and then slide across the floor. Part A If Zak's speed is 3.00 m/s when he starts to slide, what distance d will he slide before stopping? Use 9.81 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.

Answer:

The distance travel before stopping is 1.84 m

Explanation:

Given :

coefficient of kinetic friction \mu_{k} = 0.250

Zak's speed v = 3 \frac{m}{s}

Gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Work done by frictional force is given by,

  W = \Delta K

 \mu _{k} mg d = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

  d = \frac{v^{2}  }{2 g \mu _{k} }

  d = \frac{9}{2 \times 9.8 \times 0.250}

  d = 1.84 m

Therefore, the distance travel before stopping is 1.84 m

What is the lift (in newtons) due to Bernoulli's principle on a wing of area 96 m2m2 if the air passes over the top and bottom s
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

F_{lift}=2.42*10^{9} N

Explanation:

Apply Bernoulli's principle

p_{b}+1/2pv_{b}^{2} =p_{t}+1/2pv_{t}^{2} \\p_{b}-p_{t}= 1/2pv_{t}^{2}-1/2pv_{b}^{2}\\p_{b}-p_{t}= 1/2(1.00*10^{3}  kgm^{-3} )(270m/s^{2} )-1/2(1.00*10^{3}kgm^{-3} )(150m/s^{2} )\\p_{b}-p_{t}=2.52*10^{7}N/m^{2}\\  F_{lift}=2.52*10^{7}N/m^{2}*96m^{2} \\ F_{lift}=2.42*10^{9} N

During a 400-m race, a runner crosses the 100 m mark with a velocity of 12 m/s. What would be her final position if she maintain
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Total race distance is 400m

Her initial velocity was 0m/s²

At the 100m mark, after she has travelled 100m, her final velocity was v=12m/s²

Using equation of motion

Let determine her constant acceleration

v²=u²+2as

12²=0²+2×a×100

144=0+200a

144=200a

a=144/200

a=0.72m/s²

Then we want to know her position after another 10second

So total time is 10+12=22seconds

Then, using equation of motion

Let determine his postion

S=ut+½at²

S=0•t+½×0.72×22²

S=0+174.24

S=174.24 m

Her position will be 174.24m

You are given three pieces of wire that have different shapes (dimensions). You connect each piece of wire separately to a batte
VikaD [51]

Answer:

R_3 < R_1 < R_2

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by:

R=\frac{\rho L}{A}

where

\rho is the resistivity of the material

L is the length of the wire

A is the cross-sectional area of the wire

1) The first wire has length L and cross-sectional area A. So, its resistance is:

R_1=\frac{\rho L}{A}

2) The second wire has length twice the first one: 2L, and same thickness, A. So its resistance is

R_2=\frac{2\rho L}{A}

3) The third wire has length L (as the first one), but twice cross sectional area, 2A. So, its resistance is

R_3=\frac{\rho L}{2A}

By comparing the three expressions, we find

R_3 < R_1 < R_2

So, this is the ranking of the wire from most current (least resistance) to least current (most resistance).

Animals have different types of respiratory systems depending on the environment of their habitat. Fish live in the water and us
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

1. Both are respiratory organs found in vertebrates.

2. Both enable the inhalation of oxygen and exhalation of carbon dioxide in the bodies of their host.

3. Respiratory membranes present in both make the exchange of gases easier.

4. Blood vessels found around them enable the breathing process.

Explanation:

Gills are respiratory organs which can be found in animals that live in water. These include fishes, amphibians like frogs, anthropods like insects, and annelids like worms. Gills are surrounded by respiratory  membranes known as gill lamellae which have a large surface area that makes breathing easier. Blood vessels also are found around gills.

The lung is also a respiratory organ found in humans. It runs from a windpipe known as the trachea and branches into bronchi which contain the bronchioles. Alveoli ducts contain alveoli sacs and then alveoli which are membranes that enable the breathing process.

Both are similar because they are respiratory organs found in animals with backbones. They are surrounded by blood vessels and membranes that make the breathing process easier.
