A skydiver is using wind to land on a target that is 120 m away horizontally. The skydiver starts from a height of 70 m and is falling vertically at a constant velocity of 7.0 m/s downward with their parachute open (terminal velocity). A horizontal gust of wind helps push them towards the target. What must be their total speed if they want to just hit their target
Answer:
13.9 m/s.
Explanation:
Since the vertical velocity of the skydiver is constant at v = 7.0 m/s, we find the time, t it takes him to drop from a height of h = 70 m.
So, distance = velocity time
h = vt
t = h/v = 70 m/7 m/s = 10 s
This is also the time it takes him to move horizontally a distance of d = 120 m to the target.
So, his horizontal velocity is v' = distance/time = d/t = 120m/10 s = 12 m/s.
Since both vertical and horizontal velocities are perpendicular, we add them vectorially to obtain the skydivers total speed, V.
So, V = √(v² + v'²)
= √((7.0 m/s)² + (12.0 m/s)'²)
= √(49 m²/s² + 144 m²/s²)
= √(193 m²/s²)
= 13.9 m/s.
The direction of this velocity is Ф = tan⁻¹(v/v')
= tan⁻¹(7 m/s/12 m/s)
= tan⁻¹(0.5833)
= 30.3°
Explain two reasons why astronomers are continually building larger and larger telescopes. Explain two reasons why astronomers are continually building larger and larger telescopes. Larger telescope mirrors have a larger surface area and can therefore collect more light, which makes faint objects bright enough to detect. Also, larger telescope mirrors produce more scattering of light due to diffraction, which contributes to better angular resolution.

Larger telescope mirrors have a larger surface area and can therefore collect more light, which makes faint objects bright enough to detect. Also, larger telescope mirrors produce less scattering of light due to diffraction, which contributes to better angular resolution.
Answer:
* Larger mirrors collect more light and therefore fainter and more distant objects can have enough intensity to be detected
* arger mirrors decreases the angle of dispersion giving a better resolution of the bodies
Explanation:
Refracting telescopes get bigger every day for two main reasons.
* Larger mirrors collect more light and therefore fainter and more distant objects can have enough intensity to be detected
* the diffraction process for circular apertures is given by
θ = 1.22 λ / D
where d is the diameter of the mirror, therefore having larger mirrors decreases the angle of dispersion giving a better resolution of the bodies

Answer:
Option D
2Na + Cl₂ —> 2NaCl
Explanation:
We'll begin by stating the law of conservation of matter.
The law of conservation of matter states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but can be transferred from one form to another.
For an equation to comply with the law of conservation of matter, the number of atoms of each element must be the same on both side of the equation. This simply means that the equation must be balanced!
NOTE: An unbalanced equation simply means matter has been created or destroyed.
Now, we shall determine which equation is balanced. This can be obtained as follow:
For Option A
Na + Cl₂ —> 2NaCl
Reactant:
Na = 1
Cl = 2
Product:
Na = 2
Cl = 2
Thus, the equation is not balanced!
For Option B
2Na + 2Cl₂ —> 2NaCl
Reactant:
Na = 2
Cl = 4
Product:
Na = 2
Cl = 2
Thus, the equation is not balanced!
For Option C
2Na + Cl₂ —> NaCl
Reactant:
Na = 2
Cl = 2
Product:
Na = 1
Cl = 1
Thus, the equation is not balanced!
For Option D
2Na + Cl₂ —> 2NaCl
Reactant:
Na = 2
Cl = 2
Product:
Na = 2
Cl = 2
Thus, the equation is balanced!
From the above illustrations, only option D has a balanced equation. Thus, option D illustrate the law of conservation of matter.

Violet pulls a rake horizontally on a frictionless driveway with a net force of 2.0 N for 5.0 m.
How much kinetic energy does the rake gain?
Answer:
10 J.
Explanation:
Given that,
Net force acting on the rake, F = 2 N
Distance moved by the rake, d = 5 m
We need to find the kinetic energy gained by the rake. We know that,
Kinetic energy = work done
So,
K = F×d
K = 2 N × 5 m
K = 10 J
So, 10 J of kinetic energy is gained by the rake.

Answer: 10 J
The planet Mars is host to five functioning spacecraft, three in orbit about the planet and two on the surface of the planet. Thanks to those spacecraft, we know that the planet Mars has a mass that is 0.11 times that of Earth and a radius that is 0.53 times that of Earth. The acceleration of an object in free-fall near the surface of Mars is most nearly what in terms of the local value of g on Earth
Answer:
0.392
Explanation:
Mm = 0.11Me
Rm = 0.53Re
g = GM / r^2
G = 6.67 * 10^-11
gmars = (G * 0.11Me) / (0.53Re)^2
Recall:
gearth = GMe /Re^2
Hence, gmars in terms of gearth equals
gmars = gearth * (0.11 / 0.53^2)
gmars = gearth * 0.3915984
gmars = 0.392gearth
How fast would an object have to travel on the surface of Jupiter at the equator to keep up with the Sun (that is, so the Sun would appear to remain in the same position in the sky)? Use the facts that the radius of Jupiter is approximately 44,360 miles and its revolution is approximately 10 hours.
Answer:
27872.2 miles per hour
Explanation:
Given that :
Radius of Jupiter is approximately = 44,360 miles
Revolution is 10 hours ;
Jupiter makes one revolution in 10 hours :
Using the relation to obtain the velocity :
V = re
r = radius
w = 2π/T
Hence,
V = r * 2π/ T
V =44360 * 2 * π/10
V = 88720 * π/10
V = 278722.10 / 10
V = 27872.210
V = 27872.2 miles per hour

