Shelby the Skater's rocket provides a forward force of

Physics
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a=3.17\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Force force acting on the Skater's rocket is 220 N

Resistive force acting on it, F' = 30 N

Mass of Shelby, m = 60 kg

We need to find the acceleration of Shelby. Net force acting on Shelby is given by :

Net force = 220-30

= 190 N

The formula of net force is :

F = ma

a is acceleration of Shelby

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{190}{60}\\\\a=3.17\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of Shelby is 3.17\ m/s^2

Has anyone done the science project: modeling waves/properties of light?
igor_vitrenko [27]
<h2>MARK BRAINLIEST</h2>

For this assignment, you will develop several models that show how light waves and mechanical waves are reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through various materials. For each model, you will write a brief description of the interaction between the wave and the material. You will also compose two <u><em>typewritten</em></u> paragraphs. The first will compare and contrast light waves interacting with different materials. The second will explain why materials with certain properties are well suited for particular functions.

<h2><u>Background Information</u></h2>

A wave is any disturbance that carries energy from one place to another. There are two different types of waves: mechanical and electromagnetic. A mechanical wave carries energy through matter. Energy is transferred through vibrating particles of matter. Examples of mechanical waves include ocean waves, sound waves, and seismic waves. Like a mechanical wave, an electromagnetic wave can also carry energy through matter. However, unlike a mechanical wave, an electromagnetic wave does not need particles of matter to carry energy. Examples of electromagnetic waves include microwaves, visible light, X-rays, and radiation from the Sun.

In a Broadway performance, an 84.5-kg actor swings from a R = 4.30-m-long cable that is horizontal when he starts. At the bottom
Arada [10]

Answer:

1.57772 m

Explanation:

M = Mass of actor = 84.5 kg

m = Mass of costar = 55 kg

v = Velocity of costar

V  = Velocity of actor

h_i = Intial height of actor = 4.3 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

As the energy of the system is conserved

\frac{1}{2}MV^2=Mgh_i\\\Rightarrow V=\sqrt{2gh_i}\\\Rightarrow V=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 4.3}\\\Rightarrow V=9.18509\ m/s

As the linear momentum is conserved

MV=(m+M)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{MV}{m+M}\\\Rightarrow V=\frac{84.5\times 9.18509}{84.5+55}\\\Rightarrow v=5.56372\ m/s

Applying conservation of energy again

\frac{1}{2}(m+M)v^2=(m+M)gh_f\\\Rightarrow h_f=\frac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow h_f=\frac{5.56372^2}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h_f=1.57772\ m

The maximum height they reach is 1.57772 m
