777dan777 [17]1 year ago
5 0

Answer:

330 m/s

Explanation:

The sound wave has to travel TO the cliff AND back = 2 * 49.5 = 99 m

magnitude of velocity =  distance / time = 99m / .3 s = 330 m/s

A helicopter is ascending vertically. a passenger accidentally drops her wallet out the sides of the helicopter when it is 160 m
Advocard [28]

Answer:

(E)56.0 m/s

Explanation:

Height =h=-160 m

Because the wallet moving in downward direction

Time=t=7 s

Final speed of wallet=v=0

We have to find the speed of helicopter ascending  at the moment when the passenger let go of the wallet.

v^2-u^2=2gh

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Substitute the values

0-u^2=2(-160)\times 9.8

u^2=3136

u=\sqrt{3136}=56m/s

Option (E) is true

A warehouse worker is pushing a 90.0-kg crate with a horizontal force of 282 N at a speed of v = 0.850 m/s across the warehouse
Elanso [62]

Answer:

v_{f} = 0.51 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

We apply Newton's second law at the crate :

∑F = m*a (Formula 1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

Data:

m=90kg :  crate mass

F= 282 N

μk =0.351 :coefficient of kinetic friction

g = 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

Crate weight  (W)

W= m*g

W= 90kg*9.8 m/s²

W= 882 N

Friction force : Ff

Ff= μk*N Formula (2)   

μk: coefficient of kinetic friction

N : Normal force (N)  

Problem development

We apply the formula (1)

∑Fy = m*ay    , ay=0

N-W = 0

N = W

N = 882 N

We replace the  data in the formula (2)

Ff= μk*N  = 0.351* 882 N

Ff=  309.58 N

We apply the formula (1) in x direction:

∑Fx = m*ax    , ax=0

282 N - 309.58 N = 90*a  

a=  (282 N - 309.58 N ) / (90)

a= - 0.306 m/s²

Kinematics of the crate

Because the crate moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formula :

vf²=v₀²+2*a*d Formula (3)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s²

Data

v₀ = 0.850 m/s

d = 0.75 m

a= - 0.306 m/s²

We replace the  data in the formula (3)

vf²=(0.850)²+(2)( - 0.306 )(0.75 )

v_{f} = \sqrt{(0.850)^{2} +(2)( - 0.306 )(0.75 )}

v_{f} = 0.51 \frac{m}{s}

A car is up on a hydraulic lift at a garage. The wheels are free to rotate, and the drive wheels are rotating with a constant an
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Wheels are rotating with constant angular velocity let say \omega

Presence of constant angular velocity show that there is no angular acceleration thus there is no tangential acceleration.

But any particle on the rim will experience a constant acceleration towards center called centripetal acceleration.

(a) yes, there will be tangential velocity which is given by

v=r\cdot \omega

where r=radial distance from center

(b)tangential acceleration

there would be no tangential acceleration as velocity is constant

(c)centripetal acceleration

Yes, there will be centripetal acceleration given by

a_c=\omega ^2\times r

Light from a 560 nm monochromatic source is incident upon the surface of fused quartz (n=1. 56) at an angle of 60°. what is the
ankoles [38]

The angle of reflection is "60°".

Here we apply the law of the concept of reflection then we get the final answer easily.

The angle of incident = angle of reflection

Then, the Angle of the incident =60°

What is reflection?

  • Reflection is the phenomenon of light rays returning to the source after striking an obstruction.
  • It resembles the way a ball bounces when we toss it on a hard surface.
  • Some of the light rays that strike an item are reflected, some of them travel through it, and the remainder are absorbed by the object.
  • The given values are:Light from a monochromatic source,= 560 nm
  • The angle of incidence,= 60°
  • The surface of fused quartz (n),= 1.56
  • When a light ray does exist on a flat surface, the law or idea of reflection should apply since it includes both the reflected and "normal" light rays at the mirror surface.
  • According to the above law,Angle of incident = angle of reflection
  • Then, Angle of incident =60°.
