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

which of the following refers to the motion of an object falling straight down with only the force of gravity acting on it​
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Since you haven't provided any choices, then the answer is "Free Fall Motion."

Explanation:

In order to learn more about the answer, let's discuss what free fall motion is.

Free Fall- In Physics, this refers to any body motion that is acted upon solely by <u>"gravity."</u> The acceleration in free fall is always downward and there's the absence of other forces. Take note that the<em> acceleration should be the same and is independent of the object's mass. </em>This acceleration is called "acceleration due to gravity."

Gravity- This refers to the force that pulls any object towards the center of the earth.

<u>Examples of Objects in Free Fall Motion</u>

1. A ball dropped at the top of a building.

2.  Dropping a coin from a table.

The ball and the coin are both in free fall motion because they are being pulled by gravity towards the earth. Their acceleration is also constant and there are no other forces acting upon them.
