Answer:

<h3>13.28m/s</h3>

Explanation:

Complete question:

<em>A skateboarder rolls horizontally off the top of a staircase and lands at the bottom. The staircase has a horizontal length of 12.0m with a vertical drop of 2.0m. Calculate the speed of the skateboard. We can ignore air resistance.</em>

Using the following equations of motion;

Horizontal displacement

x = vt............ 1

Vertical component;

y = 1/2gt² ....... 2

v is the speed

t is the time

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Frim 1;

t = x/v ..... 3

Substitute equation 3 into 2;

From 2; y =  1/2gt² .

y = 1/2 g(x/v)²

y = 1/2 gx²/v²

y =  gx²/2v²

v² = gx²/2y

v = √gx²/2y

Given;

x = 12m

y = 2m

g = 9.8m/s²

Substitute the given parameters into the give equation;

v = √(9.8)(12)²/2(4)

v =  √(9.8)(144)/8

v =  √1411.2/8

v = √176.4

v = 13.28m/s

Hence the approximate speed of the skateboard is 13.28m/s

Assume that the speed of light in a vacuum has the hypothetical value of 18.0 m/s. A car is moving at a constant speed of 14.0 m
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Observed time, t = 5.58 s  

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of light in a vacuum has the hypothetical value of, c = 18 m/s

Speed of car, v = 14 m/s along a straight road.

A home owner sitting on his porch sees the car pass between two telephone poles in 8.89 s.

We need to find the time the driver of the car measure for his trip between the poles. The relation between real and observed time is given by :

T=\dfrac{t}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}} }

t is observed time.

t=T\times \sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}} \\\\t=8.89\times \sqrt{1-\dfrac{14^2}{18^2}} \\\\t=5.58\ s

So, the time observed by the driver of the car measure for his trip between the poles is 5.58 seconds.

a person whose mass is 72 kg has a momentum of 700 kg/m/s (E) .What velocity must this person be travelling at?(2 sig figs)
liberstina [14]
From the information given, the mass of the moving body, which in this case is a person, is 72 kg and the momentum 700 kg m/s. we use the formula p = m × v. Where p is momentum, m is the mass and v is the velocity. We need v so we rewrite the equation thus: v = p/m In our case p = 700 and m = 72 v = p/m → v = 700/ 72 → v = 9.72 Therefore the person is travelling at 9.72 m/s

Electromagnetic waves are used extensively in modern technology. Many devices are built to emit and/or receive EM waves at a ver
il63 [147K]

Answer: Option D and E

Explanation: Across the electromagnet spectrum, the frequency increases but the wavelength reduces.

This implies that radio waves have the longest wavelength but the smallest frequency, while gamma rays have the shortest wavelength but the highest frequency.

This implies that there is an inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency.

Of all the technologies listed above, wireless internet has the highest frequency hence making it have the shortest wavelength.

Also by comparing values from the data given to us above, it is possible for some wireless internet device to operate within the same frequency range of the microwave.
