ddd [48]

Long straight distance that a person can swim is 5.64 m.

<h3>What is the Long straight distance?</h3>

The line that runs form one end of the circle to another is called the diameter of the circle. The pool is a circle according to the question and the long straight distance that a person can swim is the same of the diameter of the circular pool.

Now we have;

A =  πr^2

A = area of pool

r  = radius of pool

r = √A/ π

r = √25/3.142

r = 2.82m

Diameter of the circular pool = 2 r = 2 (2.82 cm) = 5.64 m

Missing parts;

An ad for an above-ground pool states that it is 25 m2. From the ad, you can tell that the pool is a circle. If you swim from one point at the edge of the pool to another, along a straight line, what is the longest distance d you can swim? Express your answer in three significant figures.

While on a moving elevator during a certain perfod or time, Frank's apparent weight is 620 N. If Frank's mass is 70 kg, what is
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

0.94 m/s^2 downwards

Explanation:

m = 70 kg, m g = 70 x 9.8 = 686 N

R = 620 N

Let the acceleration be a, as the apparent weight decreases so the elevator is moving downwards with an acceleration a.

mg - R = ma

686 - 620 = 70 x a

a = 0.94 m/s^2

A 100 V battery is connected across a
Sergio039 [100]

1 mA = 0.001 A

Therefore, 5 mA = 0.001 * 5

=0.005 A

Resistance = voltage / current

= 100 / 0.005

= 20000 ohms

Current = voltage / resistance

= 25 / 20000

= 0.00125 A (or) 1.25 mA

A dog, with a mass of 10.0 kg, is standing on a flatboat so that he is 22.5 m from the shore. He walks 7.8 m on the boat toward
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:16.096

Explanation:

Given

mass of dog\left ( m_d\right )=10kg

mass of boat\left ( m_b\right )=46kg

distance moved by dog relative to ground=x_d

distance moved by boat relative to ground=x_b

Distance moved by dog relative to boat=7.8m

There no net force on the system therefore centre of mass of system remains at its position

0=m_d\times x_d+m_b\dot x_b

0=10\times x_d+46\dot x_b

x_d=-4.6x_b

i.e. boat will move opposite to the direction of dog

Now

|x_d|+|x_b|=7.8

substitutingx_dvalue

5.6|x_b|=7.8

|x_b|=1.392m

|x_d|=6.4032m

now the dog is  22.5-6.403=16.096m from shore

Now the proton at B is removed and replaced by a lithium nucleus, containing three protons and four neutrons. The proton at loca
Digiron [165]

Answer:

         F = 3 fo

Explanation:

The electric force is given by Coulomb's law

         F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

where k is the Coulomb constant and is equal to 8.99 109  

with the initial charge the force is  

        Fo = k q₁ q₂ / r²  

        Fo =k q₁ q₂ / r²

In this case it is indicated that charge 1 is changed by the lithium atom a = 3 P  

we substitute  

        F = k 3p p / r²      

        F = 3 (k p² / r²)  

        F = 3 fo

 

we see that the charge increases by three orders of magnitude
