A dog of mass 10 kg sits on a skateboard of mass 2 kg that is initially traveling south at 2 m/s. The dog jumps off with a veloc

ity of 1 m/s north rela-tive to the ground. Which of the following is the best estimate of the velocity of the skateboard immediately after the dog has jumped?
(A) 1 m/s north(B) 1 m/s south(C) 3 m/s south (D) 7 m/s south(E) 17 m/s south

Answer:

17 m/s south

Explanation:

m_1 Mass of the dog = 10 kg

m_2 Mass of skateboard = 2 kg

v = Combined velocity = 2 m/s

u_1 Velocity of the dog = 1 m/s

u_2 Velocity of skateboard

In this scenario, linear momentum is conserved

(m_1+m_2)v+m_1u_1+m_2u_2=0\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\dfrac{(m_1+m_2)v+m_1u_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\dfrac{(10+2)2+10\times 1}{2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-17\ m/s

The speed of the skateboard post-dog jump will be 17 m/s south, considering north as the positive direction

kicyunya [3294]
Fire extinguishers are commonly colored red, which aligns with the red of fire trucks and the general association of red with emergencies. Although there is no official standard, altering the colors could lead to confusion, potentially endangering lives. Therefore, it seems that red will likely remain the color of fire extinguishers for the foreseeable future.

A sinusoidal electromagnetic wave of frequency 6.10×1014hz travels in vacuum in the +x direction. the magnetic field is parallel
Yuliya22 [3333]
Part a) The connection between the electric field and the magnetic field in an electromagnetic wave is
E=cB
where
E signifies the strength of the electric field
B indicates the strength of the magnetic field
c represents the speed of light
Using the equation, we determine:
E=cB=(3 \cdot 10^8 m/s)(5.80 \cdot 10^{-4} T)=1.74 \cdot 10^5 N/C

Part b) The text does not clarify the orientation of the magnetic field on the y-axis: I speculate it points in the y+ direction.
The direction of the electric field can be established using the right-hand rule, which states:
- the index finger shows the direction of E
- the middle finger indicates the orientation of B
- the thumb reveals the propagation direction of the wave
Because the wave propagates in the x+ direction, and the magnetic field in the y+ direction, we conclude that the electric field direction (index finger) must be z-.

Definamos h como la distancia que hay desde el borde del pozo hasta la superficie del agua (en metros).

Consideremos la gravedad g como 9.8 m/s² y despreciemos la resistencia del aire.

La velocidad inicial vertical del guijarro es nula.
Ya que el guijarro impacta el agua tras 1.5 segundos, entonces:
h = 0.5 * (9.8 m/s²) * (1.5 s)² = 11.025 m

Resultado: 11.025 m
