Which term describes speed in a certain direction?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

A. Velocity

Explanation:

Velocity is vector quantity thus has both magnitude and direction. It describes not only the speed but also the direction. Speed is scalar quantity so describes only speed but not direction. Energy has nothing to do with speed, acceleration describes change in velocity in a direction over time

A 47-kg packing crate is pulled with constant speed across a rough floor with a rope that is at an angle of 37 degrees above the
levacccp [35]

Tension in the rope due to applied force will be given as

F = 142 N

angle of applied force with horizontal is 37 degree

displacement along the floor = 6.1 m

so here we can use the formula of work done

W = F d cos\theta

now we can plug in all values above

W = 142 * 6.1 * cos37

W = 691.8 J

So here work done to pull is given by 691.8 J

How to find the coefficient of kinetic friction?
ycow [4]
It depends on the type of question, mechanical condition and given values, 
You can use the formula, 

Coefficient of kinetic friction  =  Force of Kinetic friction  /  Normal force (perpendicular to contacting surfaces)

Hope this helps!

Why does it hurt more when you fall on concrete than on grass?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Smaller forces are easier on your legs and you prefer to land on soft grass. Momentum/impulse explanation: Whether you land on concrete or soft grass, your change in momentum will be identical. A hard surface that brings you to a stop in 0.01 s requires a much larger force of 15,000 N.

after one hour, 1/16 of the initial amount of certain radioactive isotope remains undecayed. the half life of the isotope is:
Anarel [89]
(1/2)^x=1/16
ln 1/2^x=x ln 1/2=ln 1/16
x=4
4 half-lives in one hour=1/4 hour for the half-life of the isotope
