Answer:

0.6 m/s

Explanation:

The details of the masses and velocities are;

The mass of the ice skater, m₁ = 80 kg

The mass of the ball, m₂ = 8 kg

The speed with which the skater tosses the ball forward, v₂ = 6 m/s

Therefore;

According to the principle of conservation of linear momentum, we have;

m₁·v₁ = m₂·v₂

Where;

v₁ = The skater's reactive velocity

Therefore, we get;

80 kg × v₁ = 8 kg × 6 m/s

v₁ = 8 kg × 6 m/s/(80 kg) = 0.6 m/s

The skater's reactive velocity, v₁ = 0.6 m/s.

An electric heater rated 500 W operates 24 hours/ day. what is the cost of energy to operate it for 20 days at Rs. 2.00 per kWh
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Rs. 480.00

Explanation:

1kW = 1000W

therefore 500W = 0.5kW

20 × 24hrs = 480hrs in total.

0.5kW × 480hrs = 240kWh

if rs. 2 for 1kWh

then, 240kWh × 2 = Rs. 480.

¿Cuál es la aceleración centrípeta de un móvil que recorre una
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

a)  a = 4.57 m/s², b)  a = 6.48 m / s² , c)  a = 1.42 m / s²,d)   r = 82.3 m

 

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is the acceleration responsible for the change of direction of the acceleration vector and occurs in circular movements, the expression is

           a = v² / r

let's apply this precaution to our cases

a) let's calculate

          a = 8²/14

         a = 4.57 m/s²

b) an automobile at v = 65 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1 h / 3600 s) =18,055 m/s

let's reduce feet to meters

          1 ft = 0.3048 m

           r = 165 ft (0.3048 m / 1 ft) = 50.292 m

          a = 18,055 2 / 50,292

           a = 6.48 m / s²

c) we calculate

          a = 1.25²2 / 1.1

          a = 1.42 m / s²

d) we look for the radius

          a = v² / r

          r = v² / a

we reduce

          v = 80 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 22.22  ms

          r = 22.22²/6

          r = 82.3 m

e) the cenripeta acceleration is used to take the curves on the highway,

    Used in centrifuges to separate compounds

       It is used in the games of the park of atraccio

     Used in CD players and computer hard drives

A parallel beam of light of wavelength 4.5 x 10^-7 m is incident on a pair of slits that are 5.0 x 10^-4 m apart. The interferen
RSB [31]

Answer:

1.8x10⁻³m

Explanation:

From the question above, the following information was used to solve the problem.

wavelength λ = 4.5x10⁻⁷m

Length L = 2.0 meters

distance d = 5 x 10₋⁴m

ΔY = λL/d

= 4.5x10⁻⁷m (2) / 5 x 10₋⁴m

= 0.00000045 / 0.0005

= 0.0000009/0.0005

= 0.0018

= 1.8x10⁻³m

from the solution above The separation between two adjacent bright fringes is most nearly 1.8x10⁻³m

thank you!
