You are seated in a bus and notice that a hand strap that is hanging from the ceiling hangs away from the vertical in the backwa

rd direction. From this observation, you can conclude that
A. the velocity of the bus is backward.
B. the velocity of the bus is forward.
C. You cannot conclude anything about the direction of the velocity of the bus.

Answer:C

Explanation:

It is given that hand strap moves from the vertical in the backward direction.

The direction of strap depends upon the acceleration of bus i.e. if bus is accelerating in forward direction then strap will move in backward direction and vice-versa.

The reason for moving backwards is due to the psuedo acting on strap which bends the strap in backward direction

angle of inclination is given by \tan \theta =\frac{a}{g}

where a=acceleration of bus

\theta=inclination of strap from vertical

so we cannot conclude anything about the direction of the velocity of the bus

A typical human contains 5.00 l of blood, and it takes 1.00 min for all of it to pass through the heart when the person is resti
Mrrafil [7]
<span>(a) 0.0676 l (b) 67.6 cc So we've been told that 5.00 L of blood flows through the heart every minute and that the heart beats 74.0 times per minute. So that means that for every beat of the heart, 5.00 L / 74.0 = 0.067567568 L of blood flows through the heart. Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 0.0676 l. Converting from liters to cubic centimeters simply require a multiplication by 1000, so we have 67.6 cc of blood pumped per beat.</span>

Rock X is released from rest at the top of a cliff that is on Earth. A short time later, Rock Y is released from rest from the s
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

C) True. S increases with time, v₁ = gt and v₂ = g (t-t₀)  we see that for the same t v₁> v₂

Explanation:

You have several statements and we must select which ones are correct. The best way to do this is to raise the problem.

Let's use the vertical launch equation. The positive sign because they indicate that the felt downward is taken as an opponent.

Stone 1

    y₁ = v₀₁ t + ½ g t²

    y₁ = 0 + ½ g t²

Rock2

It comes out a little later, let's say a second later, we can use the same stopwatch

     t ’= (t-t₀)

    y₂ = v₀₂ t ’+ ½ g t’²

    y₂ = 0 + ½ g (t-t₀)²

    y₂ = + ½ g (t-t₀)²

Let's calculate the distance between the two rocks, it should be clear that this equation is valid only for t> = to

    S = y₁ -y₂

    S = ½ g t²– ½ g (t-t₀)²

    S = ½ g [t² - (t²- 2 t to + to²)]  

    S = ½ g (2 t t₀ - t₀²)

    S = ½ g t₀ (2 t -t₀)

This is the separation of the two bodies as time passes, the amount outside the Parentheses is constant.

For t <to.  The rock y has not left and the distance increases

For t> = to.  the ratio (2t/to-1)> 1 therefore the distance increases as time

passes

Now we can analyze the different statements

A) false. The difference in height increases over time

B) False S increases

C) Certain s increases with time, v₁ = gt and V₂ = g (t-t₀) we see that for the same t   v₁> v₂

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion. Which o
Setler [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option: D. Gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion because the gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.  

Basically when the car is starting, the person inside is in static position and the car is going to move. So it is putting a force on the person to move on the same speed. But as the person is sitting static hence gravity is pulling him behind from moving. Hence, The dummy appears to be pressed backward.

grandymaker [24]

Answer- the correct option for the question would be choice number c which tells us about the natural selection process of human species.

Explanation- Evolution of psychology was studied under the given heads namely Behaviorism cognitive functionalism sociocultural Psychodynamic and structuralism.  

On studying the facts under these prospects the evolution of psychology gives us the idea of the selection by nature of individuals and the pattern of their behavior shown in different aspects.
