In the 2016 Olympics in Rio, after the 50 mm freestyle competition, a problem with the pool was found. In lane 1 there was a gen

tle 1.2 cm/scm/s current flowing in the direction that the swimmers were going, while in lane 8 there was a current of the same speed but directed opposite to the swimmers' direction. Suppose a swimmer could swim the 50.0 mm in 25.0 ss in the absence of any current.
Required:
a. How would the time it took the swimmer to swim 50.0 m change in lane 1?
b, How would the time it took the swimmer to swim 50.0 m change in lane 8?

Answer:

Explanation:

still water speed is 50 m / 25.0 s = 2.00 m/s or 200 cm/s

In lane 1 the effective speed would be 201.2 cm/s

5000 cm / 201.2 cm/s = 24.85 s

The change is 25.00 - 24.85 = 0.15 s decrease in time

In lane 8, the effective speed would be 198.8 cm/s

5000 cm / 198.8 cm/s = 25.15 s

The change is 25.00 - 25.15 = 0.15 s increase in time

Answer:

1. Reflection

2. travel from one medium to another

3. Same waves to travel in opposite direction.  

Explanation:

1. When a wave strikes a solid barrier, it bounces back in the same medium. This wave behavior of bouncing back is known as reflection. Its like a basketball hitting a backboard. The ball bounces back at the same angle as it was incident. ∠i = ∠r

2. For refraction to occur in a wave, the wave must travel from one medium to another. When light travels from through mediums of different optical densities, it bends. The wave bends away normal when it enters from denser medium to rarer medium. The wave bends towards the normal when it enters from rarer to denser medium. The angle of refraction and angle of incidence are related by Snell's law.

\frac{sin(i)}{sin(r)} = \frac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}

3. The formation of standing wave requires two same waves to travel in the opposite direction and interfere. The incident wave and reflected wave when interfere, form standing waves. There waves are also resonances or harmonics. A standing wave oscillates at one place and does not transfers any energy.

The motion map shows an object’s position and velocity at given times. A long black arrow right labeled x. Above that are 5 gree
Digiron [165]

The map be changed <u>by adding vectors that are all the same length and placing them above the current top row of vectors</u>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A motion map represents the position, velocity, or acceleration of an object at various time readings

a small point or dot describes the position of the object. the object's velocity / acceleration is represented by an arrow / vector.

In this motion map, The arrows (vectors) are all the same length (same speed) and point in the same direction (direction to the right) for t = 0 (origin) to t = 4s

At t = 5s, the object has slowed down, and at t = 7s and 8s the object stops

At t = 9s-11 s, the object accelerates to the left

So the position of the next moving object will be above the previous movement, and the length of the same vector shows the same speed / acceleration

So that motion maps show constant acceleration after the object changes direction, it can be done by adding vectors that are all the same length and placing them above the current top row of vectors

A 40kg rock falls off a cliff that is 50 meters high. How fast is the speed of the rock when it hits the ground
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

31.3m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of rock = 40kg

Height of cliff = 50m

Unknown:

Speed of rock when it hits ground = ?

Solution:

We are going to use the appropriate motion equation to solve this problem

The rock is falling with the aid of gravitational force. The force is causing it to accelerate with an amount of velocity.

  Using;

                      V²  = U² + 2gH

V = unknown velocity

U = initial velocity = O

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

H = height of fall

since the initial velocity of the bodyg is 0

     V²  = 2gH

    V= √2gH = √2 x 9.8 x 50 = 31.3m/s

8. An effort force of 15 Newtons is applied to an ideal pulley system to lift up a 16 Newton object. If the effort force is exer
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

the distance that the object is raised above its initial position is 5.625 m.​

Explanation:

Given;

applied effort, E = 15 N

load lifted by the ideal pulley system, L = 16 N

distance moved by the effort, d₁ = 6 m

let the distance moved by the object = d₂

For an ideal machine, the mechanical advantage is equal to the velocity ratio of the machine.

M.A = V.R

M.A = \frac{Load}{Effort} = \frac{L}{E} \\\\V.R = \frac{disatnce \ moved \  by \ the \ effort}{disatnce \ moved \  by \ the \ load} = \frac{d_1}{d_2} \\\\For \ ideal \ machine; \ M.A = V.R\\\\\frac{L}{E} = \frac{d_1}{d_2} \\\\d_2 = \frac{E \times d_1}{L} \\\\d_2 = \frac{15 \times 6}{16} \\\\d_2 = 5.625 \ m

Therefore, the distance that the object is raised above its initial position is 5.625 m.​
