Why Don't Birds Get Electrocuted When They Land on Electric Wires?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There is a thick layer of rubber coating on the wires.

Explanation:

This isn't just the case with birds, your headphones, if you notice closely have a layer of rubber coating as well, to protect you from accidentally touching the wires inside and hurting yourself.

Which skateboarder has greater momentum?
a) Skateboarder A: mass = 60 kg; velocity = 1.5 m/s
b) Skateboarder B: mass = 50 kg; velocity = 2.0 m/s

Answers

Answer:

skateboard b

Explanation:

p=mv

skateboard a

p=(60kg)(1.5m/s)=90kg*m/s

skateboard b

p=(50kg)(2m/s)=100kg*m/s

Skateboarder B has the greater momentum because the momentum of A is 90 kg m/s and the momentum of B is 100 kg m/s so B has the greater momentum.

What is momentum?

Momentum is the result of a particle's mass and velocity. Being a vector quantity, momentum possesses both magnitude and direction. According to Isaac Newton's second equation of motion, the force applied on a particle is equal to the time rate of change of momentum. Check out Newton's laws of motion.

According to Newton's second law, if a particle is subjected to a constant force for a specific amount of time, the result of the force and time (referred to as the impulse) is equal to the change in momentum. On the other hand, a particle's momentum represents the length of time needed for a consistent force to bring it to rest.

According to the question,

For Skateboarder A :

momentum = 60 × 1.5

momentum = 90 kg m/s

For Skateboarder B :

momentum = 50 × 2

momentum = 100 kg m/s.

Hence, B has greater momentum than A.

The definition of P.E which stands for physical education is instruction that ranges in many areas to improve performance and management in athletic games. The definition of sports is an activity that requires skill and physical exertion of a team or an individual competing against others for fun or entertainment. I believe these are similar because without physical education kids cannot excel in their sports. P.E will help prepare them for this.However they are different because sports are solely focused on one topic and try to perfect that, physical education gives you many different things to work on.

Explanation:

Chemical reactions involves the formation and breaking of bonds by the combination of atoms in a system.

Chemical reactions always involve changes in energy which can be exothermic or endothermic in nature. When bonds are broken energy is always released, bond dissociation is an exothermic process. When bonds are formed, energy is used up and this process is an endothermic one.

Answers

Answer:

Because radiation does not require material medium for its propagation.

Explanation:

Radiation is one of the types of modes of heat transfer that takes place majorly in gases. Heat energy can be transferred through gases by radiation without heating up the intervening medium. Even, if the available molecules of gases are evacuated, the heat energy would propagate.

Thus, student's hands were not heated by convection since convection is a mode where material medium is required for propagation of heat energy.

As the object is moved across the table, it has kinetic energy. The combination of both energy is known as thermal energy. An increase in both energy leads to increase in the thermal energy of a given object.

If Juan upgrades from a sports car to a large truck, what will happen to the
force needed to keep the truck going at the same speed? Use this
sentence frame

Answers

Answer:

The force will have to increase

Explanation:

Since Juan has upgraded from a sports car to a large truck, based on Newton's second law of motion, the force needed to keep the truck going at the same speed will have to increase.

 According to Newton's second law "the force on an object is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration".

       Force  = mass x acceleration

A truck has a larger mass compared to a sports car.

By virtue of this, to make sure both automobiles attain the same speed, the force powering them to accelerate must be the same.

 Therefore, the force from the engine must increase.

The net force acting on a Cessna 172 airplane has a magnitude of 1900 N and points in the positive x direction. If the plane has a mass of 860 kg, what is its acceleration?

Answers

Answer: 10.05m/s²

Explanation:

Force acting on the plane has a magnitude of 1900N.

Mass of plane = 860kg

We then calculate the acceleration which will be:

= 1900 / 860

= 2.21 m/s²

Since acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s², then the net acceleration will be:

= ✓(2.21² + 9.8²)

= ✓(4.88 + 96.04)

=✓100.92

= 10.05m/s²

The wavelength of a wave is 12 cm and its frequency is 120 Hz. What is its speed?

Answers

Frequency = speed / wavelength
Speed = frequency / wavelength
Speed= 120 / 12
Speed = 10 cm / s

The speed of the wave is 14.4 m/s.

What is speed?

Speed is the rate of change of distance.

To calculate the speed of the wave, we apply the formula below.

Formula:

v = λf............. Equation 1

Where:

v = speed of the waveλ = wavelength of the wavef = frequency of the wave.

From the question,

Given:

λ = 12 cm = 0.12 mf = 120 Hz.

Substitute these values into equation 1

v = 0.12(120)v = 14.4 m/s

Hence, the speed of the wave is 14.4 m/s.

Two identical spheres (of equal mass) a distance of 10 meters apart exert a force of gravity of 0.00050 N on each other. What are their masses?

Answers

Answer:

The gravitational force between two objects is written as:

F = G*m1*m2/r^2

Where:

G = 6.67*10^(-11) m^3/kg*s

m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects.

r is the distance between the objects.

In this case, we know that:

F = 0.0005 N

r = 10m

and because the two spheres are identical, we have that:

m1 = m2 = M

then we have the equation:

0.0005 N = (6.67*10^(-11) m^3/kg*s)*(M^2/(10m)^2)

0.0005 N*(10m)^2/(6.67*10^(-11) m^3/kg*s) = M^2

√( 0.0005 N*(10m)^2/(6.67*10^(-11) m^3/kg*s) ) = M = 27,379.3 kg

Explanation:

Mr. Turner is driving through downtown Houston at 35 MPH (15.56 m/s). This is above the posted speed limit and there are cars parked alongside the curb in the lane next to Mr. Turner. Of course, a large delivery truck ahead looks like it is parked and driverless, but the driver's door swings open into the lane ahead of Mr. Turner. Mr. Turner's reaction time is 3/4th's of a second and the stopping distance at his speed is 1.7 meters. The driver exiting the delivery truck is 13.3 meters ahead. Can Mr. Turner stop in time? What is the vehicle's acceleration when the brakes are applied?


How far will the vehicle travel before Mr. Turner engages the brake?


(I need someone to explain this to me)

Answers

Answer:

Mr. Turner will not be able to stop in time.

a = - 71.2 m/s²

s₁ = 11.67 m

Explanation:

Since, Mr. Turner is driving at 45.56 m/s and his reaction time for applying brakes is 3/4th of a second. So, the distance covered by car in this time will be:

s₁ = vt

where,

s₁ = distance covered by car before applying brakes = ?

v = speed of car = 15.56 m/s

t = reaction time = 3/4th of second = 0.75 s

Therefore,

s₁ = (15.56 m/s)(0.75 s)

s₁ = 11.67 m

and the distance required for the car to stop after applying brakes is:

s₂ = 1.7 m

So, the total distance traveled by car before stopping will be:

s = s₁ + s₂

s = 11.67 m 1.7 m

s =  13.37 m

since, the driver was 13.3 m ahead.

Therefore, Mr. Turner will not be able to stop in time.

To find the deceleration of Mr. Turner after applying brakes we use 3rd equation of motion:

2as₂ = Vf² - Vi²

where,

a = deceleration = ?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s

Vi = Initial velocity = 15.56 m/s

Therefore,

2a(1.7 m) = (0 m/s)² - (15.56 m/s)²

a = - (242.1136 m²/s²)/3.4 m

a = - 71.2 m/s²
