Answer

Acceleration

Acceleration Means rate of Change of velocity with respect to time.

acceleration due to gravity

when a body falls freely means no other force act on it except gravitational force that time velocity of object does not remains constant but it changes as it approaches towards the ground it means body get accelerated  and this acceleration which is gained by the body due to gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity it is denoted by g. Acceleration due to gravity is different on different planet. SI unit of  is m/s^2 . On earth its standard value is 9.80665m/s^2.

Two trains on separate tracks move toward each other. Train 1 has a speed of 145 km/h; train 2, a speed of 72.0 km/h. Train 2 bl
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Therefore,

The frequency heard by the engineer on train 1

f_{o}=603\ Hz

Explanation:

Given:

Two trains on separate tracks move toward each other

For Train 1 Velocity of the observer,

v_{o}=145\ km/h=145\times \dfrac{1000}{3600}=40.28\ m/s

For Train 2 Velocity of the Source,

v_{s}=90\ km/h=90\times \dfrac{1000}{3600}=25\ m/s

Frequency of Source,

f_{s}=500\ Hz

To Find:

Frequency of Observer,

f_{o}=?  (frequency heard by the engineer on train 1)

Solution:

Here we can use the Doppler effect equation to calculate both the velocity of the source v_{s} and observer v_{o}, the original frequency of the sound waves f_{s} and the observed frequency of the sound waves f_{o},

The Equation is

f_{o}=f_{s}(\dfrac{v+v_{o}}{v -v_{s}})

Where,

v = velocity of sound in air = 343 m/s

Substituting the values we get

f_{o}=500(\dfrac{343+40.28}{343 -25})=500\times 1.205=602.64\approx 603\ Hz

Therefore,

The frequency heard by the engineer on train 1

f_{o}=603\ Hz

How much would a spring scale with k = 120 N/m stretch, if it had a 3.75 J of work done<br> on it?
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

0.25m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Spring constant , K  = 120N/m

Work done  = 3.75J

Unknown:

magnitude of extension = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

           Work done  = \frac{1}{2}kx²  

K is the spring constant

x is the extension

               3.75  =  \frac{1}{2} x 120x²

               3.75  = 60x²

                x²  = 0.06

                x = √0.06  = 0.25m
