A train travels north at a speed of 50 m/s.
Gala2k [10]

The apparent velocity is B) 48 m/s north

Explanation:

Here we have a problem of relativity of velocities.

In fact, the train is travelling north at a speed of

v_t = 50 m/s

where this velocity is measured with respect to the ground.

At the same time, a passenger on the train is walking towards the rear (so, south) at a velocity of

v'=2 m/s

where this velocity is measured with respect to the train, which is in motion in the opposite direction.

Therefore, the apparent velocity of the passenger with respect to an observer standing on the ground is:

v=V_t - v' = 50 - 2 = 48 m/s

And the direction is north, since this number is positive.

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,700 years. How long will it take for 6.25% of the Carbon-14 to be remaining?
kupik [55]

Half life is 5700 years,that is 50%.

6.25% means 1/16 of the life is left.

T^1/16 =T^1/2*4.

5700 × 4 =22800 years

A person jumps out a fourth-story window 14 m above a firefighter safety net. The survivor stretches the net 1.8 m before coming
Monica [59]

Answer:

The deceleration is  a =  - 76.27 m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The height above  firefighter safety net is H  = 14 \ m

   The length by which the net is stretched is s =  1.8 \ m

   

From the law of energy conservation

    KE_T + PE_T =  KE_B + PE_B

 Where KE_T is the kinetic energy of the person before jumping which equal to zero(because to kinetic energy at maximum height )

   and  PE_T is the potential energy of the before jumping  which is mathematically represented at

          PE_T  = mg H

and  KE_B is the kinetic energy of the person just before landing on the safety net  which is mathematically represented at

        KE_B = \frac{1}{2} m v^2

and  PE_B is the potential energy of the person as he lands on the safety net which has a value of zero (because it is converted to kinetic energy )

   So the above equation becomes

          mgH =  \frac{1}{2} m v^2

=>           v =  \sqrt{2 gH }

    substituting values

                v =  16.57 m/s

Applying the equation o motion

             v_f =  v  + 2 a s

Now the final velocity is zero because the person comes to rest

      So

         0 = 16.57 + 2 * a * 1.8

            a =  - \frac{16.57^2 }{2 * 1.8}

            a =  - 76.27 m/s^2

The ideal mechanical advantage of a pulley system is equal to the?
marishachu [46]

Answer: The correct answer is "Number of rope segments supporting the load".

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage: It is defined as the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied on the machine. The ideal mechanical advantage of a machines is mechanical advantage in the absence of friction.

The ideal mechanical advantage of a pulley system is equal to the number of rope segments which is supporting the load. More the rope segments, It is more helpful to do the lifting the work.

It means that less force is needed for this task to complete.

Therefore, the correct option is (C).
