Answer:
Corpuscular theory of light
Explanation:
In optics, the corpuscular theory of light, arguably set forward by Descartes in 1637, states that light is made up of small discrete particles called "corpuscles" which travel in a straight line with a finite velocity and possess impetus. This was based on an alternate description of atomism of the time period.
Answer:
largest lead = 3 m
Explanation:
Basically, this problem is about what is the largest possible distance anchorman for team B can have over the anchorman for team A when the final leg started that anchorman for team A won the race. This show that anchorman for team A must have higher velocity than anchorman for team B to won the race as at the starting of final leg team B runner leads the team A runner.
So, first we need to calculate the velocities of both the anchorman
given data:
Distance = d = 100 m
Time arrival for A = 9.8 s
Time arrival for B = 10.1 s
Velocity of anchorman A = D / Time arrival for A
=100/ 9.8 = 10.2 m/s
Velocity of anchorman B = D / Time arrival for B
=100/10.1 = 9.9 m/s
As speed of anchorman A is greater than anchorman B. So, anchorman A complete the race first than anchorman B. So, anchorman B covered lower distance than anchorman A. So to calculate the covered distance during time 9.8 s for B runner, we use
d = vt
= 9.9 x 9.8 = 97 m
So, during the same time interval, anchorman A covered 100 m distance which is greater than anchorman B distance which is 97 m.
largest lead = 100 - 97 = 3 m
So if his lead no more than 3 m anchorman A win the race.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of person, m = 70 kg
Radius of merry go round, r = 2.9 m
The moment of inertia, 
Initial angular velocity of the platform, 
Part A,
Let 
is the angular velocity when the person reaches the edge. We need to find it. It can be calculated using the conservation of angular momentum as :
Here, 
Solving the above equation, we get the value as :
Part B,
The initial rotational kinetic energy is given by :
The final rotational kinetic energy is given by :
Hence, this is the required solution.
Since power = work done/time, 60= work done/120, work done = 120*60 = 7200. So,work done = 7200N (Newton).
I'm not sure if you're supposed to convert the seconds to time.
Answer:
Δv = 12 m/s, but we are not given the direction, so there are really an infinite number of potential solutions.
Maximum initial speed is 40.6 m/s
Minimum initial speed is 16.6 m/s
Explanation:
Assume this is a NET impulse so we can ignore friction.
An impulse results in a change of momentum
The impulse applied was
p = Ft = 1400(6.0) = 8400 N•s
p = mΔv
Δv = 8400 / 700 = 12 m/s
If the impulse was applied in the direction the car was already moving, the initial velocity was
vi = 28.6 - 12 = 16.6 m/s
if the impulse was applied in the direction opposite of the original velocity, the initial velocity was
vi = 28.6 + 12 = 40.6 m/s
Other angles of Net force would result in various initial velocities.
