Answer:
the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
we know that;
The terminal velocity is proportional to the square root of weight.
v ∝ √W
v = k√W
the proportionality constant depends upon the surface area and the density of the medium (like air). The coffee filters can be stacked such that the resulting area is roughly unchanged. So, the constant of proportionality k is also unchanged
v/√W = constant
v₂/√W₂ = v₁/√W₁
v₂ = v₁√(W₂ / W₁ )
given that;
v₁ = 0.856 m/s,
W₂ = 14W₁; meaning 14 coffee filters have 14 times the weight of a single coffee filter
so we substitute
v₂ = 0.856 √(14W₁ / W₁ )
v₂ = 0.856 √( 14( W₁/W₁)
v₂ = 0.856 √( 14(1)
v₂ = 0.856 √( 14 )
v₂ = 0.856 × 3.741657
v₂ = 3.2 m/s
Therefore, the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s
It’s cause by the fact that the earth is tilted 23.5 degrees
1. a. longitudinal waves.
There are two types of waves:
- Transverse waves: in transverse waves, the oscillations of the wave occur in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave
- Longitudinal waves: in longitudinal waves, the oscillations of the waves occur parallel to the direction in which the waves are travelling.
So, these types of waves are called longitudinal waves.
2. d. a medium
There are two types of waves:
- Electromagnetic waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of electric and magnetic field, and they can travel both in a medium and also in a vacuum (they do not need a medium to propagate)
- Mechanical waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of the particles in a medium, so they need a medium to propagate - therefore, the correct choice is d. a medium
3. a. AM/FM radio
Analogue signals consist of continuous signals, which vary in a continuous range of values. On the contrary, digital signals consist of discrete signals, which can assume only some discrete values. For AM and FM radios, signals are transmitted by using analogue signals.
Answer:
Distance travelled is 7 meters and the displacement is 3 meters
