A football field lies so one endzone is to the east and one is to the west. A running back gets the ball and starts running 20o

north of east. After running 10 meters, he sees open field and starts running straight east for 60 meters at which point a safety closes in on him. He cuts so he is running 35o east of south. After running another 20 meters he gets in the end zone. Ultimately we want to know what is the vector that points from where he started to where he scored.

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.

Ronnie kicks a playground ball with an initial velocity of 16 m/s at an angle of 40° relative to the ground. What is the approxi

Softa [3030]

The calculation for the horizontal component is performed as follows:
Vhorizontal = V · cos(angle)

For your instance, Vhorizontal = 16 · cos(40) equates to 12.3 m/s

Conclusion: 12.3 m/s

A champion athlete can produce one horsepower (746 W) for a short period of time. The number of 16-cm-high steps a 70-kg athlete

Sav [3153]

Answer:

407 steps

Explanation:

Based on the question,

P = mgh/t........... Equation 1

Where P stands for power, m is mass, g denotes gravity, h is height, and t represents time.

Rearranging the equation to solve for h, we have:

h = Pt/mg............. Equation 2

Providing values: P = 746 W, t = 1 minute = 60 seconds, m = 70 kg.

Given constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

By substituting into equation 2

h = 746(60)/(70×9.8)

h = 44760/686

h = 65.25 m

h = 6525 cm

Calculating number of steps: 6525/16

The resulting number of steps = 407 steps

d. The force is doubled and the object’s mass is halved? 18. ||| A man pulling an empty wagon causes it to accelerate at 1.4 m/s

Yuliya22 [3333]

Assuming that the mass of the empty wagon is "M," according to Newton's second law, we can derive the following relationships. Given that the empty wagon accelerates at 1.4 m/s², we proceed with this information. If a child weighing three times the mass of the wagon is on it, we can establish the relevant equations.
