Answer:
the ratio of Hank's mass to Harry's mass is 0.7937 or [ 0.7937 : 1
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Hank and Harry are two ice skaters, since both are on top of ice, we assume that friction is negligible.
We know that from Newton's Second Law;
Force = mass × Acceleration
F = ma
Since they hold on to opposite ends of the same rope. They have the same magnitude of force |F|, which is the same as the tension in the rope.
Now,
Mass
× Acceleration = Mass
× Acceleration
so
Mass / Mass = Acceleration / Acceleration
given that; magnitude of Hank's acceleration is 1.26 times greater than the magnitude of Harry's acceleration,
Mass / Mass = 1 / 1.26
Mass / Mass = 0.7937 or [ 0.7937 : 1 ]
Therefore, the ratio of Hank's mass to Harry's mass is 0.7937 or [ 0.7937 : 1 ]
Answer:
Gold is more dense.
Gold sinks faster than lead. That's why gold is found in the bottom of a gold pan or river.
The movements of the tectonic plates
F = 52000 N
m = 1060 kg
a= F/m = 52000 N/1060 kg = 49.0566 m/s^2
Answer: 1339.5 joules
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy, GPE is the energy possessed by the jumper as he moves against gravity.
Thus, GPE = Mass m x Acceleration due to gravity g x Height h
Since Mass = 67kg
g = 9.8m/s^2
h = 2.04 metres
Thus, GPE = 67kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 2.04m
GPE = 1339.5 joules
Thus, the gravitational potential energy at the highest point is 1339.5 joules
