 A cat is being chased by a dog. Both are running in a straight line at constant speeds. The cat has a head start of 3.8 m. The

dog is running with a speed of 8.9 m/s and catches the cat after 6.0 s. How fast did the cat run?

In 6 secs, the dog covers-
S=vt
8.9*6 = 53.4 m.
In the same time, the cat covers, 53.4-3.8 = 49.6 m.
Thus, speed of the cat, v= s/t, 
= 49.6/6 = 8.267 m/s

Which particle would have the slowest rate of deposition? A.round particle B.very large particle C.particle with sharp ends D.pa
lisabon 2012 [21]

The particle with sharp ends have the slowest rate of deposition  

Answer: Option C  

<u>Explanation:</u>

          As per aerosol physics, deposition is a process where aerosol particles accumulate or settle on solid surfaces. Thereby, it reduces the concentration of particles in the air. Deposition velocity (rate of deposition) defines from F = vc, where v is deposition rate, F denotes flux density and c refers concentration.  

          Deposition velocity is slowest for particles of intermediate-sized particles because the frictional force offers resistance to the flow. Density is directly proportional to the deposition rate so clearly shows that high-density particles settle faster. Due to friction, round and large-sized particles deposit faster than oval/flattened sediments.

7. A force of 100 N acting on a body gives it a speed of 200 m/s in 2
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Choice a. 1 kg, assuming that all other forces on the object (if any) are balanced.

Explanation:

By Newton's Second Law,

\displaystyle a = \frac{\Sigma F}{m},

where

  • a is the acceleration of the object in \text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2},
  • \Sigma F is the net force on the object in Newtons, and
  • m is the mass of the object in kilograms.

As a result,

\displaystyle m = \frac{\Sigma F}{a}.

Assume that all other forces on this object are balanced. The net force on the object will be 100\;\text{N}. The net force is constant. Acceleration should also be constant and the same as the average acceleration in the two seconds.

<h3>What is the average acceleration of this object?</h3>

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Acceleration} &= \text{Average Acceleration}=\frac{\text{Change in Velocity}}{\text{Time Taken}}\end{aligned}.

\displaystyle {a} = \frac{200\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-1}}{2\;\text{s}}=100\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}.

<h3>Apply Newton's Second Law to find the mass of the object.</h3>

\displaystyle m = \frac{\Sigma F}{a} = \frac{100\;\text{N}}{100\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}} = 1\;\text{kg}.

Read through the and calculate the predicted change in kinetic energy of the oblect compared to 50 kg ball traveling at 10 m/s .
Sliva [168]

Answer:

A 50 kg ball traveling at 20 m/s would have 4 times more kinetic energy.

A 50 kg ball traveling at 5 m/s would have 4 times less kinetic energy.

A 50 kg person falling at 10 m/s would have the same kinetic energy.

Explanation:

hope this helps:)
