2. It is now 10:29 a.m., but when the bell rings at 10:30 a.m. Suzette will be late for French class for the third time this wee

k. She must get from one side of the school to the other by hurrying down three different hallways. She runs down the first hallway, a distance of 35.0 m, at a speed of 3.50 m/s. The second hallway is filled with students, and she 4covers its 48.0 m length at a speed of 1.20 m/s. The final hallway is empty, and Suzette sprints its 60.0 m length at a speed of 5.00 m/s. How long does it take Suzette to make to class? Did Suzette beat the bell?

Answer:

62 seconds
no

Explanation:

The total travel time Suzette experiences is the sum of the times in each hallway. Using

time = distance/speed

we can add the times.

(35.0 m)/(3.50 m/s) +(48.0 m)/(1.20 m/s) +(60 m)/(5.0 m/s)

= 10 s + 40 s + 12 s

= 62 s

It takes Suzette 62 seconds to get to class. She does not beat the bell.

Compared to a plane gravitational pull on the ground to 7 miles in sky is what

Citrus2011 [14]

When you're in an airplane that's 7 miles up off the ground, the strength of gravity plunges to only 99.6 percent of its strength all the way down on the ground. A big heavy person, who weighs 200 pounds down at the airport, weighs only 199 pounds 4.7 ounces in a plane at the altitude of 7 miles.

The stopcock connecting a 2.14 L bulb containing oxygen gas at a pressure of 8.19 atm, and a 9.84 L bulb containing krypton gas

marshall27 [118]

Answer : The final pressure of the system in atm is, 3.64 atm

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$

or,

$P_1V_1+P_2V_2=P_fV_f$

where,

$P_1$ = first pressure = 8.19 atm

$P_2$ = second pressure = 2.65 atm

$V_1$ = first volume = 2.14 L

$V_2$ = second volume = 9.84 L

$P_f$ = final pressure = ?

$V_f$ = final volume = 2.14 L + 9.84 L = 11.98 L

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$8.19atm\times 2.14L+2.65atm\times 9.84L=P_f\times 11.98L$

$P_f=3.64atm$

Therefore, the final pressure of the system in atm is, 3.64 atm

A 3-kg rock is thrown upward with a force of 200 N at a location where the local gravitational acceleration is 9.79 m/s2 . Deter

expeople1 [14]

Answer: $56.87m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

If we make an analysis of the net force $F_{net}$ of the rock that was thrown upwards, we will have the following:

$F_{net}=F_{up}-W$ (1)

Where:

$F_{up}=200N$ is the force with which the rock was thrown

$W$ is the weight of the rock

Being the weight the relation between the mass $m=3kg$ of the rock and the acceleration due gravity $g=9.79m/s^{2}$ :

$W=m.g=(3kg)(9.79m/s^{2})$ (2)

$W=29.37 N$ (3)

Substituting (3) in (1):

$F_{net}=200N-29.37 N$ (4)

$F_{net}=170.63 N$ (5) This is the net Force on the rock

On the other hand, we know this force is equal to the multiplication of the mass with the acceleration, according to Newton's 2nd Law:

$F_{net}=m.a$ (6)

Finding the acceleration $a$ :

$a=\frac{F_{net}}{m}$ (7)

$a=\frac{170.63 N}{3kg}$ (8)

Finally:

$a=56.87m/s^{2}$

Does wavelength affect the energy of a wave?

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Not quite

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength. That means that waves with a high frequency have a short wavelength, while waves with a low frequency have a longer wavelength

What determines the strength of a wave?

Wave height is affected by wind speed, wind duration (or how long the wind blows), and fetch, which is the distance over water that the wind blows in a single direction. If wind speed is slow, only small waves result, regardless of wind duration or fetch.

So,

As Wavelength increases, The energy of the wave spreads and it decreases
