A mother (mass 60.0 kg) skates across an ice rink with negligible friction toward her child (mass 20.0 kg), who is standing stil

l on the ice. If the mother moves at 4.0 m/s before she picks up her child, what is her new speed after she picks up her child and holds onto him

We have that the new speed after she picks up her child is mathematically given as

V2=3m/s

<h3>Speed</h3>

The speed of a body is simply the rate at which the body moves or functions, the speed of a body is measured with an SI unit of m/s.

Generally the equation for the  Velocity is mathematically given as

m1v1=m2v2

Therefore

v2=\frac{60*4}{60+20}

V2=3m/s

If the engine receives 6.45 kJ of heat energy from the reservoir at 520 K in each cycle, how many joules per cycle does it rejec
Oxana [17]

Answer:

3.72 kJ

Explanation:

QH = 6.45 kJ

TH = 520 K

Tc = 300 K

Qc = ?

By use of Carnot's theorem

Qc / QH = Tc / TH

Qc / 6.45 = 300 / 520

Qc = 3.72 kJ

Why is the meteor shower is best observed after midnight?​
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

At dawn your location on earth is pointed straight in the direction of the Earth's travel in its orbit.  Between midnight and dawn you are moving head-on through the location of the meteors in space, which means that you will, on average, observe more of them.

The car salesman tells you that the car can go from a stop position to 60 mph in six seconds is giving you the car’s rate of
slava [35]
The salesman is telling you the average magnitude of the car's acceleration.

| Acceleration | = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

| Acceleration | = (60 mi/hr) / (6 sec)

| Acceleration | =  10 miles/hr-sec

That would be 36,000 miles per hour squared,
or 0.0028 mile per second squared.

An electromagnetic wave is traveling straight down toward the center of the Earth. At a certain moment in time the electric fiel
Anika [276]

Answer:

North

Explanation:

In an electromagnetic wave, the direction of the wave, the direction of the electric field and the direction of the magnetic field are all perpendicular to each other.

Therefore, we can  find the direction of the magnetic field by using the right hand rule. We have:

- Index finger: direction of motion of the wave --> toward the center of Earth

- middle finger: direction of the electric field --> west

- thumb: direction of the magnetic field --> north

So, the magnetic field points north.
