Three ice skaters meet at the center of a rink and each stands at rest facing the center, within arm's reach of the other two. O

n a signal, each skater pushes himself away from the other two across the frictionless ice. After the push, skater A with mass mA = 70.0 kg moves in the negative y-direction at 2.00 m/s and skater B with mass m = 85.0 kg moves in the negative x-direction at 2.50 m/s. Find the x- and y-components of the 80.0 kg skater C's velocity (in m/s) after the push. HINTvcx= ___ m/svcy=____m/s

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the conservation equations for the moment, specifically for collision. In addition to that, the concepts of vector velocity are necessary, in which the components are obtained and if the total magnitude is necessary.

Conservation of Momentum equation is given by,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2+m_3v_3 = 0

We need to find the speed 3, therefore by readjusting the equation we have,

v_c = \frac{-(m_1v_1+m_2v_2)}{m_3}

v_c = \frac{-(-70*2\hat{j}-85*2.5\hat{j})}{80}

v_c = 2.656\hat{i}+ 1.75\hat{j}

Therefore the components of the velocity would be,

v_{cx} = 2.656m/s

v_{cy} = 1.75m/s

A person is just as likely to become dehydrated in the cold as in the heat. Please select the best answer from the choices provi
alexdok [17]
The answer would be A) TRUE because we as humans can be dehydrated easily just by working out in sun or working out in the cold winter, that's how our body burns fat and calories, but it also burns our eyes since sweat has salt in it, and dehydrated means to run out of water for us, like not enough water, but yes to the answer its T.

Answer:

1, When Jane brakes, the brakes slow the car wheels turning and the road surface exerts a backwards force on the tires, causing the car to decelerate. The pocket book tends to continue on in a straight line (Newton's first law). If she brakes hard enough that the friction between the book and the car seat is insufficient to decelerate the book as fast as the car is decelerating, the book will slide off the seat, and gravity pulls it to the floor

2.

When the diver uses his / her force to depress the springboard, the springboard pushes him back with equal force

A circular track has a radius of 50m.What is the displacement?
stepladder [879]

The displacement of a moving object is the straight-line distance between the place it starts from and the place where it stops.

The displacement of anything moving along a circular track depends on how  far around it goes before it stops.  The greatest displacement it can possibly have is the diameter of the track ... 100m on this particular one ... because that's as far apart as two places on a circle can ever be.

The most interesting case is when the object goes around the circle exactly once.  Then it stops at the same place it started from, the distance between the starting point and ending point is zero, and after all that motion, the displacement is zero.
