Imma guess A! Idk if it’s 100% correct tho so I’d check that!
There is one mistake in the question.The Correct question is here
A cat falls from a tree (with zero initial velocity) at time t = 0. How far does the cat fall between t = 1/2 and t = 1 s? Use Galileo's formula v(t) = −9.8t m/s.
Answer:
y(1s) - y(1/2s) = - 3.675 m
The cat falls 3.675 m between time 1/2 s and 1 s.
Explanation:
Given data
time=1/2 sec to 1 sec
v(t)=-9.8t m/s
To find
Distance
Solution
As the acceleration as first derivative of velocity with respect to time
So
acceleration(-g)= dv/dt
Solve it
dv = a dt
dv = -g dt
v - v₀ = -gt
v= dy/dt
dy = v dt
dy = ( v₀ - gt ) dt
y(1s) - y(1/2s) = ( v₀ ) ( 1 - 1/2 ) - ( g/2 )[ ( t1)² -( t1/2s )² ]
y(1s) - y(1/2s) = ( - 9.8/2 ) [ ( 1 )² - ( 1/2 )² ]
y1s - y1/2s = ( - 4.9 m/s² ) ( 3/4 s² )
y(1s) - y(1/2s) = - 3.675 m
The cat falls 3.675 m between time 1/2 s and 1 s.
Answer
22.5 m/s
Explanation
We shall use the trigonometric ratio cosine to find the horizontal component.
cos = adjacent/hypotenuse
Adjacent is the horizontal and hypotenuse is the fly speed.
cos 30° = horizontal / 26
horizontal velocity = 26 × cos 30°
= 26 × 0.866
= 22.5166
= 22.5 m/s
I'll be happy to solve the problem using the information that
you gave in the question, but I have to tell you that this wave
is not infrared light.
If it was a wave of infrared, then its speed would be close
to 300,000,000 m/s, not 6 m/s, and its wavelength would be
less than 0.001 meter, not 12 meters.
For the wave you described . . .
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
= (6 m/s) / (12 m)
= 0.5 / sec
= 0.5 Hz .
(If it were an infrared wave, then its frequency would be
greater than 300,000,000,000 Hz.)
