<span>The answer is -0.8 m/s. We know acceleration is the average of final minus initial velocity over time (a = (vf-v0)/t). We also know that Force is equal to Mass times Acceleration (F = ma). Using our force equation, we know that the acceleration we get is negative 8.8 (-8.8). The force is acting in the opposite direction of the rugby player, hence the negative sign. From there, plug in that number for a in the velocity equation, and solve for vf, as v0 and t are known. We get 0.8 m/s in the opposite direction that the player was running.</span>

vredina [299]

Answer:

The angular speed after 6s  is \omega = 1466.67s^{-1}.

Explanation:

The equation

I\alpha  = Fd

relates the moment of inertia I of a rigid body, and its angular acceleration \alpha, with the force applied F at a distance d from the axis of rotation.

In our case, the force applied is F = 22N, at a distance d = 6cm =0.06m, to a ring with the moment of inertia of I =mr^2; therefore, the angular acceleration is

$\alpha =\frac{Fd}{I} $

$\alpha =\frac{22N*0.06m}{(1.5kg)*(0.06)^2} $

\alpha  = 244.44\: s^{-2}

Therefore, the angular speed \omega which is

\omega  = \alpha t

after 6 seconds is

\omega = 244.44$\: s^{-2}* 6s

\boxed{\omega = 1466.67s^{-1}}

A cyclist travels 1850 m north and then 1200 m south. Find both the distance it has traveled and the magnitude of its displaceme
finlep [7]

Answer:

The distance it has traveled is 3,050 m and the magnitude of its displacement is 650 m north.

Explanation:

Distance refers to the length between any two points in space, while displacement refers to the distance from a start position to an end position regardless of the path.

In other words, distance refers to how much space an object travels during its movement; is the quantity moved. It is also said to be the sum of the distances traveled. The distance traveled by a mobile is the length of its trajectory and it is a scalar quantity. In this case, the distance is calculated as:

1850 m + 1200 m= 3,050 m

Displacement refers to the distance and direction of the final position from the initial position of an object. The displacement effected is a vector quantity. The vector representing the displacement has its origin in the initial position, its end in the final position, and its module is the distance in a straight line between the initial and final positions. That is, when expressing the displacement it is done in terms of the magnitude with its respective unit of measurement and the direction because the displacement is a vector type quantity. Mathematically, the displacement (Δd) is calculated as:

Δd= df - di

where df is the final position and di is the initial position of the object.

In this case, the displacement is calculated as:

1850 m - 1200 m= 650 m

Since the distance to the north is greater, the direction of travel will be to the north.

<u><em>The distance it has traveled is 3,050 m and the magnitude of its displacement is 650 m north.</em></u>

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of an empty 2.0 x 101 kg vat made of
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Q = 7272 Kilojoules.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 2.0*101kg = 202kg

Initial temperature, T1 = 10°C

Final temperature, T2 = 90°C

We know that the specific heat capacity of iron = 450J/kg°C

*To find the quantity of heat*

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

  • Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
  • m represents the mass of an object.
  • c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
  • dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 90 - 10

dt = 80°C

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

Q = 202*450*80

Q = 7272KJ or 7272000 Joules.

kari74 [83]

When the canoe leaked, the boat sank because it has a leak. The boat must have a strong base at its bottom to enable itself to float. If this is damaged, the water can now enter due to the hole thereby increasing the velocity of water coming in.

Define accleration due to gravity​
kaheart [24]
Therefore as you move around the U.S. the acceleration due to gravity (g) varies from about 9.79 to 9.81 meters per second squared. The Earth’s average is 9.80 m/s2 which is generally reported as the acceleration of gravity on Earth.
