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

Describe how thermal energy is transferred​
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Thermal energy typically flows from a warmer material to a cooler material. Generally, when thermal energy is transferred to a material, the motion of its particles speeds up and its temperature increases. There are three methods of thermal energy transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation.

A Honda Hawk motorcycle and its rider with a combined mass of 450 kg travels around a curve of radius 106 m with a speed of 18 m
umka21 [38]

Answer: coefficient of static friction

= 0.31

Explanation: Since they negotiate the curve without skidding, the frictional force (F1) equals the centripetal force (F2).

F1= uN

F2 = M*(v²/r)

M is the combined mass 450kg

V is the velocity 18m/s

r is the radius 106m

N is the normal reaction 4410N

u is the coefficient of static friction

Making u subject of the formula we have that,

u = {450*(18²/106)} /4410

=1375.47/4410

=0.31

NOTE: coefficient of friction is dimensionless. It as no Unit.

A ferry is travelling at 10 m/s relative to the river towards the south. The river is flowing at 2 m/s relative to
mixer [17]

Answer:

11 m/s south

Explanation:

The velocity of the passenger relative to the river bank is equal to the velocity of the passenger relative to the ferry, plus the velocity of the ferry relative to the river, plus the velocity of the river relative to the river bank.

v_passenger,bank = v_passenger,ferry + v_ferry,river + v_river,bank

If we take north to be positive and south to be negative:

v = 1.0 m/s + (-10 m/s) + (-2 m/s)

v = -11 m/s

v = 11 m/s south
