In a 350-m race, runner A starts from rest and accelerates at 1.6 m/s^2 for the first 30 m and then runs at constant speed. Runn

kifflom [539]

Answer:

B can take 0.64 sec for the longest nap .

Explanation:

Given that,

Total distance = 350 m

Acceleration of A = 1.6 m/s²

Distance = 30 m

Acceleration of B = 2.0 m/s²

We need to calculate the time for A

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at_{A}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$30=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.6\times t_{A}^2$

$t_{A}=\sqrt{\dfrac{30\times2}{1.6}}$

$t_{A}=6.12\ sec$

We need to calculate the time for B

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at_{B}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$30=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times2.0\times t_{B}^2$

$t_{B}=\sqrt{\dfrac{30\times2}{2.0}}$

$t_{B}=5.48\ sec$

We need to calculate the time for longest nap

Using formula for difference of time

$t'=t_{A}-t_{B}$

$t'=6.12-5.48$

$t'=0.64\ s$

Hence, B can take 0.64 sec for the longest nap .

The standard normal curve is not symmetrical. <br> a. True<br> b. False

FrozenT [24]

Answer;

The above statement is false

Explanation;

Symmetrical distribution, commonly known as symmetric distribution or normal distribution, is typically unimodal, meaning it shows only one peak in graph form.

It is a type of distribution where the left side of the distribution mirrors the right side. By definition, a symmetric distribution is never a skewed distribution.

All normal distributions are symmetric and have bell-shaped density curves with a single peak.

Which of these is true about kinetic energy but not necessarily true about potential energy

cestrela7 [59]

Kinetic energy is never negative, but potential energy can be.

Potential energy depends on height above some reference level,
and you can pick any level you want as the reference. So, if the
object is below the reference level you pick, then its potential
energy relative to your reference level is negative.

What that means is: You have to lift it / do work on it / give it more
energy than it has now ... in order to move it to the reference level.

(That's exactly the situation with electrons bound to an atom. Their
energy is considered negative, because we have to do work and
give them more energy to rip them away from the atom.)
_____________________________________

Regarding the other choices:

-- Kinetic energy is scalar ... Yes. So is potential energy.

-- Kinetic energy increases with height ...
No. It doesn't, but potential energy does.

-- Kinetic energy depends on position ...
No. It doesn't, but potential energy does.
