i honestly don't even know but yahoo answers says :

Impulse causes momentum to change, which means:

Impulse = change in momentum, or in equation form:

F∆t = (mv)2 – (mv)1

so p (impulse)= mass times velocity so the mass is 2,000kg and the velocity is 12,000N/5s.

speed is basically velocity so you have to calculate how many newtons per one second, so 12,000/5s-- just divide the numerator and denominator by 5. Also, velocity and speed are measured in N/s.

A car moving at 60 mph slams on its brakes to stop before hitting a deer. Another identical car traveling at 60 mph slows to a s

Happy Holidays!

Recall that:

Impulse = Change in Momentum = mass × change in velocity

Since both cars are identical and have the same initial velocity of 60 mph, them breaking to a stop means that they both experience the same change in velocity.

Thus, both of the cars' impulses are equal.

Trumpeter A holds a B-flat note on the trumpet for a long time. Person C is running towards the trumpeter at a constant velocity

Vikki [24]

You didn't mention it, but the trumpeter herself has to be standing still.

<span>Person C, the one running towards the trumpeter, hears a pitch
that is higher than B-flat. (A)

Person B, the one running away from the trumpeter, hears a pitch
that is lower than B-flat.

Person D, the one standing still the whole time, hears the B-flat.</span>

What is the kinetic energy of a 120-cm thin uniform rod with a mass of 450 g that is rotating about its center at 3.60 rad/s?

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

1.05 J.

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion. The S.I unit of kinetic energy is Joules (J). The formula of kinetic energy is given as

Ek = 1/2mv²................. Equation 1

Where Ek = kinetic energy, m = mass of the uniform rod, v = liner velocity of the rod.

But,

v = αr .......................... Equation 2

Where α = angular velocity of the rod, r = radius of the circle.

Given: α = 3.6 red/s, r = 120/2 = 60 cm = 0.6 m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = 3.6(0.6)

v = 2.16 m/s.

Also given: m = 450 g = 0.45 kg.

Substitute into equation 1

Ek = 1/2(0.45)(2.16²)

Ek = 1.05 J.

An ambulance with a siren emitting a whine at 1790 Hz overtakes and passes a cyclist pedaling a bike at 2.36 m/s. After being pa

Deffense [45]

Answer:

The speed of the ambulance is 4.30 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of the ambulance, f = 1790 Hz

Frequency at the cyclist, f' = 1780 Hz

Speed of the cyclist, v₀ = 2.36 m/s

let the velocity of the ambulance be 'vₓ'

Now,

the Doppler effect is given as:

$f'=f\frac{v\pm v_o}{v\pm v_x}$

where, v is the speed of sound

since the ambulance is moving towards the cyclist. thus, the sign will be positive

thus,

$v_x=\frac{f}{f'}(v+v_o)-v$

on substituting the values, we get

$v_x=\frac{1790}{1780}(343+2.36)-343$

vₓ = 4.30 m/s

Hence, <u>the speed of the ambulance is 4.30 m/s</u>
