Answer:

please give me brainlist and follow

Explanation:

The heating of the Earth's surface and atmosphere by the sun drives convection within the atmosphere and ocean. This convection produces winds and ocean currents.

oscillating spring mass systems can be used to experimentally determine an unknown mass without using a mass balance. a student

puteri [66]

Answer:

Mass, m = 6.18 kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency, F = 10 Hz

Spring constant, k = 250 N/m

We know that pie, π = 22/7

To find the mass, we would use the following formula;

F = 1/2π√(k/m)

Where;

F is the frequency of oscillation.

k is the spring constant.

m is the mass of the spring.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

10 = 1/2 * 22/7 * √250/m

10 = 22/14 * √250/m

Cross-multiplying, we have;

140 = 22 * √250/m

Dividing both sides by 22, we have;

140/22 = √250/m

6.36 = √250/m

Taking the square of both sides, we have;

6.36² = (√250/m)²

40.45 = 250/m

Cross-multiplying, we have;

40.45m = 250

Mass, m = 250/40.45

Mass, m = 6.18 kg

A diver running 2.5 m/s dives out horizontally from the edge of a vertical cliff and 3.0 s later reaches the water below. how hi

Elodia [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

a) Height of cliff = 44.145 meter

b) 7.5 meter far from its base the diver hit the water.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have equation of motion , $s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$ , s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

Diver's vertical motion:

Initial velocity = 0 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 $m/s^2$ , we need to calculate displacement when time is 3 seconds.

$s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2\\ \\ =0*3+\frac{1}{2} *9.81*3^2\\ \\ =44.145meter$

So height of cliff = 44.145 meter.

b) Diver's horizontal motion:

Initial velocity = 2.5 m/s, acceleration = 0 $m/s^2$ , we need to calculate displacement when time is 3 seconds.

$s= 2.5*3+\frac{1}{2}*0*3^2\\ \\ =7.5meter$

So 7.5 meter far from its base the diver hit the water.

A boat can travel in still water at 56 m/s. If the boats sails directly across a river that flows at 126 m/s. What is the boats

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The speed of the boat in still water is perpendicular to the speed of the water flow. Therefore the speed relative to the ground (V), the speed of flow and the speed of the boat in still water form a right angled triangle. Hence the speed relative to the ground is given as:

V² = 56² + 126²

V² = 19012

V = 137.9 m/s
