Answer:

The duration, t = 3.53 seconds

Explanation:

The following information is provided:

The equation to calculate the time t is expressed as:

t=(0.25)s^{1/2}...... (1)

Where

s denotes the distance in feet

We are to determine the duration taken by the stone to fall a distance of 200 feet, where s = 200 feet

Substituting the value of s into equation (1) yields:

t=(0.25)\times (200)^{1/2}

t = 3.53 seconds

Thus, the time taken by the object is 3.53 seconds, which provides the required answer.

A trained sea lion slides from rest down a long
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

1.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Begin by sketching a free body diagram.  Three forces are at play on the sea lion: the force of gravity acting downwards, the normal force that is perpendicular to the ramp, and the frictional force parallel to the ramp.

Considering the forces perpendicular to the incline:

∑F = ma

N − mg cos θ = 0

This gives us N = mg cos θ

Next, examining the forces parallel to the incline:

∑F = ma

mg sin θ − Nμ = ma

Substituting for N yields:

mg sin θ − (mg cos θ) μ = ma

g sin θ − g cos θ μ = a

hence a = g (sin θ − μ cos θ)

If we set θ = 23° and μ = 0.26:

a = 9.8 (sin 23 − 0.26 cos 23)

this results in a = 1.48

When rounded to two significant figures, the acceleration of the sea lion is 1.5 m/s².

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that
serg [3582]

Response:

Reasoning:

We will utilize a Gaussian surface that resembles the curved wall of a cylinder, with a radius of 3mm and a length of 1 unit directed parallel to the wire axis.

The charge within this cylinder amounts to 250 x 10⁻⁹ C.

Let E denote the electric field at the curved surface, perpendicular to it.

The total electric flux leaving the curved surface

is calculated as 2π r x 1 x E

or 2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³ E

According to Gauss's law, the total flux is given by the charge within divided by ε (the charge inside the cylinder being 250 x 10⁻⁹C)

equals 250 x 10⁻⁹ / 2.5 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²   (where ε = 2.5 ε₀ = 2.5 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²)

resulting in 11.3 x 10³ weber.

Thus,

2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³ E = 11.3 x 10³

E =  11.3 x 10³ /  2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³

=.599 x 10⁶ N /C.

a 75 kg man is standing at rest on ice while holding a 4kg ball. if the man throws the ball at a velocity of 3.50 m/s forward, w
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

The resulting velocity for him will be 0.187 m/s in reverse direction.

Explanation:

Given:

The mass of the man is, M=75\ kg

The mass of the ball is, m=4\ kg

The initial velocity of the man is, u_m=0\ m/s(rest)

The initial velocity of the ball is, u_b=0\ m/s(rest)

The final velocity of the ball is, v_b=3.50\ m/s

The final velocity of the man is, v_m=?\ m/s

To determine this scenario, we employ the principle of momentum conservation.

This principle states that the total initial momentum equals the total final momentum.

Momentum is calculated by multiplying mass by velocity.

Initial momentum = Initial momentum of the man and the ball

Initial momentum = Mu_m+mu_b=75\times 0+4\times 0 =0\ Nm

Final momentum = Final momentum of the man and the ball

Final momentum = Mv_m+mv_b=75\times v_m+4\times 3.50 =75v_m+14

Hence, the total initial momentum equals the total final momentum

0=75v_m+14\\\\75v_m=-14\\\\v_m=\frac{-14}{75}\\\\v_m=-0.187\ m/s

The negative sign indicates that the man moves backward.

Thus, his final velocity ends up being 0.187 m/s backward.
