Answer:

When the Earth and sun are perfectly lined up, then it will happen. They can tell when it's going to happen.

Explanation:

This is why it only happens in some places. Some days it's not sunny out, so it's not going to happen.

You are standing on a skateboard, initially at rest. a friend throws a very heavy ball towards you. you can either catch the obj

PIT_PIT [208]

<span>You should deflect the ball in order to maximize your speed on the skateboard.

Since this creates a larger impulse, you want to deflect the ball. Splitting it up into catching and throwing the ball may by something you can think of deflecting the ball. First, you need to catch the ball, which in turn would push you forward with some speed. (The speed we are talking about should obviously be equal to option A, where you catch the ball). Now, throw the ball back to him since these two processes are equal to deflecting the ball. Throwing a mass away from you would cause or enable you to move even fast.</span>

If Frequency F, velocity v, and density D are considered fundamental units, the dimensional formula for momentum will be :

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Let's see

Momentum be P

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow P=[Frequency]^a[velocity]^b[Density]^c$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow [P]=[F]^a[v]^b[D]^c$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow [M^1L^1T^{-1}]=[T^{-1}]^a[L^1T^{-1}]^b[M^1L^{-3}]^c$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow MLT^{-1}=T^{-a}L^bT^{-b}M^cL^{-3c}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow MLT^{-1}=T^{-a-b}L^{b-3c}M^c$

On comaparing

c=1

So

b-3c=1
b-3=1
b=1+3
b=4

and

-a-b=-1
-a-4=-1
-a=-1+4=3
a=-3

So the unit is

DV⁴/F³

8. Fig. 4.1 shows a heavy ball B of weight W suspended from a fixed beam by two ropes P and Q.

mart [117]

Answer:

The resultant tension of the two ropes is approximately 42.4 N

The length of the line representing the resultant tension is approximately 8.48 cm

Please find included with the answer the scale drawing created with Microsoft Word

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The tension in rope P, $T_P$ = 30 N

The tension in rope Q, $T_Q$ = 30 N

The angle the rope, 'P', makes with the horizontal = 45°

The angle the rope, 'Q', makes with the horizontal = 45°

The scale factor of the scale diagram, S.F. = 5.0 N/cm

By the resolution of forces at equilibrium, we have;

The sum of the vertical forces, $\Sigma F_y$ = $T_P_y$ + $T_Q_y$ + W = 0

∴ W = -( $T_P_y$ + $T_Q_y$ )

W = -(30 × sin(45°) + 30 × sin(45°)) = -42.4264068712

The weight of the heavy ball, W ≈ 42.4 N acting downwards

The sum of the horizontal forces, $\Sigma F_x$ = $T_P_x$ + $T_Q_x$ = 0

The length of the resultant force, W = W/(S.F.) ≈ 42.4 N/(5.0 N/cm) = 8.48 cm

The drawing of the vectors using the scale factor of 5.0 N/cm is created using Microsoft Word is included

The time, t, required to drive a fixed distance varies inversely as the speed, r. It takes 3 hr at a speed of 14 km/h to driv

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

time taken with speed 23 km/h will be 1.8 hours or 1 hour 48 minutes

Explanation:

Given:

Time is inversely proportional to the speed

mathematically,

t ∝ (1/r)

let the proportionality constant be 'k'

thus,

t = k/r

therefore, for case 1

time = 3 hr

speed = 14 km/hr

3 = k/14

also,

for case 2

let the time be = t

r = 23 km/h

thus,

we have

t = k/23

on dividing equation 2 by 1

we get

$\frac{t}{3}=\frac{k/23}{k/14}$

or

$t=\frac{14\times3}{23}$

or

t = 1.8 hr = or 1 hour 48 minutes ( 0.8 hours × 60 minutes/hour = 48 minutes)
