Using energy considerations, calculate the average force a 60.0-kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate from 2.00

to 8.00 m/s in a distance of 25.0 m, if he encounters a headwind that exerts an average force of 30.0 N against him.

Answer:

F = 102 N

Explanation:

ASSUMING the track is horizontal to avoid gravity potential energy considerations.

The work of the applied force must overcome friction work and increase the kinetic energy of the runner

F(d) = Ff(d) + ½m(v² - u²)

F = Ff + m(v² - u²) / 2d

F = 30.0 + 60.0(8.00² - 2.00²) / (2(25.0))

F = 102 N

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST. Which gas became part of Earth's atmosphere as a result of the evolution of life-forms?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Earth's atmosphere was largely made up of nitrogen and carbon dioxide gases. After photosynthesizing organisms multiplied on Earth's surface and in the oceans, much of the carbon dioxide was replaced with oxygen.

Idk if this helps but plz mark brainliest if it does

At a given instant an object has an angular velocity. It also has an angular acceleration due to torques that are present. There
katen-ka-za [31]

a) Constant

b) Constant

Explanation:

a)

We can answer this question by using the equivalent of Newton's second law of motion of rotational motion, which can be written as:

\tau_{net} = I \alpha (1)

where

\tau_{net} is the net torque acting on the object in rotation

I is the moment of inertia of the object

\alpha is the angular acceleration

The angular acceleration is the rate of change of the angular velocity, so it can be written as

\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta \omega is the change in angular velocity

\Delta t is the time interval

So we can rewrite eq.(1) as

\tau_{net}=I\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}

In this problem, we are told that at a given instant, the object has an angular acceleration due to the presence of torques, so there is a non-zero change in angular velocity.

Then, additional torques are applied, so that the net torque suddenly equal to zero, so:

\tau_{net}=0

From the previous equation, this implies that

\Delta \omega =0

Which means that the angular velocity at that instant does not change anymore.

b)

In this second case instead, all the torques are suddenly removed.

This also means that the net torque becomes zero as well:

\tau_{net}=0

Therefore, this means that

\Delta \omega =0

So also in this case, there is no change in angular velocity: this means that the angular velocity of the object will remain constant.

So cases (a) and (b) are basically the same situation, as the net torque is zero in both cases, so the object acts in the same way.

What are the properties of bungee gum,hmmm?
lys-0071 [83]
It’s both a solid and a liquid. It can thicken and soften depending on how it’s handled. It can be used to cover wounds to stop bleed, and used to drown enemies. Bungee Gum has the properties of both rubber and gum.

Would the solar panel work under a fluorescent or halogen light? explain your response being sure to relate your observations to
eduard

I think that the solar panel would work under a fluorescent or halogen light if the photons are being produced. These types of lights mimic sunlight so it would not work as good as the real thing but it could work. Just not be as powerful.
