a football player starts from rest and speeds up to a final velocity of 12 m/s. the speeding up takes a total of 6 seconds. what is the football players acceleration

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 12 m/s

Time (t) = 6 s

Acceleration (a) =?

The acceleration of the player can be obtained as follow:

v = u + at

12 = 0 + (a × 6)

12 = 6a

Divide both side by 6

a = 12 / 6

a = 2 m/s²

Thus, the acceleration of the player is 2 m/s²

In any given wave, when the frequency of the wave doubles (f = 2f), which of the following other changes would also take place?
A The wavelength would double (λ = 2λ).
B The velocity would double (v = 2v).
C The wavelength would be half (λ = λ/2).
D The velocity would be half (v = v/2).

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is -

B. The velocity would double (v = 2v).

C. The wavelength would be half (λ = λ/2).

Explanation:

A wave has a speed or velocity that is related to the wavelength of the wave and the frequency of the wave and this relationship can be represented by the following equation-

Wave velocity V = Wavelength (λ) * Frequency (f)

Frequency (f) = Velocity (V) / Wavelength(λ).

The frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional and frequency and velocity are directly proportional to each other.

So, if f = 2f then,

putting value in the formula,

2f = 2v/λ, which means, f = 2v and f = λ/2

when the frequency is doubled, the wavelength will be halved and velocity will be doubled.

The tension in a pulley belt is 31 N when stationary. Calculate power in watts transmitted when the belt is on the point of slipping on the smaller wheel. the wheel is 379 mm diameter and the coefficient of friction is 0.3. The angle of lap is 1610. The wheel speed is 1,547 rev/min.

Answers

Answer:

P = 756.84 Watts

Explanation:

As the tension is stationary or innitial, T₀ = 31 N, the mean would be:

T₁ + T₂ / 2 = T₀    (1)

T₁ + T₂ = 2 * 31 = 62 N

Now, with the following expression we can determine the linear speed:

V = πWD  (2)

W: angular speed of the wheel  (rev/s)

D: diameter of the wheel (in meters)

W = 1547 rev/min * (1 min/60 s) = 25.78 rev/s

V = π * 25.78 * 0.379 = 30.695 m/s

We also know that:

T₁ / T₂ = exp (μθ)

T₁ = T₂ exp(μθ)   (3)

We already have those values so replacing:

T₁ = T₂ exp(0.3 * 161 * π/180)

T₁ = 2.32T₂   (4)

We can now replace (4) in (1) like this:

T₁ + T₂ = 62 N

2.32T₂ + T₂ = 62

3.32T₂ = 62

T₂ = 18.67 N

Which means that T₁:

T₁ = 2.32(18.67)

T₁ = 43.33 N

Finally, the power can be determined using the following expression:

P = (T₁ - T₂)V  (5)       Replacing we have:

P = (43.33 - 18.67)*30.695

P = 756.84 Watts

A 10- kg ball starting from rest rolls down a 5 m tall smooth hill from one person to another person who is standing at the bottom of the hill with a big spring whose constant is 100 N/m. How far does the spring compress in order to stop the ball

Answers

Answer: 3.13 m

Explanation:

Given

mas of the ball is m=10 kg

The ball rolls down a vertical distance of 5 m

Spring constant of spring is [tex]k=100\ N/m[/tex]

Here, the potential energy of the ball converted into kinetic energy which in turn converts into elastic potential energy

[tex]\Rightarrow mgh=\frac{1}{2}kx^2\quad [\text{x=compression in the spring}]\\\\\Rightarrow 10\times 9.8\times 5=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 100\cdot x^2\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{9.8}\\\Rightarrow x=3.13\ m[/tex]

Thus, the spring compresses by 3.13 m.

His eyes are 1.83 m above the floor, and the top of his head is 0.15 m higher. Find the height above the floor of the top and bottom of the smallest mirror in which he can see both the top of his head and his feet.

Answers

Answer:

 y_lower = 0.915 m,   y_superior = 1,905 m

Explanation:

In this exercise we use the law of reflection for a flat mirror.

         θ’= θ

To see the feet of the person a ray of light that part of them must reach the bottom of the mirror and its reflection has to reach the eyes.

As the law of reflection the incident and reflected angles are equal, the distance from the floor to the point where the two rays (incident and reflected) touch the mirror must be symmetrical, oses from the floor

           y = 1.83 / 2

           y = 0.915 m

To see the head, a ray of light that comes from the tip of the head and is reflected in the mirror must reach the eyes. As the head is 0.15 m above the eyes and the incident and reflected rays have the same angle, the mirror must be at half the height, that is, the mirror is 0.075 m below the tip of the head.

In summary

* the bottom of the mirror is 0.915 m from the ground

* the top of the mirror is at 1.83 + 0.075

                 y_superior = 1,905 m

Besides ethical considerations, what is another reason why Milgram’s experiment may be difficult to duplicate?

