Answer:

4.29 millimeters

Explanation:

Bats emit ultrasound waves: in air, ultrasound waves travel at a speed of

$v=343 m/s$

The frequency of the waves emitted by this bat is:

$f=80.0 kHz = 80,000 Hz$

Therefore we can find the wavelength of the wave emitted by the bat by using the relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength:

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{343 m/s}{80,000 Hz}=4.29\cdot 10^{-3} m=4.29 mm$

A boy of mass, m weights 895 N. What is his mass, m?

Ksju [112]

Answer:

91.3 kg

Explanation:

weight = m*g

m: mass

g: gravity = 9.8 or 10 (depends on what your instructor tells you to use)

mass = w/g

895/9.8 = 91.3 KG

Part a)

Centripetal acceleration is defined as

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{R}$

now here we know that

$v = 3m/s$

$R = 2 m$

m = 3 kg

now from above formula we have

$a_c = \frac{3^2}{2}$

$a_c = 4.5 m/s^2$

Part b)

Maximum possible tension in the string is given as

$T = 50 N$

now by force equation we have

$F = ma$

$50 = 3 a$

$a = \frac{50}{3} m/s^2$

now again by above formula

$\frac{v^2}{R} = \frac{50}{3}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{50 \times 2}{3}}$

$v = 5.77 m/s$

Since we are ignoring air resistance which is a non-conservative force, the potential energy will be completely converted into kinetic energy, resulting in a final kinetic energy of $5J$ .
