Conservation of linear momentum:

m*v inital = m*v final

0.06*0.7 + 0.03*0 = 0.06*(-0.2) + 0.03*v

(my algebra, or use ur calculator: 0.06*.07=0.042, etc ... or ur teacher may think you got some help)

0.06*(0.7+0.2)=0.03*v, v = 0.06*0.9/0.03=1.8 m/s

Answer 1.8 m/s (positive, to the right).

Human muscles have an efficiency of about __________. A. 9 to 17% B. 18 to 26% C. 27 to 35% D. 36 to 44%
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The correct answer would be B. 18 to 26%.

The muscle efficiency is calculated by dividing mechanical work output by total metabolic cost.

It is estimated that human muscles have an efficiency of about 18% to 26%.

The efficiency is low because most of the energy is lost when food energy is converted into ATP (adenosine triphophate).

In addition, there is second energy loss when energy in the form of ATP is converted into the mechanical energy such as rowing, cycling et cetera.

Suppose your friend claims to have discovered a mysterious force in nature that acts on all particles in some region of space. H
kirill [66]

Answer:

             U = 1 / r²

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask for potential energy giving the expression of force, since these two quantities are related

             

         F = - dU / dr

this derivative is a gradient, that is, a directional derivative, so we must have

          dU = - F. dr

the esxresion for strength is

         F = B / r³

let's replace

          ∫ dU = - ∫ B / r³  dr

in this case the force and the displacement are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

let's evaluate the integrals

            U - Uo = -B (- / 2r² + 1 / 2r₀²)

To complete the calculation we must fix the energy at a point, in general the most common choice is to make the potential energy zero (Uo = 0) for when the distance is infinite (r = ∞)

             U = B / 2r²

we substitute the value of B = 2

             U = 1 / r²

Dawn and Aram have stretched a slinky between them and begin experimenting with waves. As the frequency of the waves is doubled
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

halved

Explanation:

The velocity of the a wave is obtained by multiplying the frequency and wavelength.

v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{v}{\lambda}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{v}{f}

Where

v = Velocity

f = Frequency

\lambda = Wavelength

The velocity here is constant. So, if the frequency is doubled the wavelength is halved.

ollegr [7]
The displacement is the shortest distance between two points, which is 546.41. The displacement for both is 546.41 meters

Average velocity of X = (200 + 200 + 200) / 30
Average velocity of X = 20 m/s

Average velocity of Y = 546.41 / 30 = 18.2 m/s
