Your friend, Tim, is playing with his sled. He ties a rope to his sled and attaches it to Lar's snowmobile. Tim has a mass of 71

kg, the tension in the rope is 220 N (horizontally), and a coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.1. Unfortunately, Tim can only hang on for 8 s.
(a) What is Tim's maximum speed?
Physics

The maximum speed of Tim is 16.95 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • Mass of the rope, m = 71 kg
  • Tension on the rope, T = 220 N
  • Coefficient of kinetic friction, = 0.1
  • Time of motion, t = 8 s

<h3>What is Newton's second law of motion?</h3>
  • Newton's second law of motion states that, the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

The net force on Tim is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion as follows;

T - \mu _k F_n = ma\\\\T - \mu _k F_n = m\frac{v}{t} \\\\T - \mu_k mg = m\frac{v}{t} \\\\t(\frac{T - \mu_k mg}{m} )= v\\\\8 (\frac{220 \ -\  0.1 \times 71 \times 9.8}{71} ) =v \\\\ 16.95 \ m/s = v

Thus, the maximum speed of Tim is 16.95 m/s.

6. What are 3 different evidences of evolution? How is each form used to provide evidence of evolution?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Divergent - This type of evolution often occurs when closely related species diversify to new habitats. On a large scale, divergent evolution is responsible for the creation of the current diversity of life on earth from the first living cells. On a smaller scale, it is responsible for the evolution of humans and apes from a common primate ancestor.

Convergent - Convergent evolution causes difficulties in fields of study such as comparative anatomy. Convergent evolution takes place when species of different ancestry begin to share analogous traits because of a shared environment or other selection pressure. For example, whales and fish have some similar characteristics since both had to evolve methods of moving through the same medium: water.

Parallel evolution - Parallel evolution occurs when two species evolve independently of each other, maintaining the same level of similarity. Parallel evolution usually occurs between unrelated species that do not occupy the same or similar niches in a given habitat.

Find the relation, time velocity graph : acceleration of an object, time position graph : ?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

In a time-position graph (s-t graph):

slope = velocity

In a time-velocity graph (v-t graph):

slope = acceleration

area under graph = change in displacement (distance travelled)

In a time-acceleration graph (a-t graph):

area under graph = change in velocity
