True or False: The height from which cliff divers jump affects the velocity at which they will fall. Velocity is speed in a certain direction. Include your reasoning with your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the diver's speed is independent of the launch height.

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Newton's second law

              fr - W = m a

the friction force has the general form

              fr = b v

Let's analyze this equation to find out what happens with the speed of the distant club.

When jumping, the initial speed is zero, so the friction force is zero and has an acceleration equal to the acceleration of gravity, as the speed increases the friction force increases decreasing the acceleration until it becomes zero, when it arrives at this value the velocity it has is called terminal velocity and this velocity remains fixed in relation to the trajectory.

             fr = W

             v = cte

The distance or time in which this equilibrium is reached is relatively fast, so the diver's speed is independent of the launch height.

if you were to fill a graduated cylinder to 250 mL then drop an object in that raises the water level to 300 mL, what is the volume of the object, in cubic centimeters?

Answers

50cc. The conversion rate is 1ml to 1cc so you simply subtract the level in the cylinder before the object (250ml) from the level after dropping in the object (300ml) to find the difference, or the change. And then you multiply that figure by a factor of one because 1ml is equal to 1cc.

in your own words provide two advantages of using meters as a measurement of length rather than old measurements of length such as hands or steps

Answers

Answer:

First, the meters is the unit used in almost all the world today.

Then using meters as your unit will be easier to read and interpret for a larger number of people than if you use an older system, like hands or steps.

And because of the fact that almost all the world uses the meter as the unit for length, almost all the equations and formulas are written in meters.

Precision: The meter is exactly defined as:

"The length of the path traveled by light in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second"

So the meter is an exact (and accepted) unit.

Then using this unit for measures of length also provides some " legitimacy" for you measure.

THE LARGEST HORIZONTAL PLATES IS SEPARATED BY 4mm .The plate is at the potencial of -6V . What potencial should be applied to the upper plate to create electric feild strength 4000Vm-1 ypward in the space between the plate

Answers

Answer:

V₂ = -22 V

Explanation:

Electric potential and field are related

         ΔV = - E d

where ΔV is the potential difference between the plates, E the electric field and d the separation between the plates

 

In this exercise we are given the parcionero d = 4 mm = 0.004 m, the potential of one of the plates V1 = -6V and the value of the electric field E = 4000 V / m

          V₂- V₁ = - E d

          V₂ = - Ed + V₁

          V₂ = - 4000 0.004 + (- 6)

          V₂ = -16 - 6

          V₂ = -22 V

(100 + 1) s is (5.2 + 0.1) m. What is the
speed and it's error?
Ans: 0.052 ms-l, + 0.029 ms'​

Answers

Answer:

  v = (5.2 ± 0.2) 10⁻²   m / s

Explanation:

This is an exercise in kinematics of uniform motion. The formula for the average speed is

          v = x / t

let's calculate

          v = 5.2 / 100

          v = 0.052 m / s

          v = 5.2 10-2 m / s

we have to find the uncertainty of this quantity we propagate the error using derivatives

          Δv = dv /dx   Δx + dv /dt   Δt

taking everything in the most unfavorable case, I mean all positive

let's make the derivatives

          dv / dx = 1 / t

          dv / dt = -x / t²

we substitute

         Δv = 1 /t  Δx + x /t²   Δt

let's calculate the error

        Δv = 1/100 0.1 + 5.2 / 100²  1

        Δv = 1 10⁻³ + 5.2 10⁻⁴

        Δv = 1.52 10⁻³ m/s

           

the error must be given with a significant figure

         Dv = 2 10⁻³ m / s

the answer is

         v = (5.2 ± 0.2) 10⁻²   m / s

Un objeto se mueve con una rapidez constante de 8 m/s. Esto significa que el objeto: a) Aumenta su rapidez en 8m/s cada segundo b) Disminuye su rapidez en 8m/s cada segundo c) No se mueve d) Tiene aceleracion positiva e) se mueve 800 cm cada segundo

Answers

Explanation:

Constant speed means that the object is covering equal distance in equal interval of time. The motion is called uniform motion for such case. In this problem, it is given that an object is moving with a constant speed of 8 m/s. It means that it does not change its speed. It is moving with a single speed constantly.

We can say that it moves 8 meters every second or 800 cm every second.

What is the dependent variable in an experiment testing the effects of pH on growth of a seed?

a

d
Type of seed

Answers

The correct answer is A. Seed growth

Explanation:

Experiments often involve two main variables: the independent variable and the dependent variable. In an experiment, the dependent variable is always the main factor being studied; also, this is "dependent" because it is affected by other factors. In the case presented, the dependent variable is seed growth because this is the specific phenomenon that is being analyzed. Moreover, this factor is affected by the changes in pH. On the other hand, the pH, which is the second factor is the independent variable because this is not affected by the first variable and it is manipulated on purpose.

