Answer:
Explanation:
As we know that there is no wind resistance on the skydiver
so when he jumps out of the helicopter then in that case the net force on the diver will be due to gravity only
so his equation for force is given by
now from the Newton's law of motion we will have
from the given options we will have
so the acceleration is
b. What speed must the student leave the ground with to reach that height?
The hang time of the student is 0.64 seconds, and he must leave the ground with a speed of 3.13 m/s
Why?
To solve the problem, we must consider the vertical height reached by the student as max height.
We can use the following equations to solve the problem:
Initial speed calculations:
At max height, the speed tends to zero.
So, calculating, we have:
Hang time calculations:
We must remember that the total hang time is equal to the time going up plus the time going down, and both of them are equal,so, calculating the time going down, we have have:
Then, for the total hang time, we have:
Have a nice day!
Answer:
496.7 K
Explanation:
The efficiency of a Carnot engine is given by the equation:
where:
is the temperature of the hot reservoir
is the temperature of the cold reservoir
For the engine in the problem, we know that
is the efficiency
is the temperature of the cold reservoir
Solving for , we find:
Formula: °F = (9/5) (°C) + 32 °C is given so I am solving for °F.
°F = (9/5) (25) + 32
=(1.8*25)+ 32
=45+32
=77
Answer= 77°F is equal to 25°C
A. Convert 35°C to °F
B. Convert 80°F to °C
C. Convert 15°C to °F
D. Convert 25°F to °C
Answer:
12 m/s
Explanation:
Speed can be found using the following formula.
where s is speed, d is distance traveled and t is the time.
We know that Cynthia sprinted 60 meters in 5 seconds. Therefore, the distance is 60 meters and the time is 5 seconds.
d=60
t=5
Substitute these values into the formula.
Divide
Add appropriate units. For this problem, the appropriate units would be meters per second, or m/s.
Cynthia's speed is 12 meters per second.
The correct answer is C. Velocity is a vector and requires a direction.
Explanation:
In physics both speed and velocity are used to study the motion of a body; however, they are slightly different. In the case of speed, this describes the rate of change in position based on distance and time, because of this, speed is based on a magnitude or quantity. On the other hand, velocity is a vector because it does not only includes a change of position but the direction of motion usually based on a specific location reference.
Considering this, it can be concluded the difference between speed and velocity is that "velocity is a vector and requires a direction" because velocity includes both the distance and time (speed) along with the direction while speed focuses only on time and distance.
The difference between speed and velocity is that C) velocity is a vector and requires a direction
Vector is a quantity that has a value and direction
Vector can be symbolized in the form of directed line segments
while the length of the vector is denoted by | a |
Vectors can be written in the form of sequential pairs which shows their coordinates in the Cartesian plane: a (a₁, a₂)
with length
If the direction of the vector is reversed, we get the vector -a which has the same length but in the opposite direction
Operations on vectors include addition and subtraction. Addition of vector a and vector b can be done in a triangular way where the base point of vector b coincides with the endpoint of vector a
The sum of the two is obtained by pulling the line segment from the base point of the vector a to the endpoint of the vector b which results in a new vector c
So a + b = c
If vector a is added by inverse b (-b) then the sum becomes a + (- b) = a-b
If a vector is multiplied by a scalar number (eg denoted by k) then the new vector becomes k | a |.
If k> 0, the new vector is in the direction of vector a, but if k <0 it will be in the opposite direction
A vector has a direction and a magnitude, while a scalar has only a magnitude.
Examples of scalars are: length, mass, time, speed
Examples of vectors are: force, acceleration, velocity
the average velocity
resultant velocity
the coin velocity
