Liz puts a 1 kg weight and a 10 kg on identical sleds. She then applies a 10N force to each sled. Which does not explain why the

smaller weight accelerate faster?
A) The larger mass spends more force overcoming inertia.
B) The smaller weight exerts less frictional force to overcome.
C) The acceleration depends directly on the mass of the object.
D) The motion of the sled relates to action of unbalanced forces.

Answer: C

Explanation:
The acceleration does not depend directly on the mass of the object.

Newton's Law is Force = Mass x Acceleration.
Therefore, Acceleration  = Force/Mass

The same force is applied in both cases.
Therefore acceleration is inversely proportional to mass.
As mass decreases, acceleration increases.

A person yells across a canyon and hears an echo 2.5 seconds later. The air temperature is 21°C. How far away is the canyon wall
Alchen [17]

Answer: The canyon wall is 850 m away from the person

Explanation:

Well, the speed of sound V in air at 21 \° C is defined as 343.60 m/s, this can be calculated by the following equation:

V=\sqrt{\frac{\gamma R T}{M}} (1)

Where:

\gamma=1.4 is the Heat capacity ratio for air

R=8.314 J/mol.K is the Universal Gas constant

T=21 \° C+273.15=294.15 K is the temperature in Kelvin

M=0.029 kg/mol is the air molar mass

V=\sqrt{\frac{(1.4)(8.314 J/mol.K)(294.15 K)}{0.029 kg/mol}}

V=343.60 m/s (2)

Now that we know the speed of sound, we can use the following equation to find the distance between the person and the canyon wall:

V=\frac{d}{t} (3)

Where:

d is the distance between the person and the canyon wall

t=2.5 s is the time it takes to the sound wave to travel from the person and then go back

Isolating d:

d=V.t (4)

d=(343.60 m/s)(2.5 s) (5)

Finally:

d=850 m

With time running out in a game, Rachel runs towards the basket at a speed of 2.5 meters per second and from half-court, launche
finlep [7]

Answer:

Rachel(2.5,0)

ball(6.5,4.7)

b.R=10.15m/s, 27.57deg

Explanation:

The reference angle of Rachel is 00^{0} while the ball is at 36^{0}

resolving rachel's speed to the horizontal, we have

Ux=2.5cos0

Ux=2.5m/s

resolving rachel's speed to the vertical we have,

Uy=2.5sin0

Uy=0

for the ball

resolving the speed to its horizontal component

Ux=8cos36

Ux=6.5m/s

Uy=8sin36

Uy=4.7m/s

Rachel(2.5,0)

ball(6.5,4.7)

To get the resultant of their speed

Add the horizontal speed of rachel to that of the ball to get the total horizontal speed

Add the vertical speed of rachel and the ball to get the total vertical speed component

TUx=2.5+6.5=9M/S

TUy=0+4.7=4.7m/s

R=\sqrt{(TUx^2+TUy^2}

R=\sqrt{(9^2+4.7^2}

R=\sqrt{(103)}

R=10.15m/s

the direction

tan\alpha=TUy/TUx

tan\alpha=4.7/9

\alpha=tan^-1(0.522)

\alpha=27.57deg

A boat sends an ultrasound signal of frequency 30 kHz, and receives the signal after 6 s. If the speed of sound in water is 1500
natka813 [3]

Answer:

4500

Explanation:

hey there!

first we convert the khz to hz=30000hz

we use the formula 2d=distance×time

2d=1500×6

d=9000/2=4500

i think this is the right answer....

hope this helps u :)
