A cross-country skier travels 40 meters north in 2 minutes. What is the skiers velocity?

Physics

6 0

Answer:

v = 0.33 [m/s]

Explanation:

We must remember that speed is defined as the relationship between the displacement in a given time. In this way, we can propose the following equation.

v=d/t

where:

v = velocity [m/s]

d = displacement = 40 [m]

t = 2 [min] = 120 [s]

Now replacing we have:

v=40/120\\v=0.33[m/s]

What is the mechanical advantage of a pulley system​
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Pulleys accomplish 2 separate operations throughout the computer controlled additional benefit technologies listed elsewhere here.

Explanation:

  • If indeed the pulley would be connected to that same attachment point, these are named a corrected pendulum or perhaps a change in direction. Its job should be to reverse the trajectory of that same rope pull.  
  • Unless the pulley would be connected to that same load, this same pulley seems to be a detachable as well as a mechanical additional benefit.

Why must objects be cooled before their mass is determined on a sensitive balance?
zubka84 [21]
Objects should be cooled before their mass is determined on a sensitive balance because it could damage the balance. Also, because it would give you wrong reading of the mass. Hot objects would warm the air around it. A warm air would expand and would produce convection as it rises causing to give the object a mass that is less than the actual. Another reason would be it would cause instability in the readings, the mass would fluctuate every now and then due to the convection currents around the object. It is always recommended to weigh the masses of objects that are in room temperature.

Number 10 and an explaination would be fabulous. thanks!
Sati [7]
Linear momentum has to be conserved. It was zero before the thread eas burned ... when nothing was moving ... so the momentum of the masses moving in opposite directions has to add up to zero. ... Momentum = mass times speed. ... In one direction, you have 5 kg times 1/5 m/s= 1 kg-m/s. ... We need 1 kg-m/s in the other direction. ... 7 kg times speed = 1 kg-m/s. ... Can you finish it from here ?

A tetrahedron has an equilateral triangle base with 25.0-cm-long edges and three equilateral triangle sides. The base is paralle
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

a. 7.046 Nm²/C

b. 2.348 Nm²/C

Explanation:

Data given:

Base of equilateral triangle = 25.0 cm = 0.25 m

Strength of electric field = 260 N/C

In order to find the electric flux we first have to find out the area of triangle.

Area of triangle = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} a^{2}

                         = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} (0.25)^{2}

                         = 0.0271 m³

Lets find electric flux,

      Electric Flux = E. A

                          = 260×0.0271

                          = 7.046 Nm²/C

Now we can find the electric flux through each of the three sides.

Electric flux through three sides = \frac{7.046}{3}

                                                = 2.348 N m²/C

250 W 12 km/h<br>4. Convert yoor answer from 3 to meters per second.​
taurus [48]

Answer: 3.33 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the questions is to convert  12 km/h to meter per second (m/s), let's begin:

In order to make the conversion, we have to know the following:

1 km=1000 m

And:

1 h=3600 s

Keeping this in mind, we can make the conversion:

12 \frac{km}{h} \frac{1000 m}{1 km} \frac{1h}{3600 s}

Then:

12 \frac{km}{h}= 3.33 \frac{m}{s}
