Answer: option d.

Explanation:

In this situation, we can suppose that the football player has a velocity of 2m/s in the positive x-axis, and the ball has a velocity of -5m/s in the x-axis.

If we step in the point of view of the football player, all the previous x-axis now moves with the same velocity that the player had, but in the other direction, so all the axis now moves with a velocity of -2m/s. And the ball that also is in the axis also gets this "boost" in velocity.

So now the velocity of the ball is -5m/s -2m/s = -7m/s where the minus sign is because of the situation that I crafted.

So the correct option is the option D

The primary difference between a barometer and a manometer is
Nitella [24]

Answer:

a barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure, and a manometer is used to measure gauge pressure.

Explanation:

A barometer measures air pressure at any locality with sea level as the reference.

However, a manometer is used to measure all pressures especially gauge pressures. Thus, if the aim is to measure the pressure at any point below a fluid surface, a barometer is used to determine the air pressure. The manometer may now be used to determine the gauge pressure

The algebraic sum of these two values gives the absolute pressure.

In a particle accelerator a positron (C= +1.6 x 10-19) travels through a perpendicular magnet field with a magnitude of 3.1 x 10-2 T. At what speed must the positron travel in order for it to experience a force of 4.75 x 10-14 N? 28. An alpha particle (2 protons and 2 neutrons) experiences a downward force of 2.9 x 10-14 N while traveling in a magnetic field with a strength of 5.1 x 10-19 T pointing to the north. Find the speed of the particle and the direction it must be traveling in. 29. Find the length of a wire if it experiences a .63N force when it travels through a magnetic field with a strength of 0.85T whilst carrying 5.0 amps of current. 30. A coil with 462 turns of wire, a total resistance of 36Ω , and a cross-sectional area of 0.25 m2 is positioned with its plane perpendicular to the field of a powerful electromagnet. What average current is induced in the coil during the 0.37s that the magnetic field drops from 3.1 T to 0.0 T? 31. A step-up transformer has a potential difference across the primary of 28 V and a potential difference across the secondary of 3.0 × 104 V. There are 28 turns in the primary coil. How many turns are in the secondary? 32. A step-up transformer is used to create a potential difference of 1.6872 × 105 V across the secondary. The potentia

What is the magnitude of the acceleration of a speck of clay on the edge of a potter's wheel turning at 45 rpm (revolutions per
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

a_{cp}=7.77m/s^2

Explanation:

The equation for centripetal acceleration is a_{cp}=\frac{v^2}{r}.

We know the wheel turns at 45 rpm, which means 0.75 revolutions per second (dividing by 60), so our frequency is f=0.75Hz, which is the inverse of the period T.

Our velocity is the relation between the distance traveled and the time taken, so is the relation between the circumference C=2\pi r and the period T, then we have:

v=\frac{C}{T}=2\pi r f

Putting all together:

a_{cp}=\frac{(2\pi r f)^2}{r}=4 \pi^2f^2r=4 \pi^2(0.75Hz)^2(0.35m)=7.77m/s^2
