Which best explains why we are able to accelerate forward when starting to run? A) The runner's upper body quickly leans forward

, causing the entire body to begin accelerating forward. B) As one leg moves backward, it provides an opposite force for the other foot to move forward. C) The foot not touching the ground propels the entire body as it swings forward. D) The striking foot pushes backward against the ground. The friction with the ground provides an equal and opposite force forward.

A scuba diver and her gear displace a volume of 67.0 l and have a total mass of 64.0 kg. (a) what is the buoyant force on the di
slavikrds [6]
Buoyant force is the force that is a result from the pressure exerted by a fluid on the object. We calculate this value by using the Archimedes principle where it says that the upward buoyant force that is being exerted to a body that is immersed in the fluid is equal to the fluid's weight that the object has displaced. Buoyant force always acts opposing the direction of weight. We calculate as follows:

Fb = W
Fb = mass (acceleration due to gravity)
Fb = 64.0 kg ( 9.81 m/s^2)
Fb = 627.84 kg m/s^2

Therefore, the buoyant force that is exerted on the diver in the sea water would be 627.84 N

siniylev [52]

The valence electrons of metals are weakly attracted to the parent nuclei, so the electrons break free and float. The moving electrons form a electron <u>negative</u> blanket that binds the atomic <u>positive</u> nuclei together, forming a metallic bond.

So the answers are <u>{ Negative }</u> and <u>{ Positive }.</u>

On a frictionless horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.254 kg ) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.367 kg ), which is ini
irinina [24]

Answer:

v_a=0.8176 m/s

\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of both pucks won't be changed regardless of their interaction if no external forces are acting on the system.

Being m_a and m_b the masses of pucks a and b respectively, the initial momentum of the system is

M_1=m_av_a+m_bv_b

Since b is initially at rest

M_1=m_av_a

After the collision and being v'_a and v'_b the respective velocities, the total momentum is

M_2=m_av'_a+m_bv'_b

Both momentums are equal, thus

m_av_a=m_av'_a+m_bv'_b

Solving for v_a

v_a=\frac{m_av'_a+m_bv'_b}{m_a}

v_a=\frac{0.254Kg\times (-0.123 m/s)+0.367Kg (0.651m/s)}{0.254Kg}

v_a=0.8176 m/s

The initial kinetic energy can be found as (provided puck b is at rest)

K_1=\frac{1}{2}m_av_a^2

K_1=\frac{1}{2}(0.254Kg) (0.8176m/s)^2=0.0849 J

The final kinetic energy is

K_2=\frac{1}{2}m_av_a'^2+\frac{1}{2}m_bv_b'^2

K_2=\frac{1}{2}0.254Kg (-0.123m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}0.367Kg (0.651m/s)^2=0.07969 J

The change of kinetic energy is

\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J
