Give three factors that affected the kinetic energy of the person as she reached the bottom
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

As the person moves down the zip wire, her increase in kinetic energy is less than her decrease in gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Work is done against the air resistance, causing thermal energy to transfer to the surroundings

A cliff diver running 3.60 m/s dives out horizontally from the edge of a vertical cliff and reaches the water below 2.00 s later
mart [117]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The horizontal speed of a cliff diver, v_x=3.6\ m/s

It reaches the water below 2.00 s later, t = 2 s

Let d_x is the distance where the diver hit the water. It can be calculated as follows :

d_x=v_x\times t\\\\=3.6\times 2\\\\=7.2\ m

Let d_y is the height of the cliff. It can be calculated using second equation of motion as follows :

d_y=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\d_y=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times 2^2\\\\=19.6\ m

So, the cliff is 19.6 m high and it will hit the water at a distance of 19.6 m.

Match each type of consequence with its resulting behavior change
ira [324]

Answer:

Janet stops parking in handicapped spaces after she gets a big parking ticket. - Positive Punishment

Peter’s recess is taken away to discourage him from getting into fights with the other children. - Negative Punishment

Ted increases paying his bills on time to avoid a late fee. - Negative Reinforcement

Sally increases the amount of work she completes to receive more pay. - Positive Reinforcement

Explanation:

In operant conditioning, the main principle is that behavior increases or decreases its frequency depending on whether it's reinforced or punished. A behavior can be reinforced by giving something the subject appreciates, like more pay for their work (positive reinforcement) or taking away something they dislike, like late fees (negative reinforcement). Punishments work the same way, you can give something the subject dislikes, like a parking ticket, (positive punishment) or taking away something they like recess for a child. (negative punishment).

Jeff of the Jungle swings on a 7.6-m vine that initially makes an angle of 32 ∘ with the vertical.
shtirl [24]

To solve this problem we will use the trigonometric concepts to find the distance h, which will allow us to find the speed of Jeff and that will finally be the variable that will indicate the total tension, since it is the variable of the centrifugal Force given in the vine at the lowest poing of the swing.

From the image:

cos (32) = \frac{(7.6-h)}{7.6}

h = 1.1548m

When Jeff reaches his lowest point his potential energy is converted to kinetic energy

PE = KE

mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(1.1548)}

v= 4.75m/s

Tension in the string at the lowest point is sum of weight of Jeff and the his centripetal force

T = W+F_c

T = mg + \frac{mv^2}{r}

T = (83)(9.8)+\frac{(9.8)( 4.75)^2}{7.6}

T = 842.49N

Therefore the tension in the vine at the lowest point of the swing is 842.49N

An electron is moving northward in a magnetic field. The magnetic force on the electron is toward the northeast. What is the dir
ira [324]

To solve this problem we will use the vector concept given by the cross product between two perpendicular vectors and which results in a vector perpendicular to these two. From the definition of the Magnetic Force we have to

\vec{F}=q(\vec{v}\times\vec{B})

From the property of cross product the magnetic force should point in the direction perpendicular to the plane containing the vectors v and B.

The direction of velocity is north, and the direction of the magnetic force is northeast.

This cannot be the case, as the direction of magnetic force is not perpendicular to the direction of velocity of the charge.

Therefore the correct option for the direction of the magnetic field is <em>"This situation cannot exist because of the relative orientations of the velocity and force vectors" </em>
