Answer:

A quantity that has magnitude and direction. It's usually represented by an arrow whose direction is the same direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude

A 75 kg Spider Man running at 3.0 m/s jumps onto a trash can lid that has a mass of 10kg and that is already moving in the same
QveST [7]
In order to find the final velocity of the skier and the trash can lid, we may apply the principle of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum of a system remains constant. Mathematically, in this case:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₃v₃
Where m₃ and v₃ are the combined mass and velocity.

75*3 + 10*2 = (75 + 10)*v₃
v₃ = 2.88 m/s

The final velocity is 2.88 m/s

The old rubber boot has two leaks. The top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks. What is the velocity of the water coming
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Leak 1 = 3.43 m/s

Leak 2 = 2.42 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks. 

Let height H = 0.3m and the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

From the figure, the angle of the leak 1 will be approximately equal to 45 degrees. While the leak two can be at 90 degrees.

Using the third equation of motion under gravity, we can calculate the velocity of leak 1 and 2

When Jim and Rob ride bicycles, Jim can only accelerate at three-quarters the acceleration of Rob. Both startfrom rest at the bo
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

46.4 s

Explanation:

5 minutes = 60 * 5 = 300 seconds

Let g = 9.8 m/s2. And \theta be the slope of the road, s be the distance of the road, a be the acceleration generated by Rob, 3a/4 is the acceleration generated by Jim .  Both of their motions are subjected to parallel component of the gravitational acceleration gsin\theta

Rob equation of motion can be modeled as s = a_Rt_R^2/2 = a300^2/2 = 45000a[/tex]

Jim equation of motion is s = a_Jt_J^2/2 = (3a/4)t_J^2/2 = 3at_J^2/8

As both of them cover the same distance

45000a = 3at_J^2/8

t_J^2 = 45000*8/3 = 120000

t_J = \sqrt{120000} = 346.4 s

So Jim should start 346.4 – 300 = 46.4 seconds earlier than Rob in other to reach the end at the same time

Sam, whose mass is 75 kg, straps on his skis and starts down a 50-m-high, 20 frictionless slope. A strong headwind exerts a hori
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sam mass=75kg

Height is 50m

20° frictionless slope

Horizontal force on Sam is 200N

According to the work energy theorem, the net work done on Sam will be equal to his change in kinetic energy.

Therefore

Wg - Ww =∆K.E

Note initial the body was at rest at top of the slope.

Then, ∆K.E is K.E(final) - K.E(initial)

K.E Is given as ½mv²

Since initial velocity is zero then, K.E(initial ) is zero

Therefore, ∆K.E=½mVf²

Wg is work done by gravity and it is given by using P.E formulas

Wg=mgh

Wg=75×9.8×50

Wg=36750J

Ww is work done by wind and it's is given by using formulae for work

Work=force × distance

Ww=horizontal force × horizontal distance

Using Trig.

TanX=opposite/adjacent

Tan20=h/x

x=h/tan20

x=50/tan20

x=137.37m

Then,

Ww=F×x

Ww=200×137.37

We=27474J

Now applying the formula

Wg - Ww =∆K.E

36750 - 27474 =½×75×Vf²

9276=37.5Vf²

Vf²=9275/37.5

Vf²= 247.36

Vf=√247.36

Vf=15.73m/s
