A 748-N man stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius 4.0 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of a lack of fr

Ber [7]

Answer:

The man will take 64 seconds to reach to the south shore of the frozen pond.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight of the man = 748 N Mass of the man, $(m)= \frac{W}{g}$ = $\frac{748}{9.8}$ = $76.32$ kg

Radius of the pond $(r)$ = 4 m

Mass of the textbook = 1.2 kg

Velocity at which the textbook is thrown = 4 ms^1

We have to find the velocity of the man after the throw.

Let the velocity is $V_m$ .

Now using law of conservation of momentum we can find the $V_m$ value.

$m_(_b_)V_b_(_i_) +m_(_m_)V_m_(_i_) =m_(_b_)V_b_(_f_)+m_(_m_) V_m_(_f_)$

Considering $V_m_(_f_)=V_m$

And initial velocity of both the man and book i.e $V_b_(_i_)=0,\ V_m_(i_)=0$

So,

⇒ $0 =m_(_b_)V_b_(_f_)+m_(_m_) V_m$

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ $V_m=-\frac{m_(_b_)V_b_(_f_)}{m_(_m_)}$

⇒ $V_m=-\frac{1.2\times 4}{76.32}$

⇒ $V_m=-0.062$ ms^-1

Here the negative velocity is meant for opposite direction of the throw.

Numerically we will write, $V_m = 0.062$

With this velocity the man will move towards south.

We have to calculate the time taken by the man to move to its south shore.

And we know $velocity(v)\times time(t) = distance(d)$

Let the time taken be $t$ and $v\times t = d$ and $d=r$ then, $V_m\times t=r$

Then

⇒ $t=\frac{radius\ (r)}{V_m}$

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ $t=\frac{4}{0.062}$

⇒ $t =64$ sec

The man will take 64 seconds to reach to the south shore of the frozen pond (circular).

A box contains 12 balls of which 5 are red, and 7 are blue. If 4 balls are drawn from the box, in how many ways can this be done

mash [69]

Answer:

175 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

5 balls are red, and 7 balls are blue making a total of 12 balls.

4 balls are drawn from the box,

1 ball is red and 3 balls are blue out of the 4 drawn from the box.

We have to choose 1 ball from 5 red balls and 3 blue balls from 7 blue balls.

Since the order is not essential we use combinations to find out

5C1 * 7C3= 5*35 = 175 ways

Each time Kristine gets paid, she spends $20 and saves the rest. If the amount Kristine earns is represented by x and the amount

faust18 [17]

We are given that Kristine spends $20 and saves the rest each time she get paid.

We can use slope-intercept form y=mx+b to represent the equation.

Where x represents the amount Kristine earns and y represents the amount she saves.

Kristine spends $20. Therefore b= -20.

Plugging mx as just x and b=-20.

<h3>y = x-20.</h3><h3>If we plug y=0, we get </h3><h3>0 = x-20</h3><h3>x=20.</h3><h3>We can see in 4th option we have x-intercept =20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 4th option. </h3><h3 />

Find the equation of the line passing through the points (3,-2) and (4,6) in slope intercept form.

noname [10]

Hey!

------------------------------------------------

They already give us the slope, so we can solve the y-intercept.

We can use (3, -2).

y = 8x + b

-2 = 8(3) + b

-2 = 24 + b

-2 - 24 = 24 + b - 24

-26 = b

------------------------------------------------

Hence, the answer is $\Large\boxed{\mathsf{y~=~8x~+~-26}}$

------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
