A boxer can hit a heavy bag with great force. Why can't he hit a piece of tissue paper in midair with the same amount of force?
12345 [234]

Answer:

This is due to impulse

Explanation:

Impulse equal to mΔv and FΔt

You can set these equal as mΔv = FΔt

When a boxer punches a tissue, it is like punching a cushion or a pillow. The time that the hit takes is much grater than if they were to hit something solid. In addition, the change in velocity of the boxer's arm would be much greater when they hit a punching bag. In this equation, the greater the time, the less force that is needed.

How high was a brick dropped from if if falls in 2.5 seconds?
jenyasd209 [6]
Using the kinematic equation d =  V_0 * t  + 1/2 * a * t^2, where d is height you can rewrite this to be d = 1/2*g*t^2 or 4.9t^2
g = a because this is a free fall 
d = 1/2 * 9.81m/s^2 * 2.5^2
d = 30.65625m
d = 30.7m

A ball with a mass of 3.1 kg is moving in a uniform circular motion upon a horizontal surface. The ball is attached at the cente
inessss [21]

Answer:

3.46 seconds

Explanation:

Since the ball is moving in circular motion thus centripetal force will be acting there along the rope.

The equation for the centripetal force is as follows -

F=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Where, m is the mass of the ball, v is the speed and r is the radius of the circular path which will be equal to the length of the rope.

This centripetal force will be equal to the tension in the string and thus we can write,

20.4 = \frac{3.1\times v^2}{2}

and, v^2 = 13.16

Thus, v = 3.63 m/s.

Now, the total length of circular path = circumference of the circle

Thus, total path length = 2πr = 2 × 3.14 × 2 = 12.56 m

Time taken to complete one revolution = \frac{\text {Path length} }{\text {Speed}} = \frac{12.56}{3.63} = 3.46 seconds.

Thus, the mass will complete one revolution in 3.46 seconds.

Why is it not advisable to touch a canvas tent from inside when it is raining?​
Sauron [17]

Answer: When you touch wet canvas, surface tension will draw water to your finger. However, the drop left behind where you touched, like any irregular point on an overhead surface, will draw condensation from inside the tent if it is humid.

Light of wavelength 597 nm falls on a double slit, and the first bright fringe of the interference pattern is seen at an angle o
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

2.2 µm

Explanation:

For constructive interference, the expression is:

d\times sin\theta=m\times \lambda

Where, m = 1, 2, .....

d is the distance between the slits.

Given wavelength = 597 nm

Angle, \theta  = 15.8°

First bright fringe means , m = 1

So,

d\times sin\ 15.8^0=1\times \597\ nm

d\times 0.2723=1\times \597\ nm

d=2192.43481\ nm

Also,

1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m

1 µm = 10⁻⁶ m

So,

1 nm = 10⁻³ nm

Thus,

<u>Distance between slits ≅ 2.2 µm</u>
