Explanation:

With most of our blue planet covered by water, it's little wonder that, centuries ago, the oceans were believed to hide mysterious creatures including sea serpents and mermaids. Merfolk (mermaids and mermen) are, of course, the marine version of half-human, half-animal legends that have captured human imagination for ages. One source, the "Arabian Nights," described mermaids as having "moon faces and hair like a woman's but their hands and feet were in their bellies and they had tails like fishes."

C.J.S. Thompson, a former curator at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, notes in his book "The Mystery and Lore of Monsters" that "Traditions concerning creatures half-human and half-fish in form have existed for thousands of years, and the Babylonian deity Era or Oannes, the Fish-god ... is usually depicted as having a bearded head with a crown and a body like a man, but from the waist downwards he has the shape of a fish." Greek mythology contains stories of the god Triton, the merman messenger of the sea, and several modern religions including Hinduism and Candomble (an Afro-Brazilian belief) worship mermaid goddesses to this day.

Why do slippery fluids such as oil reduce sliding friction

Gwar [14]

fluid friction occurs when an object moves through a liquid or gas. the force needed to overcome fluid friction is usually less then that needed to overcome sliding friction. the fluid keeps the surface from making direct contact and thus reducing friction.

Starting from rest, a basketball rolls from the top to the bottom of a hill, reaching a translational speed of 6.1 m/s. Ignore f

Answer:

a) h=3.16 m, b) v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy

Starting point. Highest on the hill

Em₀ = U = mg h

final point. Lowest point

$Em_{f}$ = K

Scientific energy has two parts, one of translation of center of mass (center of the sphere) and one of stationery, the sphere

K = ½ m $v_{cm }^{2}$ + ½ $I_{cm}$ w²

angular and linear speed are related

v = w r

w = v / r

K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} v_{cm }^{2} / r²

Em_{f} = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r2)

as there are no friction losses, mechanical energy is conserved

Em₀ = Em_{f}

mg h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r²) (1)

h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + I_{cm} / mr²)

for the moment of inertia of a basketball we can approximate it to a spherical shell

I_{cm} = ⅔ m r²

we substitute

h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + ⅔ mr² / mr²)

h = ½ v_{cm }^{2}/g 5/3

h = 5/6 v_{cm }^{2} / g

let's calculate

h = 5/6 6.1 2 / 9.8

h = 3.16 m

b) this part of the exercise we solve the speed of equation 1

v_{cm }^{2} = 2m gh / (1 + I_{cm} / r²)

in this case the object is a frozen juice container, which we can simulate a solid cylinder with moment of inertia

I_{cm} = ½ m r²

we substitute

v_{cm } = √ [2gh / (1 + ½)]

v_{cm } = √(4/3 gh)

let's calculate

v_{cm } = √ (4/3 9.8 3.16)

v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s

Here it is an application of Newton's III law

as we know by Newton's III law that every action has equal and opposite reaction

So here as we know that two boys jumps off the boat with different forces

from front side of the boat the boy jumps off with force 45 N which means as per Newton's III law if boy has a force of 45 N in forward direction then he must apply a reaction force on the boat in reverse direction of same magnitude

So boat must have an opposite force on front end with magnitude 45 N

Now similar way we can say

from back side of the boat the boy jumps off with force 60 N which means as per Newton's III law if boy has a force of 60 N in backward direction then he must apply a reaction force on the boat in reverse direction of same magnitude

So boat must have an opposite force on front end with magnitude 60 N

So here net force due to both jump on the boat is given by

$F_{net} = F_1 - F_2$
