If your vehicle sinks in water, which window should you kick out when the pressure equalizes?

1 answer:

6 0

<span>If your vehicle sinks in water and assuming that you are the driver, you should kick out the driver's window when the pressure equalizes.

You should't waste your time trying to reach the rear window and you shouldn't break the front window. Therefore, just break the one nearest to you which is the driver's window in this case.</span>

John ( body mass= 65 kg) is taking off for a long jump . Horizontal accerleration ax is 5m/s^2 and vertical acceleration ay is 0

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

(a) The horizontal ground reaction force $F_{g,x}=325\, N$

(b) The vertical ground reaction force $F_{g,y}=696\, N$

(c) The resultant ground reaction force $F_g=768\, N$

Explanation:

Given

John mass , m = 65 kg

Horizontal acceleration , $a_x= 5.0 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Vertical acceleration , $a_y=0.9 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

(a) Using Newton's 2nd law in horizontal direction

$F_{g,x}=ma_x$

=> $F_{g,x}=65\times 5\, N=325\, N$

Thus the horizontal ground reaction force $F_{g,x}=325\, N$

(b) Using Newton's 2nd law in vertical direction

$F_{g,y}-mg=ma_y$

=> $F_{g,y}=mg+ma_y$

=> $F_{g,y}=65\times (9.81+0.9)\, N=696\, N$

Thus the vertical ground reaction force $F_{g,y}=696\, N$

$F_g=(F_{g,x}^{2}+F_{g,y}^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

=> $F_g=(325^{2}+696^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}\, N=768\, N$

=> $F_g=768\, N$

Thus the resultant ground reaction force $F_g=768\, N$

Radio waves of frequency 1.667 GHzGHz arrive at two telescopes that are connected by a computer to perform interferometry. One p

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Explanation:

The frequency of radio waves is 1.667 GHz

One portion of the same wave front travels 1.260 mm farther than the other before the two signals are combined.

There are two conditions for interference either constructive or destructive.

For constructive interference , the path difference is n times of wavelength and for destructive interference, the path difference is (n+1/2) times of wavelength

We can find wavelength in this case as follows :

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{1.667\times 10^9}\\\\\lambda=0.1799\ m$

If we divide path difference by wavelength,

$\dfrac{\delta}{\lambda} =\dfrac{1.26}{0.1799}\\\\\dfrac{\delta}{\lambda} =7\\\\\delta =7\lambda$

It means that the path difference is 7 times of the wavelength. it means the two waves combine constructively and the value of m for the path difference between the two signals is 7.

The amount of energy which is transported past a given area of the medium per unit of time is known as the ________ of the sound

Aliun [14]

The term that describes the amount of energy transported past a given area of the medium per unit time would be "intensity." In addition, the formula for computing intensity would be:

Intensity = Energy / (Time * Area)

It can be implied that the wave would be more intense when its energy transfer rate gets increased and vibration amplitudes also increases.
