The amplitude of a wave corresponds to its maximum oscillation of the wave itself.
In our problem, the equation of the wave is
We can see that the maximum value of y(x,t) is reached when the cosine is equal to 1. When this condition occurs,
and therefore this value corresponds to the amplitude of the wave.
All living things are made up of cells. Each cell's individual function helps the organism collectively function. They are the most basic as they can be self-contained. And there is no other particle smaller that can function on it's own.
Answer:
a. 37.7 kgm/s b. 0.94 m/s c. -528.85 J
Explanation:
a. The initial momentum of block 1 of m₁ = 1.30 kg with speed v₁ = 29.0 m/s is p₁ = m₁v₁ = 1.30 kg × 29.0 m/s = 37.7 kgm/s
The initial momentum of block 2 of m₁ = 39.0 kg with speed v₂ = 0 m/s since it is initially at rest is p₁ = m₁v₁ = 39.0 kg × 0 m/s = 0 kgm/s
So, the magnitude of the total initial momentum of the two-block system = (37.7 + 0) kgm/s = 37.7 kgm/s
b. Since the blocks stick together after the collision, their final momentum is p₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v where v is the final speed of the two-block system.
p₂ = (1.3 + 39.0)v = 40.3v
From the principle of conservation of momentum,
p₁ = p₂
37.7 kgm/s = 40.3v
v = 37.7/40.3 = 0.94 m/s
So the final velocity of the two-block system is 0.94 m/s
c. The change in kinetic energy of the two-block system is ΔK = K₂ - K₁ where K₂ = final kinetic energy of the two-block system = 1/2(m₁ + m₂)v² and K₁ = final kinetic energy of the two-block system = 1/2m₁v₁²
So, ΔK = K₂ - K₁ = 1/2(m₁ + m₂)v² - 1/2m₁v₁² = 1/2(1.3 + 39.0) × 0.94² - 1/2 × 1.3 × 29.0² = 17.805 J - 546.65 J = -528.845 J ≅ -528.85 J
The temperature on the Earth would increase.
The temperature of the stratosphere would decrease.
