Answer:

The pressure exerted by camel feet is <u>2000 N/m²</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Solution</u> :</h3>

Here, we have given that ;

Force applied on camel feet = 4000 N
Total area of camel feet = 2 m²

We need to find the pressure exerted by camel feet.

As we know that :

${\longrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{Pressure= \dfrac{Area}{Force}}}}}$

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find the pressure exerted by camel feet.

$\begin{gathered} \begin{array}{l} {\longrightarrow{\sf{Pressure= \dfrac{Area}{Force}}}} \\ \\ {\longrightarrow{\sf{Pressure= \dfrac{4000}{2}}}} \\ \\ {\longrightarrow{\sf{Pressure= \cancel{\dfrac{4000}{2}}}}} \\ \\ {\longrightarrow{\sf{Pressure= 2000 \: N/{m}^{2}}}} \\ \\\star \: \small\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{Pressure= 2000 \: N/{m}^{2}}}}} \end{array}\end{gathered}$

Hence, the pressure exerted by camel feet is 2000 N/m².

Answer:

1. 3 $m/s^{2}$

2. 1.5 $m/s^{2}$

3. 3 seconds

4. 0 $m/s^{2}$

5. 2.2 seconds

Explanation:

(1)

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making a the subject we have

$a=\frac {v-u}{t}$

Substituting u=0 since it’s at rest, v=30m/s and t=10 seconds

a = $\frac {30-0}{10}=3 m/s^{2}$

(2)

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making a the subject we have

$a=\frac {v-u}{t}$

Substituting u=10m/s, v=22m/s and t=8 seconds

a = $\frac {22-10}{8}=1.5 m/s^{2}$

(3)

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making t the subject we have

$t=\frac {v-u}{a}$

Substituting u=0m/s since at rest, v=15m/s and a=5 $\frac {m}{s^{2}}$

= $\frac {15-0}{5}=3s$

(4)

When initial and final velocity are constant, there’s no acceleration as proven below

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making a the subject we have

$a=\frac {v-u}{t}$

Substituting u=20 since it’s at rest, v=20m/s and t=10 seconds

a = $\frac {20-20}{10}=0 m/s^{2}$

(5)

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making t the subject we have

$t=\frac {v-u}{a}$

Substituting u=9m/s since at rest, v=0m/s and a=-4.1 $\frac {m}{s^{2}}$

= $\frac {0-9}{-4.1}=2.2s$

Based on the free-body diagram, the net force acting<br> on this firework is

Strike441 [17]

0N. The net force acting on this firework is 0.

The key to solve this problem is using the net force formula based on the diagram shown in the image. Fnet = F1 + F2.....Fn.

Based on the free-body diagram, we have:

The force of gases is Fgases = 9,452N

The force of the rocket Frocket = -9452

Then, the net force acting is:

Fnet = Fgases + Frocket

Fnet = 9,452N - 9,452N = 0N

A battery is the power source for what type of current

patriot [66]

Answer: DC Current

Explanation:

Battery is a source of constant potential difference and it will create a constant voltage across any conductor

due to this constant voltage difference the current in this conductor will remain constant

So here since the voltage across the conductor is constant so we can say that current in the conductor will remain constant and hence this is known as DC current.

While for variable current in direction and magnitude is to be obtained only when the conductor is connected with AC voltage source as we know that AC voltage is variable with magnitude and direction both

A battery is the power source for DC type of current. A battery is a source of constant potential difference that produces a constant current unlike in AC source where the voltage and hence the current changes its polarity continuously.Hence, the current produced by battery is direct current and not Alternating current.

Hope this helps........ Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!! :D
