A 62.0 kg water skier at rest jumps from the dock into a 775 kg boat at rest on the east side of the dock. If the velocity of th

e skier is 4.50 m/s as she leaves the dock, what is the final velocity of the skier and boat?

Answer:

v = 0.33 m/s

Explanation:

The final velocity of the skier and boat can be calculated by conservation of the lineal momentum:

m_{1}v_{1i} + m_{2}v_{2i} = m_{1}v_{1f} + m_{2}v_{2f}

<u>Where:</u>

m1: is the mass of the water skier = 62.0 kg

m2: is the mass of the boat = 775 kg

v1i: is the initial velocity of the water skier = 4.50 m/s    

v1f: is the final velocity of the water skier = ?

v2i: is the initial velocity of the boat = 0

v2f: is the final velocity of the boat = ?

Since the final velocity of the skier is the same that the final velocity of the boat, we have:      

m_{1}v_{1i} + m_{2}v_{2i} = m_{1}v_{f} + m_{2}v_{f}  

m_{1}v_{1i} + 0 = v_{f}(m_{1} + m_{2})  

v_{f} = \frac{62.0 kg*4.50 m/s}{(62.0 kg + 775 kg)}  

v_{f} = 0.33 m/s  

Therefore, the final velocity of the skier and boat is 0.33 m/s.

I hope it helps you!

Find the electric energy density between the plates of a 225-μF parallel-plate capacitor. The potential difference between the p
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Energy density will be 14.73 J/m^3

Explanation:

We have given capacitance C=225\mu F=225\times 10^{-6}F

Potential difference between the plates = 365 V

Plate separation d = 0.200 mm 0.2\times 10^{-3}m

We know that there is relation between electric field and potential

E=\frac{V}{d}, here E is electric field, V is potential and d is separation between the plates

So E=\frac{V}{d}=\frac{365}{0.2\times 10^{-3}}=1825000N/C

Energy density is given by E=\frac{1}{2}\varepsilon _0E^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times (1.825\times 10^6)^2=14.73J/m^3

aleksley [76]
F should be 10. If The Whole top is 50cm, then we should subtract 10n and 30n which gives us 10.

Or it could be 15 if both top and bottom are 25. 10+15= 25.
