Answer: 10.2 kg if g = 9.8, 10 if g = 10.

Explanation:

Weight or the "force of gravity" on a person is simply defined by the equation: F = ma. In this case, the acceleration is g, which is 9.8 but can be rounded up to 10. Based on this, we have:

F = mg

100 = m*9.8

m = 10.2(or 10 if we set g to 10).

Which of the below statements are true?

andrezito [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance from the start point to the endpoint, displacement disregard the path taken or the amount traveled.

if you start at point A, then go to point B, and back to point A, the displacement is zero because you started and ended at the same point.

for this question, pretend you started at point A, went east 20 km to point B, and then west 8 km to point C, your displacement is 12 km. 12 km is the distance between point A and point C.

If the coefficient of static friction is 0.357, and the same ladder makes a 58.0° angle with respect to the horizontal, how far

zavuch27 [327]

Answer: d= 0.57* l

Explanation:

We need to check that before ladder slips the length of ladder the painter can climb.

So we need to satisfy the equilibrium conditions.

So for ∑Fx=0, ∑Fy=0 and ∑M=0

We have,

At the base of ladder, two components N₁ acting vertical and f₁ acting horizontal

At the top of ladder, N₂ acting horizontal

And Between somewhere we have the weight of painter acting downward equal to= mg

So, we have N₁=mg

and also mg*d*cosФ= N₂*l*sin∅

So,

d= $\frac{N2}{mg}*l$ * tan∅

Also, we have f₁=N₂

As f₁= чN₁

So f₁= 0.357 * 69.1 * 9.8

f₁= 241.75

Putting in d equation, we have

d= $\frac{241.75}{69.1*9.8} *l$ * tan 58

d= 0.57* l

So painter can be along the 57% of length before the ladder begins to slip

Inertia law what happens when You are standing on the bus and the bus stops abruptly:

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

You will fly forward in the bus until you hit something.

Explanation:

While standing there on the bus, you are traveling at the same speed as the bus. If the bus suddenly stops, you will still be traveling at the same speed you started with. That is until you hit something hard enough or big enough to stop you.

A ball is thrown straight up with a velocity of 50 m/s.(use g = -10 m/s^2) a) What is the velocity in m/s after 2 seconds?

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

(a) 30 m/sec

(b) -50 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity of ball u = 50 m/sec

Acceleration due to gravity $g=-10m/sec^2$
