Catching a wave, a 77 kg surfer starts with a speed of 1.3 m/s, drops through a height of 1.65 m, and ends with a speed of 8.2 m

/s. How much non-conservative work was done on the surfer?

Ronch [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

The total work done by the wave is expressed as;

Workdone = Potential energy + Kinetic energy

Workdone = mgh + 1/2mv²

m is the mass = 77kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

v is the velocity = 8.2m/s

h is the height = 1.65m

Substitute into the formula;

Workdone = 77(9.8)(1.65) + 1/2(77)8.2²

Workdone = 1245.09 + 2588.74

Workdone = 3833.83Joules

Hence the amount of non conservative work done on the sofa is 3833.83Joules

What happens to the force between two charges when each charge is doubled and the distance between them is 1/4 its original
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

F' = 64 F

Explanation:

The electric force between charges is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Where

q₁ and q₂ are charges

r is the distance between charges

When  each charge is doubled and the distance between them is 1/4 its original magnitude such that,

q₁' = 2q₁, q₂' = 2q₂ and r' = (r/4)

New force,

F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r'^2}

Apply new values,

F'=\dfrac{k\times 2q_1\times 2q_2}{(\dfrac{r}{4})^2}\\\\=\dfrac{k\times 4q_1q_2}{\dfrac{r^2}{16}}\\\\=64\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\=64F

So, the new force becomes 64 times the initial force.

What does the left y-axis show?
vivado [14]

Answer:

The correct option is;

a- sea surface temperature anomaly, in degrees Celsius

Explanation:

From the diagram related to the question we have two graphs super imposed of Sea surface temperature anomaly, in degrees Celsius and cholera incidence anomaly (%) both plotted against time in years.

On the left the y-axis represents the sea surface temperature anomaly while on the right, the y-axis represents the cholera incidence anomaly (%).

The display of the graph shows the sea surface temperature anomaly in blue.