Answers

Last month, we featured IRB best practices (“IRBs: Navigating the Maze” November 2007 Observer), and got the ball rolling with strategies and tips that psychological scientists have found to work. Here, we continue the dissemination effort with the second of three articles by researchers who share their experiences with getting their research through IRB hoops. Jerry Burger from Santa Clara University managed to do the seemingly impossible — he conducted a partial replication of the infamous Milgram experiment. Read on for valuable advice, and look for similar coverage in upcoming Observers. These are the first words I said to Muriel Pearson, producer for ABC News’ Primetime, when she approached me with the idea of replicating Stanley Milgram’s famous obedience studies. Milgram’s work was conducted in the early 1960s before the current system of professional guidelines and IRBs was in place. It is often held up as the prototypic example of why we need policies to protect the welfare of research participants. Milgram’s participants were placed in an emotionally excruciating situation in which an experimenter instructed them to continue administering electric shocks to another individual despite hearing that person’s agonizing screams of protest. The studies ignited a debate about the ethical treatment of participants. And the research became, as I often told my students, the study that can never be replicated. Hope this helps!

You are studying a population of flowering plants for several years.

Which of the following graph descriptions could accurately present your data?
a) With seeds in the current year on the y-axis and seeds in the previous year on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased from left to right
b) With survivorship on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that decreased left to right.
c) With leaf area on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased left to right
d) With survivorship on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased left to right.
e) With seeds in the current year on the y-axis and seeds in the previous year on the x-axis, you would see a line that decreased from left to right

Answers

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The graph for this problem must depict the following ""Increased allocation of resources to reproduction relative to growth diminished future fecundity."

Hence, the survivor ship must be on the Y axis and the resources on the X axis.

Here the resources include the number of seeds produced.

hence, the higher is the number of seeds (resource), the lower is the survivorship (future fecundity)

Hence, option A is correct

he electric field is dependent on the distance between the plates. false: The voltage of a connected charged capacitor decreases when the plate area is increased. false: The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor increases when the plates are brought closer together.

Answers

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor decreases when the plates are brought closer together because the capacitance is inversely proportional to the area. If the area between plates decreases, its capacitance increases and vice versa. There is direct relationship between voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor and plates. If the distance between plates decreases, the voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor is also decreases while on the other hand, if the distance between plates increases, the voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor is also increases.

The lens labelled (B) has radius 16.5cm on the curved side. Using the shape of the lens to assign the sign of the radius, calculate the focal length of the lens. Give your answer with the correct positive or negative sign using the usual convention for lenses.

Answers

Answer:

convex       f = 33 cm

concave     f = -33 cm

Explanation:

In geometric optics the focal length of a lens is given by

         [tex]\frac{1}{f} = ( n-1) \ (\frac{1}{R_2} - \frac{1}{R_1} )[/tex]

where n is the refractive index of the medium, R₁ and R₂   are the focal lengths on each side of the lens.

In this case one of the sides is flat so its focal length is infinite, if the lens is convex the focal length is positive, convergent lens and if it is concave the focal length is negative, divergent lens.

         [tex]\frac{1}{f} = (n-1) \ \frac{1}{R}[/tex]

the refractive index of the glass is n = 1.5

let's calculate

         1 / f = (1.5 -1) 1 / 16.5

         1 / f = 0.03030

          f = 33 cm

convex       f = 33 cm

concave     f = -33 cm

The load across a 12 V battery consists of a series combination of three resistors 34 Ω, 42Ω, and 30Ω. What is the total resistance of the load? Answer in units of Ω. What is the current in the circuit? Answer in units of A.

Answers

Answer:

The total resistance is 106 Ω and the current in the circuit is 0.11 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of the battery, V = 12 V

Resistors 34 Ω, 42Ω, and 30Ω are connected in series.

The total resistance is given by :}

R = 34 + 42 +30

= 106Ω

Let I is the total current in the circuit. Using ohm's law to find it such that,

[tex]I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{12}{106}\\\\I=0.11\ A[/tex]

Hence, the total resistance is 106 Ω and the current in the circuit is 0.11 A.

A 70 kg human body typically contains 140 g of potassium. Potassium has a chemical atomic mass of 39.1 u and has three naturally occurring isotopes. One of those isotopes, 40K (potassium), is radioactive with a half-life of 1.3 billion years and a natural abundance of 0.012 %. Each 40K (potassium) decay deposits, on average, 1.0 MeV of energy into the body.
What yearly dose in Gy does the typical person receive from the decay of 40K (potassium) in the body? Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

Gy = 3.14x10⁻⁴ Gy

Explanation:

To get the dose in Gy we need to use the following expression:

Gy = E / m  (1)

Where:

Gy: dose

E: energy absorbed per atom

m: mass of the human body.

We don't have the energy per atom, but we can calculate that by following the next procedure.

First, let's determine the number of atoms of potassium in our body. For that we need to determine the moles in the 140 g of potassium, with the molecular mass and then, use the avogadro's number:

moles = m/MM

moles = 140 / 39.1 = 3.58 moles

N° atoms = 3.58 * 6.02x10²³ atoms = 2.16x10²⁴ atoms of K.

