A boy of mass 46.2 kg is initially on a skateboard of mass 2.00 kg, moving at a speed of 10.2 m/s. The boy falls off the skatebo

ard, and his center of mass moves forward at a speed of 10.9 m/s. Find the final velocity of the skateboard.

Answer:

v=-5.97\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The system boy-skateboard can be modelled by means of the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

(48.2\,kg)\cdot (10.2\,\frac{m}{s} ) = (46.2\,kg)\cdot (10.9\,\frac{m}{s} )+(2\,kg)\cdot v

The final velocity of the skateboard:

v=-5.97\,\frac{m}{s}

What is the change all living things undergo as the grow
Vladimir [108]
All of the change that living things undergo as they grow is called development. That is the name when the changes are within a single unit and over a period of time as short as a lifetime. When the change occurs over thousands of years then it's called evolution.

This graph indicates that the kinetic energy of an object is increasing. What is the most reasonable explanation for this observ
soldi70 [24.7K]

B) The object's velocity doubled.

Explanation:

The graph is missing: find it in attachment.

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. It is calculated as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

We notice that:

  • The  kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass
  • The kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity

In the graph, one of the two quantities (either mass or speed) is represented on the x-axis, while the quantity on the y-axis is the kinetic energy.

First of all, we notice that the relationship is not linear: this means that the quantity on the x-axis cannot be the mass, so it must be the velocity.

Moreover, we notice that when the quantity on the x-axis increases from 1 to 2 (so, it doubles), the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 4. This means that the object's velocity has doubled, therefore

B) The object's velocity doubled.
