Yes, you're right, it's a glow stick!

a glow stick has two substances in it, which are separated from each other and breaking of the glow stick makes them combine and release energy in the form of a light. This process is also known as chemiluminescence. They don't require any other energy sources!

A family car has a mass of 1400 kg. In an accident it hits a wall and goes from a speed of 27 m/s to a standstill in 1.5 seconds

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

The force has been reduced by 8018 N

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on the car during the crash is equal to the product of the force exerted and the duration of the collision, and it is also equal to the change in momentum of the car. So we can write:

$F\Delta t = m\Delta v$

where:

F is the force exerted on the car

$\Delta t$ is the duration of the collision

m = 1400 kg is the mass of the car

$\Delta v=-27 m/s$ is the change in velocity of the car

We can re-write the equation as

$F=\frac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

In the 1st collision, the time is 1.5 seconds, so the force is

$F_1=\frac{(1400)(-27)}{1.5}=-25,200 N$

In the 2nd collision, the time is increased to 2.2 seconds, so the force is

$F_2=\frac{(1400)(-27)}{2.2}=-17,182 N$

Therefore, the force has been reduced by:

$F_2-F_1=-17,182-(-25,200)=8018 N$

Describe a situation when you might travel at a high velocity bit with low acceleration

iren [92.7K]

I am sitting in my seat.
I am listening to my mp3 and reading my book.
My eyes are getting heavy. They start to close.
I try to stay awake, but it's no use.
I am so warm and comfortable and sleepy,
and I have just finished my dinner.
Finally I can't help it. Resistance is futile.
I give up, and fall deep asleep.
My head rests back against my soft, comfy seat.

My seat is in row 26 on the airplane I'm flying in
to visit my grandmother on the coast.
We are cruising at 560 miles an hour, bearing 280°,
at flight level 320 .
The temperature outside my window is -60°F .

What is the speed of sound for a noise that travels 2km in 5.8s?

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the rate at which an object covers a particular distance. So the formula for determining speed is given as the ratio of distance to time taken for covering that distance.

Speed = Distance/Time

As here the distance is given in km units and time in s units, so the units of any one parameter should be changed. Since we know that speed of sound is always about 300 m/s. So it is better to convert the unit of distance from km to m.

Hence, now the distance traveled by the noise is 2000 m and time taken is 5.8 s.

So the speed of noise = Distance/Time = 2000/5.8=345 m/s.

Thus, the speed of noise is slightly greater than the speed of sound and it is found to be 345 m/s.

The loudness of a sound is the waves amplitude <br><br><br><br> True or false

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

true i think

Explanation:

The amplitude of a sound wave determines its loudness or volume. A larger amplitude means a louder sound, and a smaller amplitude means a softer sound. In Figure 10.2 sound C is louder than sound B. The vibration of a source sets the amplitude of a wave.
