This is a problem of conservation of momentum
Momentum before throwing the rock: m*V = 96.0 kg * 0.480 m/s = 46.08 N*s
A) man throws the rock forward
=>
rock:
m1 = 0.310 kg
V1 = 14.5 m/s, in the same direction of the sled with the man
sled and man:
m2 = 96 kg - 0.310 kg = 95.69 kg
v2 = ?
Conservation of momentum:
momentum before throw = momentum after throw
46.08N*s = 0.310kg*14.5m/s + 95.69kg*v2
=> v2 = [46.08 N*s - 0.310*14.5N*s ] / 95.69 kg = 0.434 m/s
B) man throws the rock backward
this changes the sign of the velocity, v2 = -14.5 m/s
46.08N*s = - 0.310kg*14.5m/s + 95.69kg*v2
v2 = [46.08 N*s + 0.310*14.5 N*s] / 95.69 k = 0.529 m/s
Answer:
10.19 m
Explanation:
Water will rise to equalize the pressure inside and outside the tube.
The equation of pressure is given by
Where,
p = Pressure of air = 10⁵ N/m²
ρ = Density of water = 10³ kg/m³
g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
h = Height the water will rise
∴ The water will rise by 10.19 m.
Answer:
Explanation:
Expression for velocity of wave produced in a hanging wire can be given as follows
Velocity v = 
where T is tension in wire and m is mass of wire per unit length.
In the given case
T = Mg + mg
= Mg
neglecting weight of rope
mass of the rope per unit length
= m / L
Velocity of wave
= 
= 
Answer:
It is a measure of the electric force per unit charge on a test charge.
Explanation:
The magnitude of the electric field is defined as the force per charge on the test charge.
Since we define electric field as the force per charge, it will have the units of force divided by the unit of charge. This implies that the SI unit of electric field is given as Newton/Coulomb (N/C).
Answer:
Cheetah cubs are in danger from predators like lions and hyenas which can track their prey by scent and so the mother and her cubs leave an area when their scent is too strong so that they are not hunted and the cubs survive.
Mother Cheetahs also train their cubs to hunt so that they may get food for themselves which will ensure their survival as well thus showing that both of these practices can impact on reproductive success.
