<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D. Longitudinal waves

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one point to another. It involves the transmission of energy from a source to other points.
<em><u>Waves may classified as longitudinal waves or transverse waves depending on the vibration of particles relative to the wave motion.</u></em>
<em><u>Longitudinal waves are waves in which the vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of the wave motion, while transverse wave are types of waves in which the vibration of particles is perpendicular to the wave motion.</u></em>
Longitudinal waves creates regions of compressions and rarefactions, while transverse waves creates regions of maximum displacement called crests and troughs

Serjik [45]

Answer:

1kW = 1000W

600W = 0.6kW

Cost of electric bill = 0.6kWh × 24 × 30 × $0.05

= $21.60

Dwight uses a spring (k = 70 N/m) on a horizontal surface to make a launcher for model cars. The spring is attached to a holder

kramer

Part A)

As we know that spring force is given by

F = kx

here x = stretch in the spring from natural length

So here when spring reaches to its natural length

Force due to spring = 0

so acceleration = 0

Part b)

When spring is compressed from its natural length it will have elastic potential energy in it

so it is given by

$U = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

now we know that there is no friction in it so maximum kinetic energy of the launcher must be equal to the elastic potential energy of the spring

$KE = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

here we have

k = 70 N/m

x = 0.4 m

$KE = \frac{1}{2}(70)(0.4)^2$

$KE = 5.6 J$

Part c)

Now to find the speed we know that

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$5.6 = \frac{1}{2}0.3v^2$

$v = 6.11 m/s$

so its speed is 6.11 m/s

A 1500-kg car accelerates from rest to 25 m/s in 7.0 s. what is the average power delivered by the engine? (1 hp = 746 w)

AVprozaik [17]

The solution for this is:
Work done = force * distance = m*a*d and power = energy/time
The vo=0 and vf = 25 m/s and t=7 sec. This gives...
3.6 m/s^2 as acceleration and d=87.5 meters and thus F=ma= 5400 N.
Energy = 5400*87.5 = 4.7E5 Joules (2 sig. figs) and Power = 67,500 Watts or 90 HP (2 sig. figs again).
