A child in a boat throws a 4.5kg package out horizontally with a speed of 13 m/s. Calculate the velocity of the boat immediately

after, assuming it was initially at rest. The mass of the child is 24 kg and the mass of the boat is 53 kg.

Answer:

0.78m/s

Explanation:

Now the momentum ensued by the boy throwing the package Is

Mass of package × velocity of package =4.5×13=58.5m/s

This momentum initiated a momentum on the boy-boat system

Total mass of the boy-boat system is 24+53=75kg

Let the velocity ensued by the boat be v.

Hence from conservation of momentum

58.5 =75×v

v= 58.5/75= 0.78m/s

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 113m in 29s?
Elza [17]
In this item, we are asked to determine the speed of the bobsled given the distance traveled and the time it takes to cover the certain distance. This can mathematically be expressed as,
                          speed = distance / time

Substituting the given values in this item,
                         speed = (113 m) / (29 s)
                         speed = 3.90 m/s

<em>ANSWER: 3.90 m/s</em>

MakcuM [25]

Explanation:

A micrometer is a measuring device or an instrument which is used to measure very minute measurements very accurately and precisely. It is mathematical tool used to provide accurate measurement for any mechanical components.

Now, if the micrometer that I have found is badly bent, it would provide faulty or wrong measurements both in terms of  precision and accuracy when compared to a high quality meter stick.

Can a solution be separated by filtration?​
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Filtration is a method for separating an insoluble solid from a liquid. When a mixture of sand and water is filtered: the sand stays behind in the filter paper (it becomes the residue ) the water passes through the filter paper (it becomes the filtrate )

A force of 44 N will stretch a rubber band 88 cm ​(0.080.08 ​m). Assuming that​ Hooke's law​ applies, how far will aa 11​-N forc
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

<em>The rubber band will be stretched 0.02 m.</em>

<em>The work done in stretching is 0.11 J.</em>

Explanation:

Force 1 = 44 N

extension of rubber band = 0.080 m

Force 2 = 11 N

extension = ?

According to Hooke's Law, force applied is proportional to the extension provided elastic limit is not extended.

F = ke

where k = constant of elasticity

e = extension of the material

F = force applied.

For the first case,

44 = 0.080K

K = 44/0.080 = 550 N/m

For the second situation involving the same rubber band

Force = 11 N

e = 550 N/m

11 = 550e

extension e = 11/550 = <em>0.02 m</em>

<em>The work done to stretch the rubber band this far is equal to the potential energy stored within the rubber due to the stretch</em>. This is in line with energy conservation.

potential energy stored = \frac{1}{2}ke^{2}

==> \frac{1}{2}* 550* 0.02^{2} = <em>0.11 J</em>
