A 10-kg sled carrying a 30-kg child glides on a horizontal, frictionless surface at a speed of 6.0 m/s toward the east. The chil

d jumps off the back of the sled, propelling it forward at 20 m/s. What was the child’s velocity in the horizontal direction relative to the ground at the instant she left the sled?

3 0

Answer:

- 1.33m/s

Explanation:

We choose the system to be the child and the sled. The surface is friction less, which means that there are no forces exerted on the system horizontally. This means that the horizontal momentum component of the system is constant and conserved.

So we can use the conservation momentum principle to find the velocity of the child just after he leaves the sled.

This is shown in the attached file.

If you are given force and time, you can determine power if you can know watts energy joules distance
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

distance

Explanation:

Distance is the missing quantity. It is needed to estimate the amount of work done by a force, and afterwards it is used to estimate the power, which is the work done over the time it took to complete it.

The inductance of a closely packed coil of 560 turns is 8.9 mH. Calculate the magnetic flux through the coil when the current is
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

0.11\times 10^{-6}weber

Explanation:

We have given number of turns N = 560

Inductance L = 8.9 mH

Current through the coil = 7 mA

Inductance of the coil is given as L=\frac{N\Phi }{I}

Where N  is number of turns I is current and \Phi is flux

So \Phi =\frac{LI}{N}=\frac{8.9\times 10^{-3}\times 7\times 10^{-3}}{560}=0.11\times 10^{-6}weber

Juan amd kym have four samples of matter. They are observing and describing the properties of these samples. Which property will
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: The property that will best provide evidence that the samples are solid includes:

--> if the substance has a definite shape,

-->if the substance has a definite volume

--> if it's tightly packed.

Explanation:

According to the kinetic theory of matter, every substance consist of very large number of very small particles called molecules. These molecules, which are made up of atoms that are the smallest particles of a substance that can exist in a free state.

Matter can exist in the following states:

--> Solid state

--> liquid state or

--> Gaseous state.

The general property of a substance that is in gaseous state includes:

--> Definite shape: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it's shape is fixed that is, it doesn't depend on the shape of other materials.

--> Definite volume: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it occupies its own shape. This is due to the force of cohesion among its molecules.

--> Tightly packed: A substance can be grouped as solid if the molecular movements of the particles are negligible.

From the samples under observation by Juan and kym, if the sample that possesses the above described qualities, it is a solid rather than liquid or gas.

How will heat flow between objects?
alukav5142 [94]
Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object. Two objects of different temperature always interact. There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another. They are conduction, convection, and radiation.
