The solution to the problem is as follows:
<span>First, I'd convert 188 mi/hr to ft/s. You should end up with about ~275.7 ft/s.
So now write down all the values you know:
Vfinal = 275.7 ft/s
Vinitial = 0 ft/s
distance = 299ft
</span>
<span>Now just plug in Vf, Vi and d to solve
</span>
<span>Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2 a d
</span><span>BTW: That will give you the acceleration in ft/s^2. You can convert that to "g"s by dividing it by 32 since 1 g is 32 ft/s^2.</span>
-- Equations #2 and #6 are both the same equation,
and are both correct.
-- If you divide each side by 'wavelength', you get Equation #4,
which is also correct.
-- If you divide each side by 'frequency', you get Equation #3,
which is also correct.
With some work, you can rearrange this one and use it to calculate
frequency.
Summary:
-- Equations #2, #3, #4, and #6 are all correct statements,
and can be used to find frequency.
-- Equations #1 and #5 are incorrect statements.
From tables, the speed of sound at 0°C is approximately
V₁ = 331 m/s (in air)
V₃ = 5130 m/s (in iron)
Distance traveled is
d = 100 km = 10⁵ m
Time required to travel in air is
t₁ = d/V₁ = 10⁵/331 = 302.12 s
Time required to travel in iron is
t₂ = d/V₂ = 10⁵/5130 = 19.49 s
The difference in time is
302.12 - 19.49 = 282.63 s
Answer: 283 s (nearest second)
The answer is d.8,120 foot-pounds
Since we know that
Gravitational potential energy = mass × height ×gravity
then
GPE = 1.5 kg x 0.500 m x 9.8m/s^2
therefore
GPE = 7.35 J
