Rickey Henderson, baseball's record holder for stolen bases, approaches third base. He dives head first, hitting the ground at 6.75 m/s and reaching the base with a speed of 5.91 m/s, accelerating at -5.11 m/s 2 . Determine the distance Rickey slides across the ground before touching the base. How much time is he sliding for before touching the base?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance is 1.04 m and time is 0.16 seconds.

Explanation:

Initial speed, u = 6.75 m/s

Final speed, v = 5.91 m/s

Acceleration, a = -5.11 m/s²

We need to find the distance Rickey slides across the ground before touching the base and the time he sliding for before touching the base.

Let d is the distance. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as follows :

[tex]v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{(5.91)^2-(6.75)^2}{2\times (-5.11)}\\\\d=1.04\ m[/tex]

Let t is the time he slides for before touching the base. Using first equation of motion as follows :

[tex]t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{5.91-6.75}{-5.11}\\\\t=0.16\ s[/tex]

So, the distance is 1.04 m and time is 0.16 seconds.

In a battery (voltaic cell), in which direction does conventional current flow?

Answers

Answer:

In a discharging battery or galvanic cell (diagram at right), the anode is the negative terminal because it is where conventional current flows into the cell.

Explanation

In the lab. construct two half cells, one a zinc half cell and the other a copper half cell.

The zinc metal electrode will more readily ionise to Zn^2+  ion , then the copper metal.

This is because in the reactivity series zinc is more reactive metal.

Hence

connecting the two half cells, the zinc cell is put on the left and the copper half cell on the right.

Connect a wire and voltmeters between the electrodes, and a salt bridge between the two metal ion solutions.

Since the zinc is on the left and loses its electrons more readily the electrons flow from the electrode through the wire and voltmeter to the copper electrode.  So the electrons flow from r

left to right.

The conventional eq'n is

Zn|Zn^2+||Cu^2+|Cu

The electrons move into the copper electrode combine with copper solution to form more copper metal, which deposits on the copper electrode.

In a battery (voltaic cell), conventional current flow in the direction from positive to negative.

What is Current ?

Current is a flow of charges. it is denoted by i and expressed in ampere A.

Mathematically it is expressed as i = q/t, where q is the amount of charge and t is time. Current is nothing but amount of charges flown in the unit time in the electric wire. Charge is expressed in coulomb C and time in second s. hence coulomb per second (C/s) is ampere A. Charge on electron is 1.60217663 × 10⁻¹⁹ which is called as elementary charge.

There are two types of the current, Convectional current and non-conventional current.

Convectional current is the current flows from positive to negative. Non convectional current flows from negative to positive. Note that flow of electrons is from negative to positive.

Hence direction of flow of conventional current is from positive to negative.

A tourist wishes to catch a train in 1.2 hours, which is 115 km away. If she spends the first half-hour going 90km/h, how fast will she need to go to get to station on time?

Answers

Answer:

100km/hr

Explanation:

From the problem statement we know that distance of the trip is 115km

Expected time for the trip = 1.2hrs

→ If she spends the first half-hour going 90km/hr,

    Here  time  = 0.5hr

              speed  = 90km/hr

 The distance covered;

    Distance covered   =  Speed x time

    Distance covered  = 90 x 0.5  = 45km

→The remaining distance will be:

        Total distance - distance covered

              115km  - 45km  = 70km

→ The remaining time;

      1.2hr - 0.5hr  = 0.7hr

 Speed  = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]  

  Insert the parameters and solve;

  Speed  = [tex]\frac{70}{0.7}[/tex]   = 100km/hr

For the remaining lap, the tourist must travel at a rate of 100km/hr to catch up.

Given that on the moon g = 1.6 m/s2, and on Earth g = 9.8 m/s2, if a car on the moon weighs 3.8 N, what is its mass on Earth?

Do not write units in your answer, only numbers.

Round to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The weight of the car on Earth is 19.6

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The gravitational acceleration on the moon, [tex]a_{Moon}[/tex] = 1.6 m/s²

The gravitational acceleration on Earth, g = 9.8 m/s²

The weight of the car on the moon = 3.8 N

The weight of an object = The mass of the object, m × The gravitational acceleration acting on the object, g

The weight of the car = The mass of the car × The gravitational acceleration on the moon

∴ 3.8 N = The mass of the car × 1.6

The mass of the car = 3.8/1.6 = 2 kg

The weight of the car on Earth =The mass of the car × The gravitational acceleration on Earth, g

The weight of the car on Earth = 2 × 9.8 = 19.6

The weight of the car on Earth = 19.6.

