Answer:

c.   V = k Q1 * Q2 / R1      potential energy of Q1 and Q2 separated by R

V2 / V1 = (R1 / R2) = 1/4

V2 = V1 / 4

Give an example of a compound machine. Explain how at least two simple machines are part of this complex machine.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Bicycle

Explanation:

A compound machine is a machine which is a combination of simple machines.

Simple machines are like the pulley, inclined plane or a screw.

Suppose a bicycle is considered, it has more than one simple machine combined together, for it to work. Wheel and axle is one of them and the beam which is pivoted at a fixed hinge is another simple machine in it.

The pedals of the bicycle function as the lever.

A rock thrown straight up takes 4.2 s to reach its maximum height what was its initial velocity
liubo4ka [24]

Consider the upward direction of motion as positive and downward direction of motion as negative.

a = acceleration due to gravity in downward direction = - 9.8 \frac{m }{s^{2}}

v₀ = initial velocity of rock in upward direction = ?

v = final velocity of rock at the highest point = 0 \frac{m }{s}

t = time to reach the maximum height = 4.2 sec

Using the kinematics equation

v = v₀ + a t

inserting the values

0 = v₀ + (- 9.8) (4.2)

v₀ = 41.2 \frac{m }{s}

[7 pts] 1. Suppose that a car starts from rest, its engine providing an acceleration of 4 ft/s2 while air resistance provides 0.
kumpel [21]

Answer:

a) Initial Value Problem

dv/dt = 4 - 0.1v

v(0) = 0

b) solution to the IVP

v(t) = 40(1 - e^(-t/10))

c) Limiting velocity

Vo = 40 ft/s

Position of the car after 12 hours

X = 14,390 ft

Why does a gymnast rub powder on his hands before exercising on a set of parallel bars? (I need a scientific answer)
dlinn [17]

<u>Answer</u>

To increase friction for a better grip.

<u>Answer</u>

Most human beings do sweat hands especially on the palm. When this happens the person will not have a good grip of heavy objects because they will slide/slip from the hand.

<em>By applying the powder, you are trying to make the hand dry hence increasing the friction for a better grip. </em>

If the gymnast doesn't do this the parallel bars may slip from the hands and injure himself or herself.
