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

a length 650 cm of thin thread wraps around a cylinder exactly 30 times calculate the circumference and the radius of the cylind
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

circumference= 65/3  cm = 21.67 cm

radius R = 3.45 cm

Explanation:

To calculate the length of the circumference of the cylinder, we divide 650 cm by 30 (the number of times it wrapped exactly around it)

length of circumference= 65/3  cm = 21.67 cm

now use the formula of the circumference length to find the radius (R):

circumference length = 2 * pi * R

65/3 = 2 * pi * R

R = 65 / (6 pi)

R = 3.45 cm

Explain why it is easier to climb a mountain on a zigzag path rather than one straight up the side.
GaryK [48]
Although a zig zag pattern going up a mountain means you walk further, the incline of the slope is a lot less so you don't have to work as hard.
