Answer:

3 units

Solution:

V=539 cubic units

Square base, with edge a=7 units

Slanted edge length: s=14 units

V=Ab h

Ab=49 square units

539 cubic units = (49 square units) h

h= 11 units

s-h=14 units-11 units

s-h=3 units

Answer:

3 units

Explanation :

Volume of an oblique rectangular prism with a square base = A×B×h

Where h = perpendicular height

From the question, Volume of an oblique rectangular prism with a square base = 539 cubic units

We were asked from the question to find how many units longer the slanted edge length of the prism, 14 is compared to its perpendicular height.

The first step is : Find the perpendicular height

Edges A = 7 units

Edges B = 7 units

Perpendicular height ?

Hence,

539 = 7 × 7 × h

539 = 49h

h = 539 ÷ 49

h = 11 units

Therefore, perpendicular height of the prism = 11 units

To find how many units longer, we would subtract the perpendicular height of the prism from the slanted edge length of the prism

= 14 units - 11 units

= 3 units .

Therefore the slanted edge length of the prism , 14, is 3 units longer compared to its perpendicular height.

Two objects are moving in the xy-plane. Object A has a mass of 3.2 kg and has a velocity = (2.3 m/s)i+ (4.2 m/s)j and object B h
prisoha [69]

The total momentum of the system is 2.14i + 21.27j.

A vector quantity with both direction and magnitude is momentum. Kg m/s (kilogram meter per second) or N s serve as its units (newton second).

The total starting momentum of a system must match the entire final momentum of the system since momentum is a conserved quantity. The overall momentum does not change.

The total momentum of the system is defined as follows:

As momentum is vector quantity and vectors can be added, so, the momentum of a system is given by

P = Pₓ + P'

where Pₓ is the x-component of momentum

P' is the y-component of the momentum

Also, we know that

P=mv

where m is mass

v is velocity

Thus,

P = Pₓ + P'

P = m₁vₓ + m₂v'

vₓ is the x-component of the velocity

v' is the y- component of the velocity

Given, m₁= 3.2kg

m₂ = 2.9kg

Now,

P = 3.2 (2.3i + 4.2j) + 2.9 (-1.8i +2.7j)

P = (7.36i + 13.44j) + (-5.22i + 7.83j)

P = 2.14i + 21.27j

Thus, the total momentum of the given system is 2.14i + 21.27j.

A satellite orbits the earth a distance of 1.50 × 107 m above the planet's surface and takes 8.65 hours for each revolution abou
kupik [55]

Answer:

The acceleration of the satellite is 0.87 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The acceleration in a circular motion is defined as:

a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}  (1)

Where a is the centripetal acceleration, v the velocity and r is the radius.

The equation of the orbital velocity is defined as

v = \frac{2 \pi r}{T} (2)

Where r is the radius and T is the period

For this particular case, the radius will be the sum of the high of the satellite (1.50x10^{7} m) and the Earth radius (6.38x10^{6} m) :

r = 1.50x10^{7} m+6.38x10^{6}m

r = 21.38x10^{6}m

Then, equation 2 can be used:

T = 8.65 hrs \cdot \frac{3600 s}{1hrs} ⇒ 31140 s

v = \frac{2 \pi (21.38x10^{6}m)}{31140s}

v = 4313 m/s

Finally equation 1 can be used:

a = \frac{(4313m/s)^{2}}{21.38x10^{6}m}    

a = 0.87 m/s^{2}

Hence, the acceleration of the satellite is 0.87 m/s^{2}

A child is swinging back and forth with a constant period and amplitude. Somewhere in front of the child, a stationary horn is e
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

  We shall apply concept of Doppler's effect of apparent frequency to this problem . Here observer is moving sometimes towards and sometimes away from the source . When observer moves towards the source , apparent frequency is more than real frequency and when the observer moves away from the source , apparent frequency is less than real frequency . The apparent frequency depends upon velocity of observer . The formula for apparent frequency when observer is going away is as follows .

f = f₀ ( V - v₀ ) / V , f is apparent , f₀ is real frequency , V is velocity of sound and v is velocity of observer .

f will be lowest when v₀ is highest .

velocity of observer is highest when he is at the equilibrium position or at middle point .

So apparent frequency is lowest when observer is at the middle point and going away from the source  while swinging to and from before the source of sound .
