   Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)

   = (5 / second) x (30 mm)

   = 150 mm/second = 0.15 meter/second .

components of the speed of the coin is given as

$v_x = v cos60$

$v_x = 6.4 cos60 = 3.2 m/s$

$v_y = vsin60$

$v_y = 6.4 sin60 = 5.54 m/s$

now the time taken by the coin to reach the plate is given by

$t = \frac{\delta x}{v_x}$

$t = \frac{2.1}{3.2}$

$t = 0.656 s$

now in order to find the height

$h = vy * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

$h = 5.54 * 0.656 - \frac{1}{2}*9.8*(0.656)^2$

$h = 1.52 m$

so it is placed at 1.52 m height

A 0.2 kg hockey park is sliding along the eyes with an initial velocity of -10 m/s when a player strikes it with his stick, caus

babunello [35]

Answer:

The impulse applied by the stick to the hockey park is approximately 7 kilogram-meters per second.

Explanation:

The Impulse Theorem states that the impulse experimented by the hockey park is equal to the vectorial change in its linear momentum, that is:

$I = m\cdot (\vec{v}_{2} - \vec{v_{1}})$ (1)

Where:

$I$ - Impulse, in kilogram-meters per second.

$m$ - Mass, in kilograms.

$\vec{v_{1}}$ - Initial velocity of the hockey park, in meters per second.

$\vec{v_{2}}$ - Final velocity of the hockey park, in meters per second.

If we know that $m = 0.2\,kg$ , $\vec{v}_{1} = -10\,\hat{i}\,\left[\frac{m}{s}\right]$ and $\vec {v_{2}} = 25\,\hat{i}\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]$ , then the impulse applied by the stick to the park is approximately:

$I = (0.2\,kg)\cdot \left(35\,\hat{i}\right)\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]$

$I = 7\,\hat{i}\,\left[\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right]$

The impulse applied by the stick to the hockey park is approximately 7 kilogram-meters per second.

1 watt = 1 joule per sec

11,000 Watts = 11,000 joules per sec

A box of volume V has a movable partition separating it into two compartments. The left compartment contains 3000 particles, the

storchak [24]

Answer:

a) V1 = 4V - V2/3 and V2 = 4V - 3V1

b) Δe = 4000V - 4000V2 + 9000V1

Explanation:

Let V represent volume of the box containing the two compartments

V1 represents compartment of the left compartment

V2 represents compartment of the right compartment

Momentum of the compartments before impact:

3000V1 + 1000V2

Momentum of the compartments after impact:

V(3000 + 1000) = 4000V

a) To obtain the volume of each compartment, that is, V1 and V2, we say:

Momentum before impact = Momentum after impact

3000V1 + 1000V2 = 4000V

∴ V1 = 4000V - 1000V2/3000 = 4V - V2/3

Also, V2 = 4000V - 3000V1/1000 = 4V - 3V1

b) Change in entropy,Δe = 4000V1 - 1000V2

By substituting the V1 and V2, we have:

4000(4V - V2)/3 - 1000(4V - 3V1)

16000V - 4000V2/3 - 4000V + 3000V1

16000V - 4000V2 - 12000V + 9000V1

∴ Δe = 4000V - 4000V2 + 9000V1