A jogger runs 186 meters westward, then 210 meters eastward, then 156 meters westward, and finally 8A meters eastward.​

Answers

Answer:

48

Explanation:

Given that a jogger runs 186 meters westward, then 210 meters eastward, then 156 meters westward, and finally 8A meters eastward.

To calculate the displacement, let assume that the

Westward = positive

Eastward = negative

Displacement = 186 - 210 + 156 - 84

Displacement = 342 - 294

Displacement = 48 m

Since the answer is positive, the direction of the displacement will be westward.

(The diameter decreases and the dimensions of the metal increases)

Explanation:

I will answer in English:

Here we have a piece of metal with a small hole on it, that is heated in a hoven.

We know that when a piece of metal is heated, it will expand (the density decreases, so the dimensions of the piece of metal increase).

Now, particularly, the hole will also expand but inwards, as each "extreme" of the piece of metal, will expand into where it has less resistance, so it will expand in the region where there is no material. This "inwards" expansion is why the diameter of the hole will decrease.

A circuit has a current of 2 A. If the resistance in the circuit decreases to one-fourth of its original amount while the voltage remains constant, what will be the resulting current

Answers

Answer:

8A

Explanation:

According to ohm's law, V = IR where;

V is the supply voltage (in volts)

I is the current supplied (in amperes)

R is the resistance (in ohms)

Initially, I = 2A, hence V = 2*R;

V = 2R .................... 1

If the resistance in the circuit decreases to one-fourth of its original amount while the voltage remains constant, then the new resistance will be expressed as R₂ = 1/4 R and V₂ = V

Substituting the new conditions into the ohms law formula, we will have;

V₂ = I₂R₂

I₂ is the resulting new current

V = I₂ (1/4 R)

V = I₂ * R/4

V = I₂R/4 ...... 2

Substituting equation 1 into 2 we will have;

2R = I₂R/4

2 = I₂/4

cross multiply

I₂ = 4*2

I₂ = 8A

Hence the resulting new current is 8A

What is the velocity of a plane that traveled 3,000 miles from New York to California in 4.5 hours

Answers

Answer:

v = 666.67 mph

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance from New York to California is 3000 miles

Time taken fromNew York to California is 4.5 hours

We need to find the velocity of a plane. Velocity is equal to the distance over time. So,

[tex]v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{3000\ \text{miles}}{4.5\ \text{hour}}\\\\v=666.67\ \text{mph}[/tex]

So, the velocity of the plane is 666.67 mph.

What kind of lens (converging or diverging) should he use to correct his eyesight, and what should be the focal length of the lens?

Answers

Incomplete question. However, I provided some information about when a converging or diverging lens is used. The common ones are:

Explanation:

In other to correct eyesight problems certain types of lenses are used depending on the condition.

Diverging lens: If the individual is suffering from nearsightedness (myopia); a condition that prevents a person from seeing distant objects clearly, but is able to see close objects clearly, then a divergent lens may be used to correct his eyesight.

Covergent lens: In a case where the person has a condition that prevents him from seeing close objects clearly while distant objects may be clear is called Farsightedness (hyperopia).

Boston Red Sox pitcher Roger Clemens could routinely throw a fastball at a horizontal
speed of 119.7 m/s. How long did the ball take to reach home plate 17.3 m away?

Answers

Answer: 0.145 seconds

Explanation:

Given that Roger Clemens could routinely throw a fastball at a horizontal speed of 119.7 m/s. How long did the ball take to reach home plate 17.3 m away

Since the speed is horizontal

Using the formula for speed which is

Speed = distance/time

Where

Speed = 119.7 m/s

Distance covered = 17.3 m

Time is what we are looking for

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

119.7 = 17.3/ time

Make time the subject of formula

Time = 17.3 / 119.7

Time = 0.145 seconds.

Therefore, it will take 0.145 seconds to reach the home plates

A car accelerates from rest at 5.75m/s2 for 4.4 sec when it runs out of pavement and runs into some mud. In the mud it accelerates to rest at -5.5m/s2. How far did it move from the beginning to the end? Give a variable legend for this problem. The model for this problem?

Answers

Answer:

113.85 m

Explanation:

When the car is on the pavement:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 5.75 m/s²

t = 4.4 s

Find: Δx and v

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (4.4 s) + ½ (5.75 m/s²) (4.4 s)²

Δx = 55.66 m

v = at + v₀

v = (5.75 m/s²) (4.4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 25.3 m/s

When the car is in the mud:

v₀ = 25.3 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -5.5 m/s²

Find: Δx

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (25.3 m/s)² + 2 (-5.5 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 58.19 m

The total displacement is therefore:

55.66 m + 58.19 m = 113.85 m
