In longitudinal waves,the particles of the medium move back and forth along the direction of propagation of waves. In transverse waves,the particles of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of waves.

A ball is thrown straight up. It passes a 2.00-m-high window 7.50 m off the ground on its path up and takes 1.30 s to go past th

OLga [1]

Answer:

u = 13.67 m/s

Explanation:

given,

window height = 2 m

window is 7.5 m off the ground on its path up

total distance from the ground to pass the window = 2 + 7.5 = 9.5 m

time taken to go past the window = 1.30 s

using equation of motion

$S = u t +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$(2+7.5)= u\times 1.3 -0.5\times 9.8\times 1.3^2$

$u\times 1.3 = 9.5 + 8.281$

u = 13.67 m/s

hence, the initial velocity of the ball is equal to 13.67 m/s

zhenek [66]

Answer:

6093.2328 J

Explanation:

For cylindrical rod moment of inertia will be

$I_X=I_Y=\frac{1}{12}m(3r^2+h^2)$

$I_X=I_Y=\frac{1}{12}\times 4(3\times 0.06^2+0.6^2)=0.1236$ $kg -m^2$

we have given time =0.02 sec

Angular speed = $\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2\times 3.14}{0.02}=314\ rad/sec$

Rotational KE = $\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.1236\times 314^2=6093.2328\ J$
