A dog of mass 10 kg sits on a skateboard of mass 2 kg that is initially traveling south at 2 m/s. The dog jumps off with a veloc

ity of 1 m/s north rela-tive to the ground. Which of the following is the best estimate of the velocity of the skateboard immediately after the dog has jumped?
(A) 1 m/s north(B) 1 m/s south(C) 3 m/s south (D) 7 m/s south(E) 17 m/s south

Answer:

17 m/s south

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of dog = 10 kg

m_2 = Mass of skateboard = 2 kg

v = Combined velocity = 2 m/s

u_1 = Velocity of dog = 1 m/s

u_2 = Velocity of skateboard

In this system the linear momentum is conserved

(m_1+m_2)v+m_1u_1+m_2u_2=0\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\dfrac{(m_1+m_2)v+m_1u_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\dfrac{(10+2)2+10\times 1}{2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-17\ m/s

The velocity of the skateboard will be 17 m/s south as the north is taken as positive

Yamel is heating up leftover mashed potatoes from Thanksgiving. She forgot to put gravy on them. So she puts the cold gravy on t
monitta

Answer:

The correct answer is - option A. The mashed potatoes will transfer heat into the gravy.

Explanation:

In this case, where Yamel heats the mashed potatoes but forgets to heat the gravy and put the cold gravy on the hot mashed potatoes. Heat always transfers from the high-temperature object to the low-temperature object. So the hot mashed potatoes will transfer the heat to the gravy according to option A. Cold is not a form of heat but the condition of absence of heat or very low temperature.

Thus, the correct answer is - option A. The mashed potatoes will transfer heat into the gravy.

A ball was kicked upward at a speed of 64.2 m/s. how fast was the ball going 1.5 seconds later
UNO [17]

Anything that's not supported and doesn't hit anything, and
doesn't have any air resistance, gains 9.8 m/s of downward
speed every second, on account of gravity.  If it happens to
be moving up, then it loses 9.8 m/s of its upward speed every
second, on account of gravity.

                (64.2 m/s)  -  [ (9.8 m/s² ) x (1.5 sec) ] 

            =  (64.2 m/s)  -       [      14.7 m/s      ]

            =             49.5 m/s  .  (upward)

The study of alternating electric current requires the solutions of equations of the form i equals Upper I Subscript max Baselin
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Explanation:

i = Imax sin2πft

given i = 180 , Imax = 200 , f = 50  , t = ?

Put the give values in the equation above

180 = 200 sin 2πft

sin 2πft = .9

sin2π x 50t = .9

sin 360 x 50 t = sin ( 360n + 64 )

360 x 50 t = 360n + 64

360 x 50 t =  64 ,  ( putting n = 0 for least value of t )

18000 t = 64

t = 3.55 ms  .
