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.

In Thomson’s experiment, why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate?
Svetllana [295]

The glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because they were negatively charged

<h3>What are the nature of charges?</h3>

The nature of charges refers to the properties of charges.

There are two types of charges:

  • negative charges
  • positive charges

The law of electricity states that opposite charges attract whereas like charges repel.

Therefor, in Thomson’s experiment, the glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because they were negatively charged

In conclusion, like charges repel while opposite charges attract.

A 5-kg concrete block is lowered with a downward acceleration of 2.8 m/s2 by means of a rope. The force of the block on the Eart
maksim [4K]

When the body touches the ground two types of Forces will be generated. The Force product of the weight and the Normal Force. This is basically explained in Newton's third law in which we have that for every action there must also be a reaction. If the Force of the weight is pointing towards the earth, the reaction Force of the block will be opposite, that is, upwards and will be equivalent to its weight:

F = mg

Where,

m = mass

g = Gravitational acceleration

F = 5*9.8

F = 49N

Therefore the correct answer is E.

A body travels 30m in 5s, 45m in 7s and then 65m in the last 5s. Find the average speed of the body
JulijaS [17]
We can find the average speed of the body by finding the total distance covered, and then dividing it by the total time of the motion.

The total distance covered is:
S=30 m + 45m+65m=140 m

while the total time of the motion is
t=5 s+7s+5 s=17 s

So, the average speed of the body is:
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{140 m}{17 s}=8.24 m/s

roblem 10: In an adiabatic process oxygen gas in a container is compressed along a path that can be described by the following p
miskamm [114]

Answer:

W= -2.5 (p₁*0.0012) joules

Explanation:

Given that p₀= initial pressure, p₁=final pressure, Vi= initial volume=0 and Vf=final volume= 6/5 liters where p₁=p₀ then

In adiabatic compression, work done by mixture during compression is

W= \int\limits^f_i {p} \, dV  where f= final volume and i =initial volume, p=pressure

p can be written as p=K/V^γ where K=p₀Vi^γ =p₁Vf^γ

W= \int\limits^f_i {K/V^} \, dV

W= K/1-γ ( 1/Vf^γ-1 - 1/Vi^γ-1)

W=1/1-γ (p₁Vf-p₀Vi)

W= 1/1-1.40 (p₁*6/5 -p₀*0)  

W= -2.5 (p₁*6/5*0.001)   changing liters to m³

W= -2.5 (p₁*0.0012) joules
