A swimmer is capable of swimming at 1.4m/s in still water. a. How far downstream will he land if he swims directly across a 180m wide river? b. How long will it take him to reach the other side.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

t = 180 / 1.4 = 129 sec   (time to swim horizontally across river)

S = 129 sec * V     where V is speed of current and S is the distance he will be carried downstream

The problem does not specify V the speed of the river

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

a) the distance(D) showing how dar downstream he will land can be computed as follows:

Assuming the current of the river = 0.2 m/s

[tex]D = \dfrac{180 \ m \times 0.2 \ m/s}{1.4 \ m/s}[/tex]

D = 36 m ÷ 1.4

D = 25.71 m

The required time (t) to reach the other side is:

time (t) = 180 m/ 1.4 m/s

time (t) = 128.57 seconds

At the local grocery store, you push a 14.5-kg shopping cart. You stop for a moment to add a bag of dog food to your cart. With a force of 12.0 N you now accelerate the cart from rest through a distance of 2.29 m in 3.00 s. What was the mass of the dog food?

Answers

Answer:

The mass of the dog food added is 9.03 kg

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the shopping cart, m₁ = 14.5 kg

let the mass of the bag added = m₂

the force applied, F = 12 N

initial velocity of the cart-bag system, u = 0

distance traveled by the system, d = 2.29 m

time of motion of the system, t = 3.0 s

The acceleration of the system is calculated as;

[tex]d = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2\\\\2.29 = 0 + (\frac{1}{2} \times 3^2)a\\\\2.29 = 4.5 a\\\\a = \frac{2.29}{4.5} \\\\a = 0.51 \ m/s^2[/tex]

The total mass of the system (M) is calculated as follows;

F = Ma

M = F/a

M = (12)/(0.51)

M = 23.53 kg

The mass of the dog food added is calculated as;

m₂ = M - m₁

m₂ = 23.53 kg - 14.5 kg

m₂ = 9.03 kg

Acircuit consist of three resistor in series one of 3 ohm, one of 7 ohm , one of 10 ohm battery of emf 12volt and neglible internal resistance is connected circuit what is size of circuit supply

Answers

Answer:

0.6 A

Explanation:

Applying,

I = E/(R'+r).................... Equation 1

Where I = curent or circuit supply, R'= equivalent external resistance, r = internal resistance.

From the question,

Given: E = 12 Volt,

IF the three resistors are connected in series, R' = (3+7+10) ohm = 20 ohm,

r = neglible.

Substitute these values into equation 1

I = 12/(20)

I = 0.6 A

calculate:An elcetric lamp is rated 240V and 40W. What is the cost of running the lamp for 62 hours if the elctricity authorities charges #2.50k per KWH

Answers

Answer:

Total cost = #6.2

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 240 V

Power = 40 W

Time = 62 hours

Cost = #2.50

To find the cost of running the lamp for 62 hours;

First of all, we would determine the energy consumption of the electric lamp

Energy consumption = power * time

Energy consumption = 40 * 62

Energy consumption = 2480 Watt-hour = 2.48 Kwh (1 Kilowatts is equal to 1000 watts).

Next, we would determine the cost of running the lamp;

Total cost = energy consumption * cost

Total cost = 2.48 * 2.50

Total cost = #6.2

What is the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere with the following measurements?
surface are=432m^2
volume=864m^3

Answers

Answer:

S:V = 1 : 2

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Surface area, S = 432 m²

Volume, V = 864 m³

To find the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere;

The ratio of two or more numbers are determined by reducing the numbers to their nearest minimum i.e dividing all through by the same or common number.

S:V = 432 : 864

Dividing both sides by 432, we have;

S:V = 432/432 : 864/432

S:V = 1 : 2

4. Alcohol of mass 21g and density 0.7gcm-3 is mixed with 10g of water. Determine the density
of the mixture. (density of water = 1.0g cm-3)

Answers

Answer:

The density of the mixture is 0.775 g/cm³

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the alcohol, m₁ = 21 g

The density of the alcohol, ρ₁ = 0.7 g/cm³

The mass of the water with which the alcohol is mixed, m₂ = 10 g

The density of wate, ρ₂ = 1.0 g/cm³

The density of a substance is given by the ratio of the mass to the volume of the substance

The density of the mixture, ρ is given as follows;

[tex]\rho = \dfrac{m_1 + m_2}{\dfrac{m_1}{\rho_1} + \dfrac{m_2}{\rho_2} }[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\rho = \dfrac{21 + 10}{\dfrac{21}{0.7} + \dfrac{10}{1.0} } = 0.775[/tex]

The density of the mixture, ρ = 0.775 g/cm³.

A -0.00125 C charge is placed 3.62 m from a +0.00333 C charge. What is the magnitude of the electric force between them?

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the force between the charges is approximately -2,858.77 N

Explanation:

The given details are;

The magnitude of the given charges;

q₁ = -0.00125 C, q₂ = +0.00333 C

The distance between the charges, r = 3.62 m

The magnitude of the electric force between the charges, 'F', between two charged particles or objects is given as follows;

[tex]F = \dfrac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

Where;

k = Constant = 9 × 10⁹ N·m²/C²

q₁ = The magnitude of charge on the first charged object = -0.00125 C

q₂ = The magnitude of charge on the second charged object = +0.00333 C

r = The distance between the charges = 3.62 m

Plugging in the values, gives;

[tex]F = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \ \dfrac{N \cdot m^2}{C^2} \times (-0.00125 \, C) \times (+0.00333 \, C)}{\left( 3.62 \, m \right)^2} \approx -2,858.77 \, N[/tex]

The magnitude of the force between the charges, F ≈ -2,858.77 N

What is the final position of the student? Show your solution graphically and numerically.
please help!!

Answers

Answer:

The final position is  (2, 7)m

Explanation:

When we work with coordinate pairs, the addition works as:

(a, b) + (c, d) = (a + c, b + d)

So, for example, if we start at (a, b), and we have a displacement d = (1, 1)

we just need to solve:

(a, b) + (1, 1) = (a + 1, b + 1)

Now, in this case, we start at (4, 4)m

first, we have d1 = (2, -3) m

After this displacement, the position is:

(4, 4)m + (2, -3)m = (4 + 2, 4 - 3)m = (6, 1)m

Now we have a displacement d2 = (-5, 0) m

After this, the position is:

(6, 1)m + (-5, 0)m = (6 -5, 1 + 0)m = (1, 1)m

After this, we have the final displacement d3 = (1, 6) m, so the final position will be:

(1, 1)m + (1, 6)m = (1 + 1, 1 + 6)m = (2, 7)m

What is kinetic energy?

In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest. Formally, kinetic energy is any term in a system's Lagrangian which includes a derivative concerning time.

In classical mechanics, the kinetic energy of a non-rotating object of mass m traveling at a speed v is [tex]{\textstyle {\frac {1}{2}}mv^{2}}[/tex]

In relativistic mechanics, this is a good approximation only when v is much less than the speed of light.

The standard unit of kinetic energy is the joule, while the English unit of kinetic energy is the foot-pound.
