Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

This question can be better understood when discussed using the Newton's first law of motion which states that an object would continue to move with a uniform speed (in a straight line) unless acted upon by an external force. What happens here (in the question) is that the bike rider would have continued moving at a constant speed (to the right) if not for the opposing force of the wind that acted against her (to the left). <u>This wind/force would cause her speed to reduce or slow down (as posited by the law)</u>.

A projectile fired up into the air at an angle has a range of 235 m and a flight time of 47 s.
madam [21]
<h2>Answer:5ms^{-1},133.6m,51.18ms^{-1}</h2>

Explanation:

Let v_{x},v_{y} be the horizontal and vertical components of velocity.

Question a:

Horizontal component of velocity is the ratio of range and time of flight.

So,horizontal component of velocity is \frac{235}{47}=5ms^{-1}

So,v_{x}=5ms^{-1}

Question b:

Time of flight=\frac{2v_{y}}{g}

So,v_{y}=\frac{47\times 9.8}{2}=51.18ms^{-1}

Maximum height is given by \frac{v_{y}^{2}}{2g}

So,maximum height is \frac{51.18^{2}}{2\times 9.8}=133.6m

Question c:

The vertical velocity is already calculated in Question b.

v_{y}=51.18ms^{-1}

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line
poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.

A geologist sees a fault along which blocks of rock in the footwall have moved higher relative to blocks of rock in the hanging
Luda [366]

Answer: Normal fault

Explanation:

The type of fault that is explained above is a normal fault. We should note that normal faults typically takes place in a divergent boundary in a scenario where the crusts may have been pulled apart.

Since the crust is pulled apart in this case, it leads to the downward movement of the hanging wall which leads to the football being above the hanging wall.

How much force was applied to an object if was moved 2 meters and the work done on the object was 8 joules?
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The answer is 4N or B

Explanation:

Just the equation W = F x D.

We have W = 8 J and D = 2 m using algebra ....

8J/2m = F ... F = 4.