The abundance of the ⁴⁰K is 0.012% so the atoms of this isotope would be:

N = 2.16x10²⁴ * (0.012/100) = 2.59x10²⁰ atoms of ⁴⁰K.

With this number, and the half life rate, we can determine the number of decay atoms in a year (λ) using the following expression:

λ = ln2 / t(1/2)

λ = ln2 / 1.3x10⁹ = 5.33x10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹

This number, multiplied by the number of atoms:

R = 5.33x10⁻¹⁰ * 2.59x10²⁰ = 1.38x10¹¹ atoms/year

Now, each atom of K gives an average energy of 1 MeV, so with the atoms we have:

E = 1.38x10¹¹ * 1x10⁶ eV = 1.38x10¹⁷ eV

This value can be expressed in Joules so:

E = 1.38x10¹⁷ eV * (1 J / 6.24x10¹⁸ eV) = 0.022 J

Finally, we can use (1) to get the dose in Gy:

Gy = 0.022 / 70

Gy = 3.14x10⁻⁴ Gy

Hope this helps

A physics student mounts two thin lenses along a single optical axis (the lenses are at right angles to the line connecting them, and they appear concentric when viewed from either end). The lenses are identical, each with a positive (converging) focal length of 14.8 cm. They are separated by a distance of 39.4 cm. Lens 1 is to the left of Lens 2.

Required:
a. What is the final image's distance (in cm) from Lens 2?
b. Where is the final image located?
c. What is the overall magnification of the lens pair, considered as a single optical instrument?

Answers

Answer:

A)    q₂ = 75.98 cm, B)     q₂' = 115.38 cm, C)

Explanation:

A) This is an exercise in geometric optics, as the two lenses are separated by a greater distance than their focal lengths from each lens, they must be worked as independent lenses.

Lens 1. More to the left

let's use the constructor equation

         [tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}[/tex]

where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively,

We must assume a distance to the object to perform the calculation, suppose that the object is 50 cm from lens 1 that is further to the left of the system.

          [tex]\frac{1}{q_1} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{p}[/tex]

         [tex]\frac{1}{q_1} = \frac{1}{14.8} - \frac{1}{50}[/tex]  

          1 / q₁ = 0.04756

           q₁ = 21.0227 cm

this image is the object for the second lens that has f₂ = 14.8 cm

the distance must be measured from the second lens

          p₂ = 39.4 -q₁

          p₂ = 39.4 -21.0227

          p₂ = 18.38 cm

let's use the constructor equation

            1 / q₂ = 1 / f - 1 / p2

             

             [tex]\frac{1}{q_2} = \frac{1}{14.8} - \frac{1}{18.38}[/tex]

            [tex]\frac{1}{q_2}[/tex] = 0.01316

            q₂ = 75.98 cm

measured from the second lens

B) the position of the final image with respect to the first lens is

            q₂’= q₂ + 39.4

             q₂'= 75.98 +39.4

              q₂' = 115.38 cm

C) the magnification of a lens is

              m = - q / p

in this case the image measured from lens 2 is q2 = 75.98 cm

the distance to the object from the first lens is p1 = 50cm

          m = - 75.98 / 50

          m = -1.5 X

the negative sign indicates that the image is inverted

3) A 30 kg child slides freely across a "Slip and Slide" on LEVEL GROUND. While the child slides, the force applied to keep them sliding is 0 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.02. What is the acceleration experienced by the child?

Answers

Answer:

a = 0.1962 m/s^2

Explanation:

The magnitude of kinetic friction exerted is given by

[tex]F_k=\mu_kN[/tex]

Where, μ_k= coefficient of kinetic friction= 0.02 and N = reaction force = mg

Where m= mass = 30 Kg and, g is acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m/s^2

F_k=0.02×30×9.81 =5.886 N

Now, since, there is no applied force this kinetic friction force will cause acceleration of the child

⇒ ma = F_k

here, a is the acceleration

⇒30a = 5.886

⇒ a = 0.1962 m/s^2

A spinning disc with a mass of 2.5kg and a radius of 0.80m is rotating with an angular velocity of 1.5 rad/s. A ball of clay with unknown mass is dropped onto the disk and sticks to the very edge causing the angular velocity of the disk to slow to 1.13 rad/s. What is the mass of the ball of clay

Answers

Answer:

M = 1.90 Kg

Explanation:

Given data: mass = 2.5 Kg

radius R = 0.8 m

angular velocity ω = 1.5 rad/s

Angular momentum L =0.5×Iω^2

Where, I  is the moment of inertia of the spinning disc.

I = 0.5MR^2

I = 0.5×2.5×0.8^2

I = 0.8 Kg/m^2

Then L = 0.5×0.8×1.5^2 = 0.8×2.25 = 0.9 Kg-m^2/sec

Let unknown mass be M

New mass of disc = (2.5+M) Kg, R = 0.8 m

New I = 0.5(2.5+M)(0.8)^2

Since, angular momentum is conserved

Angular momentum before = angular momentum after

0.5×0.5(2.5+M)(0.8)^2×(1.13)^2 = 0.9

Solving for M we get

0.204304(2.5+M)=0.9

M = 1.90 Kg
