Scotesia swims from the north end to the south end of a 50.0 m pool in 20.0 s. As she begins to make the return trip , Sean, who

has been enthusiastically cheering in the stands fall into the pool and startles Scotesia. Her return trip to the starting position takes 55.0 s. A) What is her average velocity for the first half of the swim? b) What is her average velocity for the second half of the swim? c) What is her average velocity for the roundtrip?

Answer:

a) 2.5m/s

b) 0.91m/s

c) 0m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity can be said to be the ratio of the displacement with respect to time.

Average speed on the other hand is the ratio of distance in relation to time

Thus, to get the average velocity for the first half of the swim

V(average) = displacement of first trip/time taken on the trip

V(average) = 50/20

V(average) = 2.5m/s

Average velocity for the second half of the swim will be calculated in like manner, thus,

V(average) = 50/55

V(average) = 0.91m/s

Average velocity for the round trip will then be

V(average) = 0/75, [50+25]

V(average) = 0m/s

At room temperature, a typical person loses energy to the surroundings at the rate of 62 W. If this energy loss has to be made u
Alex_Xolod [135]

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the given proportions of power and energy, as well as the energy conversion factor in Jules to Calories.

The power is defined as the amount of energy lost per second and whose unit is Watt. Therefore the energy loss rate given in seconds was

P = \frac{E}{t} \rightarrow E= Energy, t = time

P = 62W = 62 \frac{J}{s}

The rate of energy loss per day would then be,

P = 62\frac{J}{s} (\frac{86400s}{1day})

P = 5356800 \frac{J}{day}

That is to say that Energy in Jules per lost day is 5356800J

By definition we know that 1KCal = 4.184*10^{6}J

In this way the energy in Cal is,

E = 5356800J \frac{1KCal}{4.184*10^{6}J}

E = 1279.694 KCal

The number of kilocalories (food calories) must be 1279.694 KCal

During a hurricane, the atmospheric pressure inside a house may blow off the roof because of the reduced pressure outside. If ai
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

817.5 Pa

Explanation:

From Bernoulli's equation, considering thst there is no height difference then

P1+½d(v1)²=P2+½d(v2)²

P1-P2=½d(v2²-v1²)

∆P=½d(v2²-v1²)

Where P represent pressure, d is density and v is velocity. Subscripts 1 and 2 represent inside and outside. ∆P is tge change in pressure

Given the speed at roof top as 128 km/h, we convert it to m/s as follows

128*1000/3600=35.555555555555=35.56 m/s

Velocity at the bottom of roof is 0 m/s

Density is given as 1.293 kg/m³

∆P=½*1.293*(35.56²-0)=817.5 Pa
