15+3=18km/hour
Think about it like this. The boat is going 15 faster than the river, and the river is going 3 faster than the bank, so the boat is going 18 faster than the river bank
Answer:
2.49 * 10^(-4) m
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Frequency, f = 4.257 MHz = 4.257 * 10^6 Hz
Speed of sound in the body, v = 1.06 km/ = 1060 m/s
The speed of a wave is given as the product of its wavelength and frequency:
v = λf
Where λ = wavelength
This implies that:
λ = v/f
λ = (1060) / (4.257 * 10^6)
λ = 2.49 * 10^(-4) m
The wavelength of the sound in the body is 2.49 * 10^(-4) m.
We know the formulas for momentum and energy. But they both involve the mass of
the object, and we don't know the mass of the baseball. What can we do ?
It's not a catastrophe. The question only asks which one is bigger. If we're clever,
we can answer that without ever knowing how much the momentum or the energy
actually is. We know that both baseballs have the same mass, so let's just call it
' M ' and not worry about what it really is.
<u>Momentum of anything = (mass) x (speed)</u>
Momentum of the first baseball = (M) x (4 m/s) = 4M
Momentum of the second one = (M) x (16 m/s) = 16M
The second baseball has 4 times as much momentum as the first one has.
<u>Kinetic energy of anything = 1/2 (mass) x (speed squared)</u>
KE of the first baseball = 1/2 (M) x (4 squared) = 8M
KE of the second one = 1/2 (M) x (16 squared) = 128M
The second baseball has 16 times as much kinetic energy as the first one has.
