Waldo gets stopped by the police, and the police officer tells Waldo that she caught him on radar doing 50 miles per hour in a 4

0 miles per hour zone.
Waldo responds, " I was traveling 50 miles per hour. I sat at home for 1 hour and then drove for 1 hour before you stopped me. I traveled 50 miles total in that second hour. So, my speed was 25 miles per hour. That's well under the speed limit."
Waldo is wrong, per speeding laws, and does receive a speeding ticket. Explain how Waldo came up with a speed of 25 miles per hour in multiple sentences.

Answer:

He calculated his average speed.

Explanation:

Waldo calculated an average of his speed in 2 hours rather than his speed whilst driving which means instead of doing 50/1 hour = 50 mph, he did 50/2hours which is how he got 25 mph. Hope this helps!

50/2 hours=25
I think this is correct!

(4%) Problem 9: A mass is connected to a spring and is allowed to move horizontally. The mass is at a position L when the spring
skad [1K]

Answer:

a) Acceleration is zero , c)   Speed ​​is cero

Explanation:

a) the equation that governs the simple harmonic motion is

         x = A cos (wt +φφ)

Where A is the amplitude of the movement, w is the angular velocity and φ the initial phase determined by the initial condition

Body acceleration is

         a = d²x / dt²

Let's look for the derivatives

         dx / dt = - A w sin (wt + φ)

         a = d²x / dt² = - A w² cos (wt + φ)

In the instant when it is not stretched x = 0

As the spring is released at maximum elongation, φ = 0

            0 = A cos wt

            Cos wt = 0         wt = π / 2

Acceleration is valid for this angle

           a = -A w² cos π/2 = 0

Acceleration is zero

b)

c) When the spring is compressed x = A

Speed ​​is

             v = dx / dt

             v = - A w sin wt

We look for time

            A = A cos wt

            cos wt = 1         wt = 0, π

For this time the speedy vouchers

            v = -A w sin 0 = 0

Speed ​​is cero

5. Sarah is standing 32.0 m away from Jason. If Sarah throws a snowball at a 45 degree
padilas [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

If air resistance is ignored and assume UP and Toward Jason are the positive directions.

horizontal analysis

d = (vx₀)t

t = d/vx₀

horizontal analysis

0 = vy₀t + ½gt²

0 = vy₀(d/vx₀)+ ½g(d/vx₀)²

as vy₀ = v₀sin45 and vx₀ = v₀cos45 and are equal.

0 = d + ½g(d²/v₀²cos²45)

-d = ½g(d²/v₀²cos²45)

-dv₀² = ½g(d²/cos²45)

   v₀² = -½g(d/cos²45)

   v₀² = -½(-9.81(32.0/cos²45)

   v₀² = 313.92

   v₀ = 17.717787...

   v₀ = 17.7 m/s

A sinusoidal electromagnetic wave from a radio station passes perpendicularly through an open window that has area 0.320 m2. at
AlexFokin [52]
Remember, half of the energy in an EM wave is in the E field, the rest is in the B field. Thus, multiply E field energy by 2.
To calculate the energy of the wave you must then use the following equation: W = A*t*c*2*(1/2*E^2*Eo). Where, A = Area, t = time, c = speed of light (which is a constant), E = Electric field, E0 = vacuum permittivity (8.85*10^-12 Nm^2/C^2). Substituting W =(0.320)*(26)*(3*10^8)*(2)*((1/2)*(1.95*10^-2)^2*(8.854*10^-12)) = 8.40*10^-6 J
