Answer:

C) No air resistance or gravity

Explanation:

For headwind imagine an airplane flying. The wind is hitting the front of the aircraft. Just like the wind is hitting the front of the ball. This increases the drag force and the ball will eventually slow and let the force of gravity act.

For tailwind imagine a sailboat. The wind catches the sail a pushes the boat. Both the wind and boat are going the same way so the angle of the wind is coming from behind. This is why it is called a tail wind.

If a ball is thrown, it has wind resistance and gravity. Otherwise just imagine the ball traveling all around the earth. Because the ball only has the force of lift and thrust, the ball will stay in motion until it hits something strong enough to counteract its thrust.

The description does not state any contact with another object. Also the ball will immediately stop if it has less newtons of force.

You skip north for 12 minutes to your best friend's house that is 1.5 kilometers away. What is your average velocity?

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The average velocity is 7.5 km/h

Explanation:

Let's convert minutes to hours so our answer can be given in a common units of km/hour:

12 minutes = 12/60 hours = 0.2 hours

Now we estimate the average velocity calculating the distance travelled over the time it took:

1.5 / 0.2 km/h = 7.5 km/h

Answer:

428.59 N

Explanation:

Buoyant force, $B=Vg\rho$ where V is volume, g is gravitational constant and \rho is density

$B+F_{upward}=mg$ where $F_{upward}$ is upward force

$Vg\rho_{w}+F_{upward}=mg$

$F_{upward}=mg- Vg\rho_{w}$

$F_{upward}=g(mg- V\rho_{w})=g(m-m\frac {\rho_{w}{\rho_{hippo}}$ where $\rho_{hippo}$ is the density of hippo

$F_{upward}=mg(1-\frac {\rho_{w}}{\rho_{hippo}})$

Using g as 9.81

$F_{upward}=1500*9.81*(1-1000/1030)= 428.5922 N$

Therefore, the upward force=428.59 N

A wire with a length of 150 m and a radius of 0.15 mm carries a current with a uniform current density of 2.8 x 10^7A/m^2. The c

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The current is 2.0 A.

(A) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 150 m

Radius = 0.15 mm

Current density $J=2.8\times10^{7}\ A/m^2$

We need to calculate the current

Using formula of current density

$J = \dfrac{I}{A}$

$I=J\timesA$

Where, J = current density

A = area

I = current

Put the value into the formula

$I=2.8\times10^{7}\times\pi\times(0.15\times10^{-3})^2$

$I=1.97=2.0\ A$

Hence, The current is 2.0 A.

A 63.0 kg astronaut is on a spacewalk when the tether line to the shuttle breaks. the astronaut is able to throw a spare 10.0 kg

Llana [10]

There are other forces at work here nevertheless we will imagine it is just a conservation of momentum exercise. Also the given mass of the astronaut is light astronaut.

The solution for this problem is using the formula: m1V1=m2V2 but we need to get V1:

V1= (m2/m1) V2

V1= (10/63) 12 = 1.9 m/s will be the final speed of the astronaut after throwing the tank.
