Two ice skaters stand together. They push off and travel directly away from each other, the boy with a velocity of v = +0.35 m/s

. If the boy weighs 745N and the girl 477 N, what is the girl's velocity after they push off? ( Consider the ice to be frictionless)_____m/s

Answer:

-0.55m/s

Explanation:

Given that: For the boy

Weight = 745N

Velocity = +0.35 m/s

Mass of the boy = ?

g = 9.81m/s^2

W = mg

745 = m×9.81

m = 75.94kg

For the girl

Given that:

Weight = 477 N

g = 9.81m/s^2

m = ?

W = mg

477 = m×9.81m/s^2

m = 48.62kg

To solve for the v of the girl, the two has to add up

48.62kg×v + 75.94kg×+0.35 m/s = 0

48.62v + 26.579 = 0

48.62v = - 26.579

v = -26.579/48.62

v = -0.5466

v = -0.55m/s

Hence, the velocity of the girl is -0.55m/s.

The negative sign is as a result of the two of them moving is opposite direction.

Find the slit separation of a double-slit arrangement that will produce interference fringes 0.018 rad apart on a distant screen
inessss [21]

Answer:

1.64 * 10^(-5) m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Angular separation, θ = 0.018 rad

Wavelength, λ = 589 nm = 5.89 * 10^(-7) m

The angular separation when there are 2 slots is given as

θ = λ/2d

where d = separation between slits

d = λ/2θ

d = (589 * 10^(-9))/(2 * 0.018)

d = 1.64 * 10^(-5) m

The ozone layer is found in which layer of the atmosphere
prohojiy [21]

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question

The ozone layer is found in which layer of the atmosphere?

A. Stratosphere

B. Mesosphere

C. Thermosphere

D. Troposphere

The correct answer is A. Stratosphere

Explanation:

The ozone layer as indicated by its name is mainly composed of Ozone (O2), this layer is essential for life because it filters ultraviolet radiation and acts as a greenhouse effect gas by trapping part of the heat from the sun. Additionally, the ozone layer is located in the stratosphere, which is the second layer of the atmosphere and can be found between 20 km to 50 km from Earth's surface. Moreover, the existence of the ozone layer in the stratosphere makes the temperature increase with height due to the radiation of the sun filter by ozone.

Molodets [167]

You are true, Stokey.  The correct choice is<em> (c)</em>.

If you think about it a little bit more, you'll realize that "side to side" is also a horizontal motion.  

Anyway, the question told us that we're only talking about 2 dimensions.  Well, the The measurements in the 2 dimensions are the x and the y .  If there were a z measurement, that would be the 3rd dimension.

An open pipe on an organ creates
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: 0.0163

Explanation: fn=n x v/2L

Fundamental frequency =f1

1 x (343/2L) = 10500

Rearrange the equation

L= v/(2xFn)

L= 343/(2x10500)

L=0.0163