In the human circulatory system, arteries carry blood away from the heart to different parts of the body. Veins carry blood from different parts of the body back to the heart. A scientist claims that the greater the amount of exercise a person performs, the greater the amount of oxygen (O2) the body uses. He records the oxygen concentration in the blood of people while they are riding an exercise bike. The graphs show the results of this investigation.



a. Identify at least two systems within the human body that work together during exercise.

b. Explain how the evidence from the data in the graphs supports or does not support the scientist’s claim.

Answers

Answer:

There are many different systems involved in when we exercise, the three main ones are the Respiratory system which is involved in breathing the circulatory system which is about circulation of blood around the body and finally the muscular system and finally the Muscular system which is about how we move.

Explanation:

If the data consistently do not support the hypothesis, then CLEARLY, the hypothesis is NOT a reasonable explanation of what you are investigating. The hypothesis is rejected, and we search for a new interpretation, an new hypothesis that supports the experimental data

Respiratory and circulatory systems are the two systems within the human body that work together during exercise.

How does the respiratory and circulatory systems work together during exercise?

The respiratory system:

allows the exchange of gases intake of oxygen and exhalation of carbon-dioxide.oxygenation of blood at the lungs.

The circulatory system:

transports deoxygenated blood to the lungs for oxygenation.delivers oxygenated blood to the appropriate tissue.Hence, during exercise more oxygen is used by the body.The claim by scientist is true?

During exercise:

breathing rate increases from about 15 times per minute to roughly 40–60 times per minute.heart rate also rises, providing more oxygen to reach your muscles and allowing them to continue moving.

After the collision, both carts move left, Cart A at speed 0.27m/s.

What is the velocity of cart B after the collision? Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

The velocity of cart B after the collision is 1.29 m/s.

Explanation:

We can find the velocity of cart B by conservation of linear momentum:

[tex] p_{i} = p_{f} [/tex]

[tex] m_{A}v_{A_{i}} + m_{B}v_{B_{i}} = m_{A}v_{A_{f}} + m_{B}v_{B_{f}} [/tex]

Where:

[tex]m_{A}[/tex] is the mass of cart A = 600 g = 0.6 kg            

[tex]m_{B}[/tex] is the mass of cart B = 200 g = 0.2 kg

[tex]v_{A_{i}}[/tex] is the inital velocity of cart A = 0.7 m/s

[tex]v_{A_{f}}[/tex] is the final velocity of cart A = 0.27 m/s

[tex]v_{B_{i}}[/tex] is the initial velocity of cart B = 0

[tex]v_{B_{f}}[/tex] is the final velocity of cart B =?

Taking the left direction as the positive horizontal direction:

[tex] 0.6 kg*0.7 m/s + 0 = 0.6 kg*0.27 m/s + 0.2 kg*v_{B_{f}} [/tex]

[tex] v_{B_{f}} = 1.29 m/s [/tex]

                       

Therefore, the velocity of cart B after the collision is 1.29 m/s.

A car travels west for 200000 m in 12600 s what’s its velocity

Answers

Answer:

Velocity = 15.87m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance, d = 200000m

Time, t = 12600secs

*To find the velocity*

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, velocity is given by the equation;

[tex]Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex]V = \frac{200000}{12600}[/tex]

Velocity = 15.87m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the car is 15.87 meters per seconds due west.

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 3.04 m away from a waterfall 0.585 m in height, at what minimum speed must a salmon jumping at an angle of 41.7 ◦ leave the water to continue upstream? The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . Answer in units of m/s.

Answers

Answer:

V₀ = 5.47 m/s

Explanation:

The jumping motion of the Salmon can be modelled as the projectile motion. So, we use the formula for the range of projectile motion here:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g

where,

R = Range of Projectile = 3.04 m

θ = Launch Angle = 41.7°

V₀ = Minimum Launch Speed = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

3.04 m = V₀² [Sin2(41.7°)]/(9.81 m/s²)

V₀² = 3.04 m/(0.10126 s²/m)

V₀ = √30.02 m²/s²

V₀ = 5.47 m/s
