Bolt starts the race not moving, but then increased his speed until he reaches a top speed. Once Bolt reaches his top speed he m

aintains that speed for a few seconds to: a) move at constant velocity b) accelerate by moving faster c) accelerate by moving slower

LekaFEV [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a

Explanation:

<u>In order to maintain speed, a moving object or person must move at a constant velocity</u>. Accelerating will increase the speed while decelerating will reduce the speed.

Hence, for Bolt to be able to maintain the top speed for a few seconds, he needs to move at a constant velocity.

The correct option is a.

Glycerin is poured into an open U-shaped tube until the height in both sides is 20 cm. Ethyl alcohol is then poured into one arm
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Difference in height = 7.5 cm

Explanation:

We are given;.

Height of ethyl alcohol;h2 = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Density of glycerin: ρ1 = 1260 kg/m³

Density of ethyl alcohol; ρ2 = 790 kg/m³

To get the difference in height, the pressure at the top of the open end must be equal to the pressure at the point where the liquids do not mix since both points will be at different levels after the pouring.

Thus;

P1 = P2

Formula for pressure is; P = ρgh

Thus;

ρ1 × g × h1 = ρ2 × g × h2

g will cancel out to give;

ρ1 × h1 = ρ2× h2

Making h1 the subject, we have;

h1 = (ρ2× h2)/ρ1

h1 = (790 × 0.2)/1260

h1 = 0.125 m

Difference in height will be;

Δh = h2 - h1

Δh = 0.2 - 0.125

Δh = 0.075 m = 7.5 cm

A child on a bridge throws a rock straight down to the water below. The point where the child released the rock is 82 m above th
eimsori [14]

Answer:

40 m/s

Explanation:

given,

height of the fall, h = 82 m

time taken to fall, t = 1.3 s

rock velocity, v = ?

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

rock is released initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

v² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 82

v² = 1607.2

v = 40 m/s

hence, rock's velocity is equal to 40 m/s

otez555 [7]
The discovery which Carnot made was that THE DIFFERENCE IN THE TEMPERATURES BETWEEN THE HOT AND THE COLD RESERVOIRS DETERMINE HOW WELL A HEAT ENGINE WOULD WORK.
Sadi Carnot was a French engineer, He proposed a theoretical thermodynamic cycle in 1824. In his cycle, Said hold that the efficiency of a heat engine depends on the temperature difference between its hot reservoir and cold reservoir.

What are some important factors to consider when choosing a warm-up before your workout?
TEA [102]

<u>Answer:</u>

Prior to exercise, a proper warm-up of 10-15 minutes is extremely important to avoid injuries.

  1. Don't go too hard in the beginning and boost your activity level slowly. A good indication of a proper warm-up is that you feel sweat on your body parts.
  2. Don't overstretch right in the beginning as it can cause sore in your muscles and joints or stress fractures.
  3. Take a break if you feel sick or fatigues and use other drinks along with water to replace electrolytes and body fluids.
