Blake stands in a canoe in the middle of a lake. The canoe is stationary. Blake holds an anchor mass of 15 kg, then throws it we

st with a speed of 8 m/s. Blake and the canoe have a combined mass of 135 kg.
a. the system is defined as Blake, the canoe, and the anchor. What is the total momentum of the system before he throws the anchor?
b. what is the total momentum of the system after he throws the anchor?
c. what is the velocity of the canoe after he throws the anchor?

The velocity of the canoe is  1.7 m/s.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum in physics is the products of mass and velocity. Now we have to find momentum with the formula; p = mv

a) Initial momentum = (15)8 m/s + 135 = 255 Kgms-1

b) Since momentum is conserved, the total momentum after throwing the anchor is still 255 Kgms-1

c) The final velocity of the boat is obtained from;

255 Kgms-1 = (15Kg + 135 Kg) v

v = 255 Kgms-1/(15Kg + 135 Kg)

v = 1.7 m/s

Do you think most people follow the recommended guidelines for an adequate exercise routine?
blondinia [14]

Personally, I know that I don't however it all depends on the person's lifestyle, health, and resoucres, such as if they are able to complete the excersise or have enough money fore equpemnt. To be safe, I would say that the majority of people do follow the guidelines although they may manipulate it to fit their best interest.

A light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.35 m/s. D A 33% Part (a) How long does it take to reach its top speed of
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

a) 17.49 seconds

b) 13.12 seconds

c) 2.99 m/s²

Explanation:

a) Acceleration = a = 1.35 m/s²

Final velocity = v = 85 km/h = 85\frac{1000}{3600}=23.61\ m/s

Initial velocity = u = 0

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 23.61=0+1.35t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{23.61}{1.35}=17.49\ s

Time taken to accelerate to top speed is 17.49 seconds.

b) Acceleration = a = -1.8 m/s²

Initial velocity = u = 23.61\ m/s

Final velocity = v = 0

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=23.61-1.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{23.61}{1.8}=13.12\ s

Time taken to stop the train from top speed is 13.12 seconds

c) Initial velocity = u = 23.61 m/s

Time taken = t = 7.9 s

Final velocity = v = 0

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=23.61+a7.9\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{-23.61}{7.9}=-2.99\ m/s^2

Emergency acceleration is 2.99 m/s² (magnitude)

Options are:<br>a)4Cn<br>b)5Cn<br>c)6 Cn<br>d)3 Cn<br>​
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Option B. 5 nC

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Capicitance (C) = 100 pF

Potential difference (V) = 50 V

Quantity of charge (Q) =?

Next, we shall convert 100 pF to Farad (F). This can be obtained as follow:

1 pF = 1×10¯¹² F

Therefore,

100 pF = 100 pF × 1×10¯¹² F / 1 pF

100 pF = 1×10¯¹⁰ F

Next, we shall determine the quantity of charge. This can be obtained as follow:

Capicitance (C) = 1×10¯¹⁰ F

Potential difference (V) = 50 V

Quantity of charge (Q) =?

Q = CV

Q = 1×10¯¹⁰ × 50

Q = 5×10¯⁹ C

Finally, we shall convert 5×10¯⁹ C to nano coulomb (nC). This can be obtained as follow:

1 C = 1×10⁹ nC

Therefore,

5×10¯⁹ C = 5×10¯⁹ C × 1×10⁹ nC / 1 C

5×10¯⁹ C = 5 nC

Thus, the quantity of charge is 5 nC
