The speed of tsunami is a.0.32 km. 

Steps involved  :

The equation s = 356d models the maximum speed that a tsunami can move at. It reads as follows: s = 200 km/h d =?

Let's now change s to s in the equation to determine d: s = 356√d 200 = 356√d √d = 200 ÷ 356 √d = 0.562 Let's square the equation now by squaring both sides: (√d)² = (0.562) ² d = (0.562)² = 0.316 ≈ 0.32

As a result, 0.32 km is roughly the depth (d) of water for a tsunami moving at 200 km/h.

Answer: 4 s

Explanation:

Given

The ball leaves the hand of student with a speed of u=19\ m/s

When the hand is h=2.5\ m above the ground

Using the equation of motion we can write

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Substitute the values

\Rightarrow 2.5=-19t+0.5\times 9.8t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.9t^2-19t-2.5=0\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{19\pm \sqrt{(-19)^2-4\times 4.9\times (-2.5)}}{2\times 19}\\\Rightarrow t=4.0049\quad [\text{Neglecting the negative value of }t]

Thus, the ball will take 4 s to hit the ground.

At the instant the traffic light turns green, an automobile starts with a constant acceleration a of 2.5 m/s2. At the same insta
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

6.96 s

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • u = initial speed of the automobile = 0 m/s
  • a = constant acceleration of the automobile = 2.5\ m/s^2
  • v = constant speed of the truck = 8.7 m/s

<u>Assume:</u>

  • t = time instant at which the automobile overtakes the truck.

At the moment the automobile and the truck both meat each other the distance travel by both vehicles must be the same.

\therefore \textrm{Distance traveled by the automobile }=\textrm{Distance traveled by the truck}\\\Rightarrow ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2=vt\\\Rightarrow (0)t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.5\times t^2=8.7t\\\Rightarrow 1.25t^2=8.7t\\\Rightarrow 1.25t^2-8.7t=0\\\Rightarrow t(1.25t-8.7)=0\\\Rightarrow t = 0\,\,\,or\,\,\, t = \dfrac{8.7}{1.25}\\\Rightarrow t = 0\,\,\,or\,\,\, t = 6.96\\

Since t = 0 s is the initial condition. So, they both meet again at t = 6.96 s such that the automobile overtakes the truck.
