An unwary football player collides with a padded goalpost while running at a velocity of 5.70 m/s and comes to a full stop after

compressing the padding and his body 0.270 m. what is his deceleration?

The relationship between the initial velocity, final velociy, distance, and deceleration can be expressed in the following equation.

2(a)(0.270 m) = 0² - (5.70 m/s)²

The value of a (which is the deceleration) is 0.06 m/s². Thus, the answer is that the deceleration value is approximately 0.06 m/s².

You drop a small ball, and then a second small ball. When you drop the second ball, the distance between them is 3 cm. What stat

Alja [10]

Answer:

c) The distance between the balls increases.

Explanation:

If you drop the balls at the same time, regardless of their masses they accelerate equally, since they will be in free fall.

However, if you drop one of the balls earlier, then that ball will gain velocity, whereas the second ball has zero initial velocity. At the time the second ball is dropped, both balls have the same acceleration but different initial velocities.

According to the below kinematics equation:

$x = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

The initial velocity of the first ball will make the difference, and the first ball will travel a greater distance than the second ball. Hence, their distance increases.

How long does it take a glass of salt water to freeze than a glass of fresh water

max2010maxim [7]

A glass of salt water will take a slightly longer time & slightly lower temperature (28 F as compared to 32 F for fresh water) to freeze than a glass of fresh water.

Hope this helps!

Please hurry and please no links. I need an answer. Explain why a smart meter monitors the amount of electrical energy being use

brilliants [131]

Smart Metering is a technology encouraging end-use energy efficiency. Smart Meters can give consumers clear and comprehensive information about their energy consumption and, giving them better information, can help consumers to become more energy efficient.

A 80 W light bulb (normally run at 120 V) is attached to a transformer. The voltage source in the transformer is 65 V and Np = 3

Marina CMI [18]

67.8 turns needed by the secondary coil to run the bulb.

<u>Explanation</u>:

We know that,

$\text { Electric power }(p)=\frac{V^{2}}{R}$

$\text { Hence, } \frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}=\frac{V_{1}^{2} / R}{V_{2}^{2} / R}$

$\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}=\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{V_{2}^{2}}$

For calculating number of turns

$\frac{N_{P}}{N_{S}}=\frac{V_{P}}{V_{S}}$

Given that,

$80 \mathrm{W}\left(P_{1}\right) \text { bulb with voltage } 120 \mathrm{V}\left(V_{1}\right) \text { is connected to a transformer. }$

$\text { The source voltage of a transformer is }\left(V_{P}\right) \text { is } 65 \mathrm{V}$

$\text { The number of turns in primary winding of transformer is }\left(N_{P}\right) \text { is } 30 .$

We need to find the number of turns in the secondary winding $\left(N_{S}\right)$ to run the bulb at 120W $\left(P_{2}\right)$

Firstly find the secondary voltage in the transformer use, $\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}=\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{V_{2}^{2}}$

$\frac{80}{120}=\frac{120^{2}}{V_{2}^{2}}$

$V_{2}^{2}=\frac{120^{2} \times 120}{80}$

$V_{2}^{2}=\frac{1728000}{80}$

$V_{2}^{2}=21600$

$V_{2}=\sqrt{21600}$

$V_{2}=146.9 \mathrm{V}=V_{S}$

Now, finding the number of turns in secondary coil. Use, $\frac{N_{P}}{N_{S}}=\frac{V_{P}}{V_{S}}$

$\frac{30}{N_{S}}=\frac{65}{146.9}$

$N_{S}=\frac{30 \times 146.9}{65}$

$N_{S}=\frac{4407}{65}$ $N_{S}=67.8$

The number of turns in the secondary winding are 67.8 turns.
