Answer:

3.88m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1+m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and 2 are the initial velocities

v is the final velocity

Given

m1 = 64kg

u1 = 4.2m/s

m2 = 25kg

u2 = 3.2m/s

Required

Final velocity v

Substitute the given values into the formula

64(4.2)+25(3.2) = (65+25)v

268.8+80 = 90v

348.8 = 90v

v = 348.8/90

v = 3.88m/s

Hence the velocity of the kayak after the swimmer jumps off is 3.88m/s

Kay [80]

Explanation:

After some time t the current does not passing through the circuit

=>so the back emf is zero

=>here the inductor opposes decay of the circuit

- Ldi/dt = Ri

di/dt = - R/Li

di/i = - R/Ldt

now we applying the integration on both sides

log i=-R/Lt+C

here t=0=>i=io

Log io=C

=>Log i=-R/L*t + Log io

logi-Log io=-R/L*t

Log[i/io]=-R/L*t

i/io=e^-Rt/L

i=ioe^-Rt/L

the option D is correct

The second one since you’re changing the soil up by adding different fertilisers. This will be you’re independent variable. And you’re dependent variable is your result = the plant height .
Hope this helps :)

A kettle is rated at 1 kW, 220 V. Calculate the working resistance of the kettle.
Anna [14]

Explanation:

Power of electric kettle, P = 1 kW

Voltage, V = 220 V

(a) Electric power is given by the formula as follows :

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

R is resistance

R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(220)^2}{10^3}\\\\R=48.4\ \Omega

(b) When connected to a 220 V supply, it takes 3 minutes for the water in the kettle to reach boiling point.

Energy supplied is given by :

E=P\times t

P is power, P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

E=\dfrac{V^2}{R}t\\\\E=\dfrac{(220)^2}{48.4}\times 180\\\\E=180000\ J\\\\E=180\ kJ
