That's true for electromagnetic radiation.

(Not for some other kinds though, like alpha radiation and beta radiation. Those are particles, not waves at all.)

A roofer drops a nail that hits the ground traveling at 26 m/s. How fast was the nail traveling 1 second before it hits the grou
ELEN [110]
This problem can be solved using a kinematic equation. For this case, the following equation is useful:

v_final = v_initial + at

where,
v_final = final velocity of the nail
v_initial = initial velocity of the nail
a = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2
t = time 

First, we determine the time it takes for the nail to hit the ground. We know that the initial velocity is 0 m/s since the nail was only dropped. It has a final velocity of 26 m/s. We substitute these values to the equation and solve for t:

26 = 0 + 9.8*t
t = 26/9.8 = 2.6531 s

The problem asks the velocity of the nail at t = 1 second. We then subtract 1 second from the total time 2.6531 with v_final as unknown.

v_final = 0 + 9.8(2.6531-1) = 16.2004 m/s.

Thus, the nail was traveling at a speed of 16. 2004 m/s, 1 second before it hit the ground.

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN HOW TO DO THIS?!?!
Rzqust [24]
Both cars are canceling out the energy of each other. The energy that is left over because one car has a bigger kinetic energy is the energy that is going to move BOTH the cars.

First Car : <em>0.5 * 2000kg * 3m/s^2 = 10.24 KJ</em>

Second Car :<em> 0.5 * 2000kg * 2m/s^2 = 4 KJ</em>

Leftover Energy : <em>10.24 KJ - 4 KJ = 6.24 KJ
</em>
Movement of BOTH cars :<em /><em>
6.24 = 4000kg * v^2
</em>v =  √(6.24 / 4000) =0.04 m/s = 4 cm/s

A weather balloon is inflated to a volume of 26.8 LL at a pressure of 744 mmHgmmHg and a temperature of 31.2 ∘C∘C. The balloon r
elena-s [515]

Answer:

43.96 L

Explanation:

We are given that

V_1=26.8 L

P_1=744mm Hg

T_1=31.2^{\circ} C=31.2+273=304.2K

P_2=385mmHg

T_2=-14.8^{\circ}=273-14.8=258.2K

We know that

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

V_2=\frac{P_1V_1T_2}{P_2T_1}

Substitute the values

V_2=\frac{744\times 26.8\times 258.2}{385\times 304.2}

V_2=43.96 L

Hence, the volume of balloon at -14.8 degree Celsius=43.96 L
