Answer:

glass if for a good view, but for absorbing heat concrete and brick is the best

Explanation:

wood is not a good idea bc it can cause fires from too much heat and it absorbs less heat but all of that depends on how good the material your using

Tectonic plates are large segments of the earth's crust that move slowly. Suppose one such plate has an average speed of 6.0 cm
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

1.35×10⁻⁷ m

37.278 mi/My

Explanation:

Speed of the tectonic plate= 6 cm/yr

Converting to seconds

6=\frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}

So in one second it will move

\frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}

In 71 seconds

71\times \frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}=1.35\times 10^{-5}\ cm

The tectonic plate will move 1.35×10⁻⁵ cm or 1.35×10⁻⁷ m

Convert to mi/My

1 cm = 6.213×10⁻⁶ mi

1 M = 10⁶ years

6\times 6.213\times 10^{-6}\times 10^6=37.278\ mi/My

Speed of the tectonic plate is 37.278 mi/My

A cyclist travels at 15 m/s during a sprint finish. What is this speed in km/h
g100num [7]

Answer:

54 km/hr

Explanation:

m/s to km/hr => 18/5

15 m/s to km/hr => 15 x 18/5 =>3 x 18 => 54km/hr

A world-class sprinter running a 100 m dash was clocked at 5.4 m/s 1.0 s after starting running and at 9.8 m/s 1.5 s later. In w
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

<em>The output power is greater in the interval from 1.0 s to 2.5 s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Physical Power </u>

It measures the amount of work W an object does in certain time t. The formula needed to compute power is

\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}

Work can be computed in several ways since we are given the motion conditions, we'll use this formula, for F= applied force, x=distance parallel to F

W=F.x

The second Newton's law gives us the net force as

F=m.a

being m the mass of the object and a the acceleration it has for a given period of time. In our problem, we have two different behaviors for each interval and we must calculate this force since the acceleration is changing. Let's calculate the acceleration in the first interval. We can use the formula for the final speed vf knowing the initial speed vo (which is 0 because the sprinter starts from rest), the acceleration a, and the time t:

v_f=v_o+at

v_f=at

Solving for a

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f}{t}={5.4}{1}

a=5.4\ m/s^2

The distance traveled in the interval is given by

\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}

Since vo=0

\displaystyle x=\frac{a.t^2}{2}=\frac{5.4(1)^2}{2}

x=2.7\ m

The force is given by

F=m.a

We don't know the value of m, so the force is

F=2.7m

Computing the work done by the sprinter

W=F.x=2.7m(5.4)

W=14.58m

The power is finally computed

\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{14.58m}{1}

P=14.58m

During the second interval, from t=1 sec to 1.5 sec, the speed changes from 5.4 m/s to 9.8 m/s. This allows us to compute the second acceleration

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}=\frac{9.8-5.4}{0.5}

a=8.8\ m/s^2

The distance is

\displaystyle x=(5.4).(0.5)+\frac{8.8(0.5)^2}{2}

x=3.8\ m

The net force is

F=m(8.8)=8.8m

The work done by the sprinter is now computed as

W=8.8m(3.8)=33.44m

At last, the output power is

\displaystyle P=\frac{33.44m}{0.5}=66.88m

By comparing both results, and being m the same for both parts, we conclude the output power is greater in the interval from 1.0 s to 2.5 s

A 60kg bicyclist (including the bicycle) is pedaling to the
Fittoniya [83]

a) 4 forces

b) 186 N

c) 246 N

Explanation:

a)

Let's count the forces acting on the bicylist:

1) Weight (W=mg): this is the gravitational force exerted on the bicyclist by the Earth, which pulls the bicyclist towards the Earth's centre; so, this force acts downward (m = mass of the bicyclist, g = acceleration due to gravity)

2) Normal reaction (N): this is the reaction force exerted by the road on the bicyclist. This force acts vertically upward, and it balances the weight, so its magnitude is equal to the weight of the bicyclist, and its direction is opposite

3) Applied force (F_A): this is the force exerted by the bicylicist to push the bike forward. Its direction is forward

4) Air drag (R): this is the force exerted by the air on the bicyclist and resisting the motion of the bike; its direction is opposite to the motion of the bike, so it is in the backward direction

So, we have 4 forces in total.

b)

Here we can find the net force on the bicyclist by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between the mass of the body and its acceleration:

F_{net}=ma

where

F_{net} is the net force

m is the mass of the body

a is its acceleration

In this problem we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of the bicyclist

a=3.1 m/s^2 is its acceleration

Substituting, we find the net force on the bicyclist:

F_{net}=(60)(3.1)=186 N

c)

We can write the net force acting on the bicyclist in the horizontal direction as the resultant of the two forces acting along this direction, so:

F_{net}=F_a-R

where:

F_{net} is the net force

F_a is the applied force (forward)

R is the air drag (backward)

In this problem we have:

F_{net}=186 N is the net force (found in part b)

R=60 N is the magnitude of the air drag

Solving for F_a, we find the force produced by the bicyclist while pedaling:

F_a=F_{net}+R=186+60=246 N
