poizon [28]

This is a false statement. Newton's first law says that if the net force on an object is zero, the object stays in UNIFORM MOTION. That means it keeps moving at a constant speed, in a straight line. It can certainly have some speed, in some direction, but without any net force, they CAN'T CHANGE.

Temperature has a(n) _____ effect on the pressure and volume of a gas.
Fiesta28 [93]

Temperature has a direct effect on the pressure of a gas.

If the pressure is constant and the gas is free to fill more
or less space, then temperature also has a direct effect on
the volume of the gas.

The waters of a lake will be most layered in which season
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

B. Spring

Explanation:

The waters of a lake will be the most layered in the spring because of the melting of the ice (which is just frozen water) and the direct heat going into the lake causing the warm water to rise up and the colder water to move further down, which creates even more layers.

A hockey puck is pushed by a stick with a force of 750 newtons. The puck travels 2.0 meters in 0.30 seconds. How powerful is the
myrzilka [38]
The work done by the stick on the hockey puck is equal to the magnitude of the force times the distance covered by the puck:
W=Fd=(750 N)(2.0 m)=1500 J

And the power of the stick is equal to the ratio between the work done and the time taken, therefore
P= \frac{W}{t}= \frac{1500 J}{0.30 s}=5000 W

In Ancient Greece, athletes competing in the long jump used handheld weights called halteres to lengthen their jumps. You are a
katovenus [111]

The halter add the distance to the jump in meters is 0.55 m.

<h3>What is projectile?</h3>

When an object is thrown at an angle from the horizontal direction, the object is said to be in projectile motion. The object which follows the projectile motion is called the projectile.

The magnitude of velocity u =10.3 m/s, angle of jumping θ = 22.8 degrees.

Components of velocity in x and y direction are

Vx = 10.3 cos 22.8 = 9.5 m/s

Vy = 10.3 sin 22.8 = 4 m/s

Maximum Range of athlete achieved using halter is given by

R = u²sin2θ /g

where, u = initial velocity, θ is the angle of projection and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Substituting the values, we get

R = (10.3)² sin(2 x 22.8 °) / 2 x 9.81

R = 7.75m

At the peak of jump you throw two 5.5 kg masses horizontally behind you such that their velocity is zero in the ground's reference frame.

The momentum is conserved in this situation,

(M+2m)Vxo =MVx'

Vx' = (M+2m)/M x Vxo'

Change in x component of velocity ΔVx = Vx' -Vxo

Vxo = 2m/M x Vx

Vxo = 2 x 5.5 /78 x 9.5

Vxo = 1.34 s

Maximum height gained when final velocity is zero

Vy = 0 = Vyo -gt

time t = Vyo/g = 4/9.8 = 0.41s'

Increase in range by using of halters is

ΔR = ΔVx' x t

ΔR = 1.34 x 0.41

ΔR =0.55m

Thus, the halter add the distance to the jump in meters is 0.55 m.
