Answer: 7.07 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of runner = 60 kg runner

Kinetic energy = 1500J

Speed of runner = ?

Recall that kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on its mass and speed by which it moves.

Hence, K.E = 1/2 x mass x (speed)^2

1500J = 1/2 x 60kg x (speed)^2

1500J = 30kg x (speed)^2

(speed)^2 = 1500J/30kg

(speed)^2 = 50

To get the value of speed, find the square root of 50

speed = √50

speed = 7.07 m/s

Thus, the runner moves as fast as 7.07 m/s

What type of equilibrium is guaranteed by each condition of equilibrium
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer: Conditions for equilibrium require that the sum of all external forces acting on the body is zero (first condition of equilibrium), and the sum of all external torques from external forces is zero (second condition of equilibrium). These two conditions must be simultaneously satisfied in equilibrium

TEA [102]
If they align the object at the very edge of the ruler, the measurement in inaccurate. They would have to start the measurement at 0 to get an accurate measurement. When starting at the very edge, you are not taking into account the little bit of the ruler and it between the edge of the ruler and the 0 marker.
Some people start at the 1 cm mark (and then subtract 1 from their raw measurement) to make sure they have the most accurate measurement they can get.
I'm pretty sure that is what you are talking about. Hope this helps!!
