Answer:

Weight of the suitcase, W = 220.5 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the suitcase, m = 22.5 kg

Let W is the weight of the suitcase. The weight of an object is equal to the force acting on it due to the gravity. It is given by the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.Mathematically, it is given by :

W = mg

$W=22.5\times 9.8$

W = 220.5 N

So, the weight of the suitcase is 220.5 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A snowboarder travels 150 m down a mountain slope that is 65 degrees above horizontal. What is his vertical displacement?

choli [55]

This can be answered using trigonometric analysis. This sloped path that is 150 m long is the hypotenuse of the triangle. The adjacent angle would then be 65 degrees. Given these:

sin 65 = h / 150

Where: h = vertical displacement = 150 (sin 65)
h = 135.95 meters

Two electrodes, separated by a distance d, in a vacuum are maintained at a constant potential difference. An electron, accelerat

Alja [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, the distance between the electrode is d.

The electron kinetic energy is Ek when the electrode are at distance "d" apart.

So, we want to find the K.E when that are at d/3 distance apart.

K.E = ½mv²

Note: the mass doesn't change, it is only the velocity that change.

Also,

K.E = Work done by the electron

K.E = F × d

K.E = W = ma × d

Let assume that if is constant acceleration

Then, m and a is constant,

Then,

K.E is directly proportional to d

So, as d increase K.E increase and as d decreases K.E decreases.

So,

K.E_1 / d_1 = K.E_2 / d_2

K.E_1 = E_k

d_1 = d

d_2 = d/3

K.E_2 = K.E_1 / d_1 × d_2

K.E_2 = E_k × ⅓d / d

Then,

K.E_2 = ⅓E_k

So, the new kinetic energy is one third of the E_k

Paul and Ivan are riding a tandem bike together. They’re moving at a speed of 5 meters/second. Paul and Ivan each have a mass of

Sonbull [250]

The formula is Ke = 1/2 m v^2
The two of them together have a Ke of mv^2. So you either increase m or v. That's what makes the problem difficult. He can do D or B. We have to choose.

A is no solution. The Ke goes down because Paul loses Ivan's mass.
C is out of the question 3 meters/sec is a big reduction from 5 m/s. So now what do we do about B and D?

The question is what does the third person add. The tandoms I've peddled only allow for 1 or 2 people to add to the motion. So the third person only adds mass. He does not have a v that he is contributing to. To say that he is going 5m/s is true, but he's not contributing anything to that motion.

I pick B, but it is one of those questions that the correctness of it is in the head of the proposer. Be prepared to get it wrong. Argue the point politely if you agree with me, but back off as soon as you have presented your case.
