A woman skis from rest down a hill 20 m high. If friction is negligible, what is her speed at the bottom of the slope? Select one: O a. 20 m/s O b. 12 m/s O c. 400 m/s O d. 6 m/s​

Answers

Answer 1

Hi there!

We can use the work-energy theorem to solve.

Recall:

[tex]\large\boxed{E_i = E_f}}[/tex]

Initial energy = final energy

The initial energy is purely potential (she starts from rest), and, if we assign the bottom of the slope as the 0 line, her energy at the bottom is purely kinetic.

PE = mgh

KE = 1/2mv²

We can begin by setting the two equal:

mgh = 1/2mv²

Cancel out the mass and rearrange to solve for velocity:

2gh = v²

v = √2gh

Plug in given values and use g ≈ 10 m/s²:

v = √2(10)(20) = 20 m/s

Predict changes in state according to change in particle motion. Know the vocabulary used to describe changes of state.

Answers

The change in the state of matter causes change in the motion of the particles of the matter. The gaseous state of matter has the greatest speed while the solid state has the least speed.

The change in state of every matter is accompanied by lost or gained of energy.

Example is water.

The solid state of water is ice. The motion of particles of the water is relatively zero because the molecules are held at a fixed position.

The liquid state of water occurs when the temperature of the ice is increased above zero degree Celsius. The speed of the particles of water in liquid state is greater than solid state.

The gaseous state of water occurs when the temperature of the liquid water is increased beyond 100 degree Celsius. The speed of water in gaseous state is greater than liquid state.

Explanation:

Visual constancy is a key mechanism that allows the perception to remain.the same even as images change

#CARRYONLEARNING

Visual constancy is  important because it allows perceptions to remain the same even as images change.

What is  Constancy phenomenon?

Constancy phenomenon describes how people and animals tend to perceive familiar objects as having a constant shape, size, colour, or location regardless of adjustments to distance, illumination, or perspective. Instead of responding to the real stimulus, the impression has a tendency to adapt to the object as it is or is imagined to be.

The ability to recognise things in a variety of situations, which appear to be "taken into account" throughout a process of mental rebuilding of the known image, is a result of perceptual constancy. For instance, snow appears white in both the dim moonlight and the 800,000-fold brighter day. Reduced contextual cues that help with object identification and limited experience with the object both affect perceptual constancy.

A particle starts from the origin at t = 0 with a velocity of 6.0 m/s and moves in the xy plane with a constant acceleration of (-2.0 + 4.0) m/s2. At the instant the particle achieves its maximum positive x coordinate, how far is it from the origin

Answers

Answer:

9sqrt4

Explanation:

Assuming you mean 6.0i m/s and (-2.0i + 4.0j) m/s^2:

The maximum positive x coordinate is when the time is 3 seconds, because the horizontal velocity will be zero, and therefore will be a turning point, where after that point the x coordinate will only be more negative.

After 3 seconds the x coordinate is 6*3+1/2*-2*3^2=9, and the y coordinate will be 1/2*4*3^2=18.

The distance from the origin is sqrt(9^2+18^2) = 9*sqrt(1+4)

At the instant the particle achieves its maximum positive x coordinate, the displacement is 4.03 m.

Displacement of the particle

The displacement of the particle is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2as

where;

a is acceleration

a = √(2² + 4²) = 4.47 m/s²

0 = u² + 2as

s = -u²/2a

s = -(6²)/(2 x 4.47)

s = -4.03 m

At liftoff, the space shuttle Discovery has a constant acceleration of 16.4 ft/s/s with an initial velocity of 1,341 ft/s due to the rotation of the Earth. How long does it take to travel 100,000 ft?

Answers

From orbital speed formula which is the ratio of the circumference of the earth and the period of time, it will take 6097.6 seconds to travel 100,000 ft

Given that the space shuttle Discovery has a constant acceleration of 16.4 ft/s with an initial velocity of 1,341 ft/s due to the rotation of the Earth.

The period of time T it will require to travel round the a distance 100,000 ft can be calculated by using the formula below.

V = 2πr / T

Where 2πr = 100,000 ft

V = 16.4 ft/s

Substitute both in the formula above.

16.4 = 100000 / T

PLEASE NO LINKS, REAL ANSWERS DON'T WASTE TIME.

Answers

First we have to find out the gravity on that planet. We use Newton second equation of motion. It is given as,

s = ut +(gt^2)/2

Distance s = 25m

Time t = 5 s

Velocity u = 0

By putting these values,

25 = 1/2.g.(5)²

g = 2

So the gravity on that planet is 2. Lets find out the weight of the astronaut.

Mass of the astronaut on earth m = 80 kg

Weight of astronaut on earth W = mg = (80)(9.8) = 784 N

Weight of astronaut on earth like planet = (80)(2) = 160 N

A stone of mass m = 1.05 kg is released from a height of h = 2.1 m into a pool of water. At a time of t = 1.83 s after hitting the surface of the water, the stone's velocity has decreased by 50%.
What is the magnitude of the average force the stone experiences, in newtons, during the time t?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

ignoring air resistance, the kinetic energy at water impact will equal the potential energy converted

½mv² = mgh

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2(9.81)2.1) = 6.4188... m/s

after impact, an impulse will result in a change of momentum.

There is a downward impulse due to gravity equal to the weight of the stone and an upward average force due to water resistance and buoyancy force.

FΔt = mΔv

(F - mg)Δt = m(vf - vi)

(F - mg) = m(vf - vi)/Δt

F = m(vf - vi)/Δt + mg

F = m((vf - vi)/Δt + g)

F = 1.05(((½(-6.4188) - -6.4188)/ 1.83) + 9.81)

F = 12.14198...

F = 12.1 N

The magnitude of the average force the stone experiences, will be 12.1 N.

What is force?

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body. Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

The given data in the problem is;

m is the stone mass = 1.05 kg

The height is h, = 2.1 m i

The time is, t = 1.83 s

Velocity decreased by 50%.

From the law of conservation of energy the kinetic energy is equal to the potential energy;

[tex]\rm \frac{1}{2} mv^2 = mgh \\\\ v = \sqrt{2gh}\\\\ v = \sqrt{2 \times 9.81 \times 2.1 } \\\\ v= 64188 \ m/sec.[/tex]

From Newton's second law of motion, the impulsive force is equal to the change in momentum;

[tex]\rm F \triangle T = m \traingle v \\\\ (F - mg) = \frac{v_f-v_i}{\triangle t } \\\\ F = \frac{v_f-v_i}{\triangle t } + mg \\\\ F =m\frac{v_f-v_i}{\triangle t + g} \\\\ F= 12.14 98 \\\\ F=12.1 N[/tex]
