A rugby players runs 10.0 m straight down the playing field in 2.00 s. The player is then hit and pushed 5.00 m straight backwar

d in 1.50 s. The player breaks the tackle and runs straight forward another 17.2 m in 4.10 s. Calculate the velocity for the players entire motion.

Answer:

2.92 m/s

Explanation:

For the entire motion, the average velocity (V) can be calculated thus;

V = \frac{displacement}{time}

Total displacement of the player = 10.0 + (-5) + 17.2

        = 22.2 m

Total time = 2.00 + 1.50 + 4.10

         = 7.60 s

V = 22.2/7.60

       = 2.92 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the players for the entire motion is 2.92 m/s.

Which best explains why the receiver of a signal must understand the code or language being used
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The receiver of a signal must understand the code or language being used to avoid confusion and losses.

<h3>What is a Signal?</h3>

This is usually in the form of a sound or body movement and is involved in conveying messages to people.

The receiver must understand the code or language in order to prevent confusion or loss of lives and properties.

A mass is oscillating with amplitude A at the end of a spring.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

A) x=\pm \frac{A}{2\sqrt{2}}

The total energy of the system is equal to the maximum elastic potential energy, that is achieved when the displacement is equal to the amplitude (x=A):

E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2 (1)

where k is the spring constant.

The total energy, which is conserved, at any other point of the motion is the sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy:

E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2 (2)

where x is the displacement, m the mass, and v the speed.

We want to know the displacement x at which the elastic potential energy is 1/3 of the kinetic energy:

U=\frac{1}{3}K

Using (2) we can rewrite this as

U=\frac{1}{3}(E-U)=\frac{1}{3}E-\frac{1}{3}U\\U=\frac{E}{4}

And using (1), we find

U=\frac{E}{4}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}kA^2}{4}=\frac{1}{8}kA^2

Substituting U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 into the last equation, we find the value of x:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{8}kA^2\\x=\pm \frac{A}{2\sqrt{2}}

B) x=\pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}A

In this case, the kinetic energy is 1/10 of the total energy:

K=\frac{1}{10}E

Since we have

K=E-U

we can write

E-U=\frac{1}{10}E\\U=\frac{9}{10}E

And so we find:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{9}{10}(\frac{1}{2}kA^2)=\frac{9}{20}kA^2\\x^2 = \frac{9}{10}A^2\\x=\pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}A

How can the rate of a reaction be decreased?
andre [41]

Answer:

Option A

Lowering the amount of reactants

Explanation:

To reduce the rate of chemical reaction, one can reduce temperature or surface area. The addition of catalysts increases rate of reaction but decreasing the amount of reactants decreases rate of reaction. Therefore, from the choices provided, choice A is correct.

Waves transport
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

d)energy

Explanation:

Waves can transfer energy over distance without moving matter the entire distance. For example, an ocean wave can travel many kilometers without the water itself moving many kilometers. The water moves up and down—a motion known as a disturbance. It is the disturbance that travels in a wave, transferring energy.
