A football wide receiver rushes 16 m straight down the playing field in 2.9 s (in the positive direction). He is then hit and pu

shed 2.5 m straight backwards in 1.65 s. He breaks the tackle and runs straight forward another 24 m in 5.2 s.
Part (a) Calculate the wide receiver's average velocity in the horizontal direction during the first interval, in meters per second.

Part (b) Calculate the wide receiver's average velocity in the horizontal direction during the second interval, in meters per second.

Part (c) Calculate the wide receiver's average velocity in the horizontal direction during the third interval, in meters per second.

Part (d) Calculate the wide receiver's average velocity in the horizontal direction for the entire motion, in meters per second

Answer:

a) v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = 3.85m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the football wide receiver is his displacement per unit time.

Velocity v = (displacement d)/time t

v = d/t .....1

For each of the cases, equation 1 would be used to calculate the velocity.

a) v1 = d1/t1

d1= 16m

t1 = 2.9s

v1 = 16m/2.9s

v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = d2/t2

d2 = -2.5m

t2 = 1.65s

v2 = -2.5/1.65

v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = d3/t3

d3 = 24m

t3 = 5.2s

v3 = 24/5.2

v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = dt/tt

dt = 16m - 2.5m + 24m = 37.5m

tt = 2.9 + 1.65 + 5.2 = 9.75s

vt = 37.5/9.75

vt = 3.85m/s

Suppose our experimenter repeats his experiment on a planet more massive than Earth, where the acceleration due to gravity is g
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

- Let acceleration due to gravity @ massive planet be a = 30 m/s^2

- Let acceleration due to gravity @ earth be g = 30 m/s^2

Solution:

- The average time taken for the ball to cover a distance h from chin to ground with acceleration a on massive planet is:

                                 t = v / a

                                 t = v / 30

- The average time taken for the ball to cover a distance h from chin to ground with acceleration g on earth is:

                                 t = v / g

                                 t = v / 9.81

- Hence, we can see the average time taken by the ball on massive planet is less than that on earth to reach back to its initial position. Hence, option C

How does Sonar work?i will mark brainliest pls help
Fittoniya [83]
I don't like the wording of any of the choices on the list.

SONAR generates a short pulse of sound, like a 'peep' or a 'ping',
focused in one direction.  If there's a solid object in that direction,
then some of the sound that hits it gets reflected back, toward the
source.  The source listens to hear if any of the sound that it sent
out returns to it.  If it hears its own 'ping' come back, it measures
the time it took for the sound to go out and come back.  That tells
the SONAR equipment that there IS a solid object in that direction,
and also HOW FAR away it is.

RADAR works exactly the same way, except RADAR uses radio waves.

Find the Horizontal (x) vector for these forces.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

The force is a vector therefore we can decompose the force into components x & y. as we need the horizontal component of the force, we must use the cosine function of the angle.

F_{1x}=30.8*cos(20)\\F_{1x}=28.94[N]\\F_{2x}=34.3*cos(20)\\\\F_{2x}= 32.23[N]
