Why you cannot use an elastic measuring tape to measure distance. What problem you may face if you use it

Physics

Stells [14]3 years ago

The problem you would encounter is measuring the height of two different people, a tall one and a short one, and getting the same answer for both of them.

No matter WHAT we're hearing out of the White House these days, you CAN'T bend and stretch your standard measuring devices, or any other 'facts', to make them fit the thing that you're measuring.  This does not work.  You're always entitled to your own opinions, but you're not entitled to your own facts.

a person jogs eight complete laps around a 400-m track in a total time of 15.1 min .calculate the average speed, in m/s .
valentinak56 [21]

The average speed in m/s of a person that jogs eight complete laps around a 400m track in a total time of 15.1 min is 0.44m/s.

<h3>How to calculate average speed?</h3>

Average speed of a moving body can be calculated by dividing the distance moved by the time taken.

Average speed = Distance ÷ time

According to this question, a person jogs eight complete laps around a 400m track in a total time of 15.1 min. The average speed is calculated as follows:

15.1 minutes in seconds is as follows = 906 seconds

Average speed = 400m ÷ 906s

Average speed = 0.44m/s

Therefore, the average speed in m/s of a person that jogs eight complete laps around a 400m track in a total time of 15.1 min is 0.44m/s.

At a certain place, Earth's magnetic field has magnitude B =0.703 gauss and is inclined downward at an angle of 75.4° to the hor
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

The charge flows in coulombs is

dq=1.843x10^{-5}C

Explanation:

The current magnitude of current is given by the resistance and the induced Emf as:

I=N*\frac{dF}{Rdt}

\frac{dq}{dt}=\frac{dF}{Rdt}=dq=N*\frac{dF}{R}

dq=\frac{N*\beta*A*(Cos(\alpha_f)-Cos(\alpha_i}{R}

N=1300, \beta=0.703, A=\pi*r^2=\pi*0.10^2=0.01\pi m^2, R=99.4+202=301.4Ω

\alpha_f=14.6,\alpha_i=165.4

Replacing :

dq=\frac{1300*0.703x10^{-4}*0.01\pi*(0.9667-(-0.9667))}{202+99.4}

dq=1.843x10^{-5}C

A basketball is shot from 2 meters up at an angle of 60° above the x axis at an initial velocity of 9 m/s. What is the maximum h
Nikitich [7]

Hope this helps a little

initial distance up = 2

initial velocity component up = 9 sin 60 = 7.79

v = 9 sin 60 - 9.8 t

when v = 0, we are there

9.8 t = 7.79

t = .795 seconds to top

h = 2 + 7.79(.795) - 4.9(.795^2)
