An ice rescue team pulls a stranded hiker off a frozen lake by throwing him a rope and pulling him horizontally across the essen

tially frictionless ice with a constant force. The hiker weighs 1040 N, and accelerates across the ice at 1.10 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the tension in the rope? (Ignore the mass of the rope.)

Answer:T=116.84 N

Explanation:

Given

Weight of hiker =1040 N

acceleration a=1.1 m/s^2

Force exerted by Rope is equal to Tension in the rope

F_{net}=T=ma_{net}

T=\frac{1040}{g}\times 1.1

T=116.84 N

The question is incomplete. Here is the entire question.

A jetboat is drifting with a speed of 5.0m/s when the driver turns on the motor. The motor runs for 6.0s causing a constant leftward acceleration of magnitude 4.0m/s². What is the displacement of the boat over the 6.0 seconds time interval?

Answer: Δx = - 42m

Explanation: The jetboat is moving with an acceleration during the time interval, so it is a <u>linear</u> <u>motion</u> <u>with</u> <u>constant</u> <u>acceleration</u>.

For this "type" of motion, displacement (Δx) can be determined by:

\Delta x = v_{i}.t + \frac{a}{2}.t^{2}

v_{i} is the initial velocity

a is acceleration and can be positive or negative, according to the referential.

For Referential, let's assume rightward is positive.

Calculating displacement:

\Delta x = 5(6) - \frac{4}{2}.6^{2}

\Delta x = 30 - 2.36

\Delta x = - 42

Displacement of the boat for t=6.0s interval is \Delta x = - 42m, i.e., 42 m to the left.

Does the surrounding air become warm or cool when vapour phase of H2O condenses? Explain
mel-nik [20]
The surrounding air will become warm when water vapor condenses. The vapors when become water will give away latent heat they have, we know that latent heat is required for the object to change states, so, the latent heat the water vapor had when it became water vapor from water will be given out when it again becomes water.

To compare the hearing capacities of 5 of his friends, Ravi designs a simple experiment. He places a CD player at the end of a l
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

A) having each person listen to just 1 song instead of 5.

Explanation:

Ravi could accurately use the outcome to compare the hearing capacities of his friends by this experiment if appropriate precautions are observed.

Playing 5 well known songs simultaneously could result to the interference of sounds when each participant moves away from the player. Which could naturally cause the variation in volume of the songs played with respect to the increasing distance.

Therefore, the reliability of the result from this experiment can be increased if each person listen to just 1 song instead of 5 at a predetermined volume. Each participant would be able to focus on hearing a song during the experiment.

A child of mass 27 kg swings at the end of an elastic cord. At the bottom of the swing, the child's velocity is horizontal, and
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum is 794.11 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of child = 27 kg

Speed of child in horizontal = 10 m/s

Length = 3.40 m

There is a rate of change of the perpendicular component of momentum.

Centripetal force acts always towards the center.

We need to calculate the magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum

Using formula of momentum

\dfrac{dp}{dt}=F

\dfrac{dP}{dt}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{dP}{dt}=\dfrac{27\times10^2}{3.40}

\dfrac{dP}{dt}=794.11\ N

Hence, The magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum is 794.11 N.
