Erica (38 kg ) and danny (43 kg ) are bouncing on a trampoline. just as erica reaches the high point of her bounce, danny is mov
AfilCa [17]
<span>2.5 m/s going upward.
   In the situation described, Erica and Danny undergo a non-elastic collision which will conserve their combined momentum. Since Erica is stationary, her momentum is 0. And since Danny is moving upward at 4.7 m/s his momentum is 43 kg * 4.7 m/s = 202.1 kg*m/s. Assuming that both Erica and Danny will be moving as a joined system, their combined mass is 38 kg + 43 kg = 81 kg. Since the momentum will be the same, their velocity will be 202.1 kg*m/s / 81 kg = 2.495061728 m/s. Since we only have 2 significant figures in the provided data, rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives a velocity of 2.5 m/s going upward.</span>

How does upwelling affect the weather of a coastal region?
SIZIF [17.4K]

c.The warm surface water results in moist air and more rainfall.

Explanation:

  • During upwelling, cold water in the ocean is stirred up and brought to the surface.
  • The warmer surface water is then taken into deeper parts of the ocean.
  • Upwelling allows for nutrient mixing in the ocean and allows for useful gases to circulate well.
  • The warm surface water causes the air to be moisty.
  • When the air is carried landward towards the coast, it leads to rainfall when the saturated air releases the water.
  • The air then becomes cold and dry and it rises up.
  • Therefore, warm surface water results in moist air and more rainfall.

Calculate the centripetal force acting on a 925 kg car as it rounds an unbanked curve with a radius of 75 m at a speed of 22 m/s
igomit [66]
Since f=m(v^2/r),or fnet is equal to ma.

force = unknown
velocity=22m/s
radius=75m


f=m(v^2/r)
f=925(22^2/75)
f=5969.333N