A body moves on a coordinate line such that it has a position sequalsf(t)equalstsquaredminus4tplus3on the interval 0less than or equalstless than or equals7,with s in meters and t in seconds.a. Find the body's displacement and average velocity for the given time interval.b. Find the body's speed and acceleration at the endpoints of the interval.c. When, if ever, during the interval does the body change direction?
Answer:
A) Δf = - 49 m, B) v (7) = -56 m / s, a = - 8 m / s², C) t = 0.866 s
Explanation:
A) In this exercise ask to find the displacement and the average velocity, give the function of the movement
f (t) = - 4t² +3
and the range of motion 0≤ t ≤ 7
the displacement is
for t = 0
f (0) = 3
for t = 7 s
f (7) = - 4 7² +3
f (7) = -46 m
the total displacement is
Δf = f (7) - f (0)
Δf = -46 - 3
Δf = - 49 m
the average speed is defined as the displacement between the time interval
v = Df / Dt
v = -49 / 7
v = - 7 m / s
B) the speed and acceleration of the end points of the motion
the speed of defined by
v = [tex]\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex]
in this case
v = [tex]\frac{df}{dt}[/tex]
v = -8t
let's calculate
v (7) = -8 7
v (7) = -56 m / s
acceleration is defined by
a = [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}[/tex]
a = - 8 m / s²
acceleration is constant throughout the movement
C) the point where the direction changes.
This point is a point where the position goes from positive to negative, the point f = 0
0 = -4t² +3
t = √¾
t = 0.866 s

A certain brand of hotdog cooker works by applying a potential difference of 144 V across opposite ends of a hot dog and allowing it to cook by means of the thermal energy produced. The current is 10.5 A, and the energy required to cook one hot dog is 60.6 kJ. If the rate at which energy is supplied is unchanged, how long will it take to cook three hot dogs simultaneously
Answer:
120.237 seconds
Explanation:
Given that:
V = 144 V
I = 10.5 A
H = 60.6 kJ
Using the formula:
H = I²RT
From H = I²RT; making T the subject, we have:
[tex]T = \dfrac{H}{I^2R}[/tex]
where;
[tex]R = \dfrac{V}{I}[/tex]
∴
[tex]T = \dfrac{H}{V \times I}[/tex]
[tex]T = \dfrac{60.6 \times 10^3 }{144 \times 10.5}[/tex]
T = 40.079
[tex]T_{neq} = 3T[/tex]
[tex]T_{neq} =3 \times 40.079[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{T_{neq} =120.237 \ sec}[/tex]
You are walking on a moving walkway in the airport. The length of the walkway is 59.1 m. If your velocity relative to the walkway is 2.35 m/s, and the walkway moves with a velocity of 1.85 m/s, how long will it take you to reach the other end of the walkway

A pendulum has a period of 6.98s. Calculate the length of the pendulum. Use
9.8m/s^2 for gravity. *
Answer:
Length, l = 0.126 meters.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Period = 6.98s
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8m/s²
To find the length, l;
[tex] Period, T = 2 \pi \sqrt {lg} [/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] 6.98 = 2*3.142 \sqrt {l*9.8} [/tex]
[tex] 6.98 = 6.284 \sqrt {9.8l} [/tex]
[tex] \frac {6.98}{6.284} = \sqrt {9.8l} [/tex]
[tex] 1.1108 = \sqrt {9.8l} [/tex]
Taking the square of both sides
[tex] 1.1108^{2} = 9.8l [/tex]
[tex] 1.2339 = 9.8l [/tex]
[tex] l = \frac {1.2339}{9.8} [/tex]
Length, l = 0.126m.
Iron has a specific heat of o.45 J/g °C. Removing -1.16 E 2 J of energy lowered the temperature of iron from 89 °C to 26.41 °C. What was the mass of the iron?
Answer:
m = 4.11 grams
Explanation:
Given that,
The specific heat of Iron, c = 0.45 J/g°C

Initial temperature, [tex]T_i=89^{\circ} C[/tex]
Final temperature, [tex]T_f=26.41^{\circ} C[/tex]
We need to find the mass of the iron. We know that the heat removed in terms of specific heat is given by :
[tex]Q=mc\Delta T\\\\m=\dfrac{Q}{c\Delta T}\\\\m=\dfrac{-1.16\times 10^2}{0.45\times (26.41-89)}\\\\m=4.11\ g[/tex]
