Which set of terms represent mechanical waves?

A 6 kilogram block in outer space is moving at -100 m/s (to the left). It suddenly experiences three forces as shown below (in t

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

x = 1474.9 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces must be equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

We must understand that when forces are applied on the body, they tend to slow the body down to stop it.

So as the body continues to move to the left, it is slowing down. Therefore we must calculate this deceleration value using Newton's second law. We must perform a sum of forces on the x-axis equal to the product of mass by acceleration. With leftward movement as negative and rightward forces as positive.

ΣF = m*a

$10 +12*sin(60)= - 6*a\\a = - 3.39[m/s^{2}]$

Now using the following equation of kinematics, we can calculate the distance of the block, before stopping completely. The initial speed must be 100 [m/s].

$v_{f}^{2} =v_{o}^{2}-2*a*x$

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0 (the block stops)

Vo = initial velocity = 100 [m/s]

a = - 3.39 [m/s²]

x = displacement [m]

$0 = 100^{2}-2*3.39*x\\x=\frac{10000}{2*3.39}\\x=1474.9[m]$

A space shuttle orbits Earth at a speed of 21,000 km/hr. How far will it travel in 5 hours?

lianna [129]

Answer:

105000km

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed of shuttle = 21000km/hr

Time of travel = 5hrs

Unknown:

The distance covered by the space shuttle;

Solution:

Distance is the length of the path traveled.

Distance = speed x time

Input the parameters and solve;

Distance = 21000km/hr x 5hrs

Distance = 105000km

A rock is thrown upward with a velocity of 18 meters per second from the top of a 38 meter high cliff, and it misses the cliff o

Roman55 [17]

The rock would be at a point 12 m from water at a time <u>4.8 s</u>.

Take the origin of the coordinate system at the top of the cliff. It is thrown upwards with a velocity u. When the rock is at a point 12 m from water, calculate the vertical displacement of the rock from the origin.

$y= -38m- (-12 m)=-26 m$
