Answer:

The correct answer is - C) the RICE formula.

Explanation:

The first aid for a patient with a sprain or strain mainly includes the RICE formula which stands for the rest, ice, compression, and elevation. In case of a sprain or strain, one is advised to rest, use ice on the location of the sprain, compression on the part of the sprain, and elevate the body part for less pain, less swelling or reducing chances of making it worst.

The other three formulas given are used in different conditions. The FITT formula used in the exercise planning, and the ABC formula used for the first aid of the heart attack or blockage of the airway.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

From the figure attached,

Horizontal component, $A_x=A\text{Sin}37$

$A_x=12[\text{Sin}(37)]$

= 7.22 m

Vertical component, $A_y=A[\text{Cos}(37)]$

= 9.58 m

Similarly, Horizontal component of vector C,

$C_x$ = C[Cos(60)]

= 6[Cos(60)]

= $\frac{6}{2}$

= 3 m

$C_y=6[\text{Sin}(60)]$

= 5.20 m

Resultant Horizontal component of the vectors A + C,

$R_x=7.22-3=4.22$ m

$R_y=9.58-5.20$ = 4.38 m

Now magnitude of the resultant will be,

From ΔOBC,

$R=\sqrt{(R_x)^{2}+(R_y)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(4.22)^2+(4.38)^2}$

= $\sqrt{17.81+19.18}$

= 6.1 m

Direction of the resultant will be towards vector A.

tan(∠COB) = $\frac{\text{CB}}{\text{OB}}$

= $\frac{R_y}{R_x}$

= $\frac{4.38}{4.22}$

m∠COB = $\text{tan}^{-1}(1.04)$

= 46°

Therefore, magnitude of the resultant vector will be 6.1 m and direction will be 46°.

Option (2) will be the answer.

A deuteron consists of one proton and one neutron. A deuteron moving horizontally enters a uniform, vertical magnetic field of 0

Helen [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the velocity of deuteron be v then force on it in magnetic field

Bqv , B is magnetic field and q is charge on deuteron . This force will provide centripetal force for circular path so

mv² / r = Bqv m is mass of deuteron and r is radius of circular path

v = Bqr / m

(.5 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 55.6 x 10⁻² )/ 3.34 x 10⁻²⁷

= 13.31 x 10⁶ m /s

A 5-kg ball collides inelastically head-on with a 10-kg ball, which is initially stationary. Which of the following statements i

NARA [144]

Answer:

The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball.

Explanation:

In inelastic collision, the total momentum is always conserved after collision but the kinetic energy is reduced.

Momentum is Mass X velocity.

5 kg ball is in motion, while 10 kg ball is stationary; that is zero velocity.

The momentum of 10 kg ball before collision is zero while the momentum of 5 kg ball before collision is more than zero. Therefore, the magnitude of change in momentum will not be equal.

Next possible options are in kinetic Energy

Initial Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2}mu^2$

Final kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Change in kinetic energy = Final Kinetic Energy - Initial Kinetic Energy

Change in kinetic energy of 5kg ball = $\frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-u)^2$

Since the 5-kg ball has initial velocity (u), the magnitude of the change in velocity will be reduced.

Change in kinetic energy of 10kg ball:

the ball is initially at rest, therefore the initial velocity (u) will be zero (0)

Δ K.E = $\frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-u)^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-0)^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

From the solution above, the magnitude of the change in velocity experienced by 10 kg ball is higher than 5 kg ball.

Hence, The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball
