Explanation:

pressure=density of water × gravity ×height

=1000×9.8×20=196,000N/m^2

=196000/1000=196kpa which is almost 200kpa

Density of gold = 19300 kg/m^3
1 kg mass = 2.2 pounds
Mass of 10 cm^3 of gold = 0<span>.00001 m^3 * (19300 kg/m^3)
                                        = 0.193 kg 
So
0.193 kg = 0.193 * 2.2 pounds
               = 0.43 pounds
I think there is something wrong with the options given in the question.</span>

A 90 kg ice skater moving at 12.0 m/s on the ice encounters a region of roughed up ice with a coefficient of kinetic friction of
balandron [24]

Answer:

The skater covers a distance of <u>15 m</u> before stopping.

Explanation:

Let the distance traveled before stopping be 'd' m.

Given:

Mass of the skater (m) = 90 kg

Initial velocity of the skater (u) = 12.0 m/s

Final velocity of the skater (v) = 0 m/s (Stops finally)

Coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) = 0.490

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Now, we know that, from work-energy theorem, the work done by the net force on a body is equal to the change in its kinetic energy.

Here, the net force acting on the skater is only frictional force which acts in the direction opposite to motion.

Frictional force is given as:

f=\mu N

Where, 'N' is the normal force acting on the skater. As there is no vertical motion, N=mg

∴ f=\mu mg=0.490\times 90\times 9.8=432.18\ N

Now, work done by friction is a negative work as friction and displacement are in opposite direction and is given as:

W=-fd=-432.18d

Now, change in kinetic energy is given as:

\Delta K=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\\\Delta K=\frac{1}{2}\times 90(0-12^2)\\\\\Delta K=45\times (-144)=-6480\ J

Therefore, from work-energy theorem,

W=\Delta K\\\\-432.18d=6480\\\\d=\frac{6480}{432.18}\\\\d=14.99\approx 15\ m

Hence, the skater covers a distance of 15 m before stopping.

A vector has an x component of -27.5 units and a y component of 41.4 units. Find the magnitude and direction of this vector. mag
evablogger [386]

Answer:

a.) magnitude __49.7__ unit(s)

b.) direction __123.6°_  counterclockwise from the +x axis

Explanation:

Let Vector is v

x-component of Vector v = x = -27.5 units   (minus sign indicate that x-component is along the minus x-axis )

y-component of Vector v = y = 41.4 units

Magnitude of v = ?

Direction of v = ?

To find the magnitude of the vector

                                     v =\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}  }  

                                     v = \sqrt{-27.5^{2}+41.4^{2} }

                                     v = 49.7 units  

To find direction

                                 θ = tan⁻¹(y/x)

                                 θ = tan⁻¹(41.4/-27.5)

                                 θ = -56.4°

This Angle is in the clockwise direction with respect to -x axis.

We need to find Angle counterclockwise from the +x axis.

So,

                                 θ = 180° - 56.4°

                                 θ = 123.6°                

The given vector is in 2nd quadrant

Use free fall in a sentance
Softa [21]
Free fall means rapid fall or a downward motion due to gravity. Sentence example: When Joe was accidentally bumped by Sarah, he was sent towards a free fall down the escalator, leading to a serious injury on his arm and two legs.
