Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

$v_f=v_0+at$ where vf is the final velocity of the dog, v0 is the initial velocity of the dog, a is the acceleration of the dog, and t is the time it takesto reach that final velocity. For us:

0 = 2 + -.43t and

-2 = -.43t so

t = 4.7 seconds

Answer:

it needs to be shaken but make sure you have enough room to shake it safely

Explanation:

To properly operate the laboratory thermometer it needs to be shaken but make sure you have enough room to shake it safely. This done because there is a small bend in the mercury channel of a clinical thermometer that uses mercury. You must shake the thermometer to get the mercury from a previous reading from the thermometer back into the bulb for taking new reading. The bend prevents flow back into the tube so that one can comfortably take reading.

Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracti

liq [111]

Answer:

The speed of water must be expelled at 6.06 m/s

Explanation:

Neglecting any drag effects of the surrounding water we can assume the linear momentum in this case is conserves, that is, the total initial momentum of the octopus and the water kept in it cavity should be equal to the total final linear momentum. That's known as conservation of momentum, mathematically expressed as:

$p_f=p_i$

with Pi the total initial momentum and Pf the final total momentum. The total momentum is the sum of the momentums of the individual objects, in our case the octopus and the mass of water that will be expelled:

$p_{of}+p_{wf}=p_{oi}+p_{wi}$
