3 0

Answer:

<h2>7.5 kg</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of the train can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{2k}{ {v}^{2} }  \\

k is the kinetic energy

v is the velocity

From the question we have

m =  \frac{2(6000)}{ {40}^{2} }  =  \frac{12000}{1600}  =  \frac{120}{16}  =  \frac{15}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>7.5 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

Suppose a parachutist is falling toward the ground, and the downward force of gravity is exactly equal to the upward force of ai
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Option b. is correct.

Explanation:

In the given question a parachutist is falling toward the ground .

Also, the downward force of gravity is exactly equal to the upward force of air resistance.

So, net force applied to the parachutist is equal to zero ( because both force acts in opposite direction ).

Now by first law of motion  :

An object will be in rest or in constant speed unless and until no external force is applied on it .

So, in the question the velocity of the parachutist is not changing with time.

Therefore, option b. is correct.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A ray of laser light travels through air and enters an unknown material. The laser enters the material at an angle of 36 degrees
V125BC [204]

Answer:1.27

Explanation:

Given

incident angle i=36^{\circ}

refracted angle r=27.5^{\circ}

Suppose n_2 is the refractive index of material then using Snell's law we  can write

n_1\sin i=n_2\sin r

where n_1=refractive index of air

1\times \sin (36)=n_2\times \sin (27.5)

n_2=\dfrac{0.5877}{0.4617}

n_2=1.27

What would happen to a balloon placed in the freezer?
Archy [21]
The balloon will shrink because the average kinetic energy of gas molecules in a balloon decreases with fall in temperature. Butif we warm the balloon , it will rise.
