R=ut+gt^2/2
r- displacement (height to find)
u - initial speed (zero)
t - time taken

r=0*5.8 + 10*5.8^2 /2 = 168.2 meters

How does increasing energy affect the amplitude of a wave?​
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave

Explanation:

A high energy wave is characterized by a high amplitude; a low energy wave is characterized by a low amplitude.  The energy imparted to a pulse will only affect the amplitude of that pulse.

Hope this helped!!!

A car and a train move together along straight, parallel paths with the same constant cruising speed v(initial). At t=0 the car
kogti [31]

Answer:

t_1 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

t_2 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

Δd = v_it_1 = v_i^2/a_i

Explanation:

As v(t) = v_i + at, when the car is making full stop, v(t_1) = 0 . a = -a_i . Therefore,

0 = v_i - a_it_1\\v_i = a_it_1\\t_1 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

Apply the same formula above, with v(t_2) = v_i and a = a_i, and the car is starting from 0 speed,  we have

v_i = 0 + a_it_2\\t_2 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

As s(t) = vt + \frac{at^2}{2}. After t = t_1 + t_2, the car would have traveled a distance of

s(t) = s(t_1) + s(t_2)\\s(t_1) = (v_it_1 - \frac{a_it_1^2}{2})\\ s(t_2) = \frac{a_it_2^2}{2}

Hence s(t) = (v_it_1 - \frac{a_it_1^2}{2}) + \frac{a_it_2^2}{2}

As t_1 = t_2 we can simplify s(t) = v_it_1

After t time, the train would have traveled a distance of s(t) = v_i(t_1 + t_2) = 2v_it_1

Therefore, Δd would be 2v_it_1 - v_it_1 = v_it_1 = v_i^2/a_i

A force vector F1 points due east and has a magnitude of 200N. A second force F2 is added to F1. The resultant of the two vector
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The second vector \vec{F_2} points due West with a magnitude of 600N

Explanation:

The original vector \vec{F_1} points with a magnitude of 200N due east, the Resultant vector \vec{R} points due west (that's how east/west direction can be interpreted, from east to west) with a magnitude of  400N. If we choose East as the positive direction and West as the negative one, we can write the following vectorial equation:

\vec{F_1}+\vec{F_2}=\vec{R}\implies\vec{F_2}=\vec{R}-\vec{F_1}=-400N-200N=-600N

With the negative sign signifying that the vector points west.
