An electronic line judge camera captures the impact of a 57.0-g tennis ball traveling at 32.2 m/s with the side line of a tennis
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

average acceleration is 1.365 × 10^{4} m/s²

Explanation:

given data

initila speed  u = -32.2 m/s

final speed v = 21.6 m/s

time taken t = 0.00394 s

solution

we get here average acceleration that will be express as

v = u + at    ..........................1

put here value and we get

21.6 = -32.2 + a × 0.00394

solve it we get

a = 1.365 × 10^{4} m/s²

so average acceleration is 1.365 × 10^{4} m/s²

The change in pitch of a train's horn as it passes while you are standing still can be explained by
alexgriva [62]

The change in pitch of a train's horn as it passes while you are
standing still can be described by the Doppler effect, but that
doesn't explain it.

The driver of a car slams on the brakes, causing the car to slow down at a rate of
sdas [7]

Answer:

A. The time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. The initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Final velocity (V) = 0

Time (t) =?

Initial velocity (U) =?

A. Determination of the time taken for the car to stop.

Let us obtain an express for time (t)

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (V)/time(t)

a = V/t

Velocity (V) = distance (s) /time (t)

V = s/t

a = s/t^2

Cross multiply

a x t^2 = s

Divide both side by a

t^2 = s/a

Take the square root of both side

t = √(s/a)

Now we can obtain the time as follow

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Time (t) =..?

t = √(s/a)

t = √(256/26)

t = 3.14 secs

Therefore, the time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. Determination of the initial speed of the car.

V = U + at

Final velocity (V) = 0

Deceleration (a) = –26ft/s2

Time (t) = 3.14 sec

Initial velocity (U) =.?

0 = U – 26x3.14

0 = U – 81.64

Collect like terms

U = 81.64 ft/s

Therefore, the initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

Jasper made a list of the properties of electromagnetic waves. Identify the mistake in the list. Electromagnetic Wave Properties
Nata [24]

Answer:

Statement 2 is wrong

Explanation:

To check the statements in this exercise, let's describe the main properties of electromagnetic waves. Let's describe the characteristics

* they are transverse waves

* formed by the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields

* the speed of the wave is the speed of light

with these concepts let's review the final statements

1) True. Formed by the oscillation of the two fields

2) False. They are transverse waves

3) True. Can travel by vacuum as they are supported by oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields

4) True. They all have the same speed of light

Statement 2 is wrong

One end of an insulated metal rod is maintained at 100 ∘C and the other end is maintained at 0.00 ∘C by an ice–water mixture. Th
lozanna [386]

Answer:

k=105.0359\times 10^4\,W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

temperature at the hotter end, T_H=100^{\circ}C

temperature at the cooler end, T_C=0^{\circ}C

length of rod through which the heat travels, dx=0.7\,m

cross-sectional area of rod, A=1.1\times 10^{-4}\,cm^2

mass of ice melted at zero degree Celsius, m=8.7\times 10^{-3}\,kg

time taken for the melting of ice, t=15\times60=900\,s

thermal conductivity k=?

By Fourier's Law of conduction we have:

\dot{Q}=k.A.\frac{dT}{dx}......................................(1)

where:

\dot{Q}=rate of heat transfer

dT= temperature difference across the length dx

Now, we need the total heat transfer according to the condition:

we know the latent heat of fusion of ice,  L = 334000\,J.kg^{-1}

Q=m.L

Q=8.7\times 10^{-3}\times 334000

Q=2905.8\,J

Now the heat rate:

\dot{Q}=\frac{Q}{t}

\dot{Q}=\frac{2905.8}{900}

\dot{Q}=3.2287\,W

Now using eq,(1)

3.2287=k\times 1.1\times 10^{-4} \times \frac{100}{0.7}

k=205.4606\,W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
