Answer:

3.59 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of lineman,m=85 kg

Mass of receiver,m'=90 kg

Speed of receiver,v'=5.8 m/s

Speed of lineman,v=4.1 m/s

\theta=90^{\circ}

We have to find the their velocity immediately after the tackle.

Initial momentum,P_i=\sqrt{p^2_1+p^2_2}=\sqrt{(85\times 4.1)^2+(90\times 5.8)^2}=627.6 kgm/s

According to law of conservation of momentum

Initial momentum=Final momentum=(m+m')V

627.6=(85+90)V=175V

V=\frac{627.6}{175}=3.59 m/s

Can you explain to be the definition of Quantum Theory?
Vanyuwa [196]
Quantum Theory is commonly related to Quantum Mechanics, or the physics of sub-atomic particles. Quantum Theory defines the theories or educated ideas behind Quantum Mechanics. I believe this is the answer you are looking for.

Distinguish between directly proportional and inversely proportional with an example of each
RideAnS [48]

Consider two variables said to be "inversely proportional" to each other. If all other variables are held constant, the magnitude or absolute value of one inversely proportional variable decreases if the other variable increases, while their product (the constant of proportionality k) is always the same.

Consider the following FBDs.FBDsAn elevator is suspended by a cable and moves uniformly upward. Which of the above free body dia
Drupady [299]

The force of gravity F_g will act downwards.

Normal force F_N will act upwards equal to the force of gravity.

A force due to uniform acceleration F_a will act upwards to move the elevator upwards.

Thus, figure E is the correct answer.

Can anyone help me with this please​
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

1270 J

Explanation:

Recall that the mechanical energy of a system is the addition of the Potential energy and the Kinetic energy at any given time.

As the skier descends, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, but the total mechanical energy should remain the same.

We see that it is not the case, so that difference is what has gone into thermal energy;  19500 J - 18230 J = 1270 J
