The experiments that claimed to demonstrate cold fusion were found
to have been faulty by others who reviewed them. Also, nobody else
was able to reproduce the finding in other laboratories. In the world
of Science, this pretty much says that the initial claims were unfounded.

A high jumper jumps over a bar that is 2 m above the mat. With what velocity does the jumper strike the mat in the landing area?

docker41 [41]

Answer:

The velocity with which the jumper strike the mat in the landing area is 6.26 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

A high jumper jumps over a bar that is 2 m above the mat, h = 2 m

We need to find the velocity with which the jumper strike the mat in the landing area. It is a case of conservation of energy. let v is the velocity. it is given by :

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$

g is acceleration due to gravity

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\ m/s^2\times 2\ m}$

v = 6.26 m/s

So, the velocity with which the jumper strike the mat in the landing area is 6.26 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Add these measurements, using significant digit rules:

tia_tia [17]

Here we have to add the two measurements given in the question

The measurement values are given as 1.0090 cm and 0.02 cm.we have to add them on the basis of significant figure rules.

As per the addition rule in terms of significant figures

1-First we have to select the number of significant digits after the decimal point of each quantity.

2-Now we have to remember that during the addition ,the resultant of two quantities will follow the quantity having least number of significant figures after the decimal point.

3-Here we are considering the minimum number of significant figures after the decimal points not the minimum number of significant figures in case of multiplication and division

Now we have to add these two quantities as per the above rule-

1.0090 cm +0.02 cm

=1.0290 cm

Here the result will follow 0.02 which has minimum number of significant figures after the decimal points.

Hence we have to round off the number from 9 of 1.0290

As 9 is greater than 5 ,so he actual result will be 1.03 cm

Answer:

The length of the boomerang is 0.364 m

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is:

$I=\frac{1}{2} m_{d} r^{2} +m_{h} r^{2}$

Where

md = 0.05 kg

mh = 0.12 kg

r = d/2 = 0.273/2 = 0.1365 m

$I=\frac{0.05*(0.1365)^{2} }{2} +(0.12)*(0.1365)^{2} =2.7x10^{-3} kgm^{2}$

The length of the boomerang is:

$L_{b} =\sqrt{\frac{12I}{m} } =\sqrt{\frac{12*2.7x10^{-3} }{0.245} } =0.364m$

The center of gravity of a basketball is located _______.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

at its centre

Explanation:

The centre of gravity is a point inside the body where entire weight os the body is said to be concentrated. For geometrical symmetric bodies it lies at the geometric centre of the body.

The base ball is a spherical body, so its centre of gravity lies at its centre.
